The Director-General, National Council on Climate Change, Salisu Dahiru, said in Lagos.
Dahiru spoke to newsmen on the sidelines of a technical workshop on Agro Climate Resilience in Semi-Arid Landscapes project.
Dahiru said that President Muhammadu Buhari,  in creating the council,  adopted an innovative approach because the council is going to be the main vehicle that would drive his climate change policy and agenda.
The DG said that carbon tax was done all over the world because of the grave existential threat of climate change.
He said that there would be the establishment of a climate change fund, where the government, the private sector and development partners would make contributions.
