The Youth Climate Council Ghana (YCC) strongly opposes Parliament’s proposal to use carbon credit revenues for an MP pension fund. This move misdirects crucial climate finance away from sustainability efforts, undermining Ghana’s commitments under the Paris Agreement. Carbon credit revenues must be used for climate action, not personal benefits.

We call on the Government of Ghana, Parliament, and relevant authorities to:

1. Immediately withdraw the proposal to use carbon credit revenues for an MP pension fund.
2. Ensure that all climate finance, including carbon credit revenues is strictly allocated to climate mitigation and adaptation projects.
3. Uphold Ghana’s international climate commitments by prioritizing sustainable development and environmental resilience.
    

We are calling on persons below the age of 35 to sign this petition to protect Ghana’s climate future and demand accountability in the use of climate funds!
