Evaluation of Desertification and Erosion Combat Efforts With Regards to
                      Paris Agreement Commitments and Net Zero Emission 2053 Targets

               Table  1  shows  the  contributions  of  Türkiye’s  strategic  approaches  within
            the  scope  of  combating  desertification  and  erosion  in  line  with  the  Paris
            Climate  Agreement  and  Türkiye’s  2053  Net  Zero  Emission  targets.  These
            strategies highlight both the national and global benefits of efforts to combat
            desertification and erosion.
