Solomon Islands has very low per capita emissions, at just: 1.2 tCO2 per person in 2015 based on projected emissions for 2015. This is fourteen times less than the average per capita emissions of Australia /capita), and less than the estimated level required to stay below 1.5 oC (as compared to 2oC) of warming, of around e/capita1 . Thus, any contribution from Solomon Islands is more than fair, and must be considered ambitious, given Solomon Islands national circumstances. With high vulnerability to climate change impacts Solomon Islands has placed equal importance on mitigation of and adaptation to climate change and recognises the need for developing low carbon economy to achieve its sustainable development objectives.
