Environmental Protection Levy to Fund Jamaica's Climate Resilience
Original: Environmental Protection Levy to Help Fund Jamaica’s Climate Resilience
Jamaica's government says an Environmental Protection Levy will be used to help finance the island's climate resilience efforts. The levy is positioned as a funding stream for measures protecting the country against climate-related threats such as hurricanes, flooding and coastal erosion. Details on rates, collection and specific programmes to be financed have not yet been widely reported, and public reaction is still limited.
Why now: Jamaica is highly exposed to hurricanes and climate impacts, making new climate funding measures newsworthy
