The law introduces essential tools as a mandatory emissions monitoring system (MRV) and sector-specific adaptation plans, which collectively demonstrate the UAE\u2019s strong commitment to climate action at the national level and position it as a leading voice for climate governance in the MENA region.<\/p>\n\n<p>Ghiwa Nakat, Executive Director of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/mena\/en\/\"><u>&nbsp;Greenpeace MENA<\/u><\/a>, stated:<br><em>\u201cThis law marks a bold and progressive move in the UAE\u2019s climate leadership. By institutionalizing emissions monitoring and climate adaptation, the UAE is setting a compelling example for countries across the region. We commend this important step and look forward to seeing its full implementation through measures that reflect the ambition of the law and respond to the pressing realities of the climate crisis.<\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n<p>She added: <em>\u201cThe UAE\u2019s strategic action sends a powerful signal across the region and globally\u2014that climate resilience and sustainable development are now national imperatives. With robust frameworks for emissions reduction and adaptation in place, the UAE is well-positioned to lead by example.\u201d<\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n<p>This legislation offers the UAE a significant opportunity to build on the historic &#8216;UAE Consensus&#8217; reached at COP28 in Dubai, which included unprecedented language on the need for a just, orderly, and equitable transition away from fossil fuels in energy systems. The significance of the law lies in its formalization of the country\u2019s climate commitment through legally binding legislation. To fully realize the law\u2019s potential and support the UAE\u2019s net-zero goals and latest climate action commitments under the Paris Agreement (its Nationally Determined Contribution or NDC), Greenpeace MENA encourages the UAE to follow up this legislation with robust and bold implementation resolutions. These could include setting clear emissions reduction targets for major sectors like energy and transport that directly support the commitments outlined in the NDC. In addition, prioritizing ambitious renewable energy deployment over reliance on carbon capture will ensure the UAE meets its net-zero goals sustainably.<\/p>\n\n<p>As the UAE enters a new era of climate governance, the true measure of success will be its ability to translate this legal milestone into deep, measurable emissions cuts and a just transition, setting a transformative precedent for the MENA region and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New legislation makes the UAE the first in the MENA region to establish a legal framework for climate resilience, emissions accountability, and regional leadership ahead of COP30.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":16952,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_planet4_optimize_post_is_variant":false,"_planet4_optimize_experiment_name":"","_planet4_optimize_variant_name":"","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"p4_og_title":"","p4_og_description":"","p4_og_image":"","p4_og_image_id":"","p4_seo_canonical_url":"","p4_campaign_name":"","p4_local_project":"","p4_basket_name":"","p4_department":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[277,277],"tags":[101],"p4-page-type":[97],"class_list":{"0":"post-16955","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"hentry","7":"category-greenpeace-middle-east-and-north-africa","9":"tag-greenpeace","10":"p4-page-type-press-release"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -

Moving our work online has definitely had an impact on our relationships with colleagues, volunteers, and external partners Somehow it feels like we\u2019ve been invited to become part of each other\u2019s lives at home: parents, partners, children and pets have now become regular guests on our video calls. I\u2019m proud to be working with a team that appreciates all its members in all the colour and diversity they bring to the table!
