AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoCarbon Markets: Jordan is advancing plans for a national carbon-credit registry and voluntary international trading framework, aiming to finish the policy by year-end. The Environment Ministry also plans to designate several sites and valleys as protected areas and provide JD1 million to support nature reserves. Water and Emissions: Experts say recovering water during carbon capture could offer a limited industrial option for water-scarce Jordan, but local trials must show it is affordable; it would not replace water reuse, desalination or cutting network losses. Weather Risks: Unstable conditions are bringing scattered rain and possible thunderstorms, with flash-flood risks in southern and eastern valleys and low-lying areas. Waste in the Jordan Valley: More than 70 volunteers in Sheikh Hussein are working to change littering habits, not just clean roadsides, through a community “Waste Bag” initiative. Environmental Reform: Jordan has achieved 20 of 44 targets under a World Bank-backed investment and reform program, with about $316 million in results recorded from August 2025 to August 2026.
