It is already March and many of us might have given up on our New Year's resolutions. However, unlike our yearly New Year's resolution, we cannot simply give up and postpone our climate action. We need to be consistent in our actions to achieve our global climate goals. One of our climate goals is pursuing efforts to limit the increase of the global average temperature to 1.5 degrees Celsius. This is found in the Paris Agreement which President Rodrigo Duterte recently ratified. To show our commitment to the Paris Agreement, we are bound to submit the Philippines' Nationally Determined Contribution that will outline our course of action to the goal of the Paris Agreement. 

In this episode, we are joined by our mentor and Convenor of Aksyon Klima, Mr. Rodne Galicha, to talk about the developments on our Nationally Determined Contribution and how the youth can contribute to its process and implementation. 

PS. This podcast episode was recorded on February 25, 2021. By then, the Philippines’ NDC was already submitted to the President for signing.
