Strategic Commitment by Sultanate of Oman towards 2050 Net-Zero Emission: Current Environmental Initiatives and Future Needs

Global warming is a major concern to humanity due to its massive environmental impact. Studies emphasize low-carbon issues such as emissions policy, carbon taxation, carbon emissions trading, and emissions accounting and reduction (Gao et al., 2014). This paper will cover one of the main commitments...

In October 2022, Oman joined the current effort to protect the environment and reach net zero by 2050. The country has already implemented many environmental measures however, more effort is required to achieve the net-zero emission target. In addition, the paper will outline and investigate the current global efforts to meet the commitment. Also, it will cover the current environmental work conducted in Oman. The paper will also evaluate the challenges and requirements to reach net zero in Oman. � 2023 Authors. All rights reserved.
