Memorandum for the Petitioners | 143 IX RECOMMENDATIONS AND WAYS FORWARD But we are a developing country, as it was pointed out a while ago. We contribute very little to the carbon emissions, and yet we are the recipient of the harm done by carbon emissions that are produced by forty-seven (47) major carbon producers from the developed worlds1 Ms. Loretta Ann Rosales, Former Chair of the Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines (December 2018) 9. 1. Given that the petitioners have conclusively established by evidence the responsibility of the respondent Carbon Majors for the climaterelated human rights harms that have been and continue to be suffered by the petitioners and Filipinos more generally, the Honorable Commission must positively act according to its mandate to prevent further impacts, impairments, infringements, abuses, and /or violations of their fundamental rights (hereinafter, “human rights harms” ). — r — 9.2. Although the Honorable Commission is not a court of law, it is a tribunal of equity and has the ability to find the respondents responsible for the climate-related harms they have, individually or collectively as an industry, contributed to and continue to perpetuate. As discussed, the Honorable Commission is well within its authority to issue a Resolution addressing the following prayers in the Petition and additional reliefs as will be recommended and further elaborated in this section: r a) Issue a finding on the responsibility of the respondent Carbon Majors for human rights impacts, impairments, infringements, abuses, and /or violations resulting from the effects of climate change in the Philippines; b) Host an official online repository of this National Inquiry’s full record that is searchable and accessible to all; c) Monitor people and communities in the Philippines made vulnerable to the impacts of climate change on an ongoing basis; Testimony of Fonner Chair Loretta Ann Rosales, TSN dated 11- 12 December 2018, p . 88 , available at http://chr.gov .ph/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/NICC-TSN- December- l 1 - to- 12-2018-Metro- ManilaPhilippines.pdf ( last accessed on 12 September 2019). 667
