Abstract

Malaysia is one of the world's most vulnerable countries to global warming and climate change, mainly brought on by the release of greenhouse gases (GHG) from the burning of fossil fuels (Knoema, 2021). In 2015, Malaysia committed to the Paris Climate Accord, working with the rest of the world to reduce carbon emissions and keep the rise in temperature to 1.5 °C. The increased use of electricity, transportation, and the growing rate of industrialization are among the factors that lead to a higher temperature in the atmosphere. Thus, several initiatives have been taken by the government to overcome the issue. This paper aims to provide a brief overview of the carbon emission trends and initiatives of the government toward global warming in Malaysia.
