The Green Report: The communities behind PH’s just energy transition

MANILA, Philippines – The annual United Nations Climate Change Conference ended last November with a disappointing text that didn’t even mention fossil fuels — three decades since these climate talks started.

In this episode of the The Green Report, Rappler’s Liveable Cities editor Jee Geronimo talks to environment and climate reporter Iya Gozum, researcher-writer Shay Du, and Community Growth and Development specialist Aidan Bernales about how the Philippines’ just energy transition is shaping up in communities most affected by it.
