Low-Carbon Development: Opportunities for Nigeria

The Federal Government of Nigeria has adopted an ambitious strategy to make Nigeria the world?s 20th largest economy by 2020. Sustaining such a pace of growth will entail rapid expansion of the level of activity in key carbon-emitting sectors, such as power, oil and gas, agriculture and transport. I...
