Bangkok unveils new action plan to promote decarbonization

Thailand’s capital city of Bangkok has unveiled a new action plan to promote decarbonization with help from the Japanese city of Yokohama. The new action plan was revealed on Friday with Yokohama Mayor in attendance. The Japanese city helped draw up the plan, which details projects to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 2030.

They include installing more solar power panels on buildings and improving public transportation. Bangkok Governor said that Thai capital can implement its action plan as quickly as possible by learning from Yokohama’s many success stories, such as engaging public participation.
