1) Geohazard Mapping and Assessment Program

OBJECTIVES

  • Identify areas in the country which are

susceptible or vulnerable to various geologic hazards;

  • Provide information to various

stakeholders to lessen or mitigate the impact of geologic hazards.

2) National Greening Program (NGP)

One of the key underlying risk drivers of climate change is the loss of forest cover.

In 2005, the DENR-Forest Management Bureau (DENR_FMB) and the FAO-FRA announced that the Philippine forest cover increased to 7.391 million ha. In 2010, our forests supposedly increased to 7.665 million ha. This covers only around 25.6% of the country’s 30 million ha land area, way below the 54% ideal forest cover for tropical countries.

Support and Assistance Needed in the Local level:

A) Financial support for the establishment of Climate Change Centers B) Financial support for the proposed inventory of methane gas emission at the dumpsite in Tacloban City and other municipalities C) Financial support for the closure and rehabilitation of existing sites D) Issues and concerns associated with Waste to Energy Projects (such as sophisticated and expensive technology to capture toxic chemicals produced by Incinerators)

The following areas for capacity building were identified:

  • Knowledge and competency of assessment and implementation of local/regional

priorities for habitat protection and restoration

  • Training in integrated vulnerability assessment in order to formulate adaptation
  • ptions at different scales
  • Capacity on climate-fit crop programming
  • Climate-based cropping mixing for sustainable farming and maximization of

production in highly vulnerable agricultural areas Technical Assistance includes:

  • Downscale climate models to individual islands
  • Land capability evaluation tools for improved land use selection
  • Models for assessment of watershed and ecosystem functions and services

under future climate and socio-economic scenarios

  • Integrated natural resources information system technologies

“Many of us have already been taking pioneering action, particularly in terms of climate finance. Let us not only enhance and intensify such work, but also fully leverage our solidarity in ensuring that the remaining barriers towards concerted action and knowledge sharing are broken down—so that we may in turn link arms and march on together towards a more resilient, more inclusive future” President Benigno S. Aquino III President of the Philippines
