Malaysia has set the ambitious target of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, which will require a concerted effort by stakeholders of all levels. The Malaysia Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation comes in as the focal agency to coordinate stakeholder involvement towards this aim, including participation at the UN Climate Change Conference. We speak to Shareen Dato’ Abdul Ghani, the MGTC Chairperson of the Board on their efforts to advance the national green technology and climate change agenda.
