Both climate change adaptation and mitigation are critical considerations in Asia’s developing countries.  Indeed, the region’s geography makes its population highly vulnerable to sea level rise and extreme weather events.  Yet the region is also among the highest contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions in the world.  USAID is working with countries at regional and bilateral levels to accelerate investment in clean energy technologies and improve forest management.  USAID also provides training, knowledge sharing and cooperation to facilitate the region’s transition to low emission development and help communities adapt to climate change.
