Internationally-acclaimed scientist, Professor Flannery, is in the country, providing in-depth overview of climate change and initiatives PNG can embark on.

To stay within the Paris climate agreement's 2℃ warming threshold, most experts agree that carbon must be removed from the atmosphere as well as reduce emissions.
