Morocco has developed a National Plan against Global Warming (PNRC) that was presented at the COP 15 held in Copenhagen in 2009. The Plan provides for reducing greenhouse gas emissions through the development and diversification of clean energy sources and the implementation of adaptation measures that rely mainly on the water strategy and Green Morocco Plan for Agriculture, also launched in 2009. The Plan includes mitigation, adaptation and cross-sectoral measures and is based on two strategic pillars : mitigation of greenhouse gases emissions via the implementation of a low Carbon development
policy, in particular through the very ambitious "solar project of 2000 MW in the Moroccan desert"; and the evaluation of the vulnerability and adaptation to climate change impacts. With the National Plan against global warming, Morocco has set up a permanent process for managing these policies which enables making significant progress and ensuring effective monitoring and governance.
