Memorandum for the Petitioners 1161 D.4. In order to remedy past and existing human rights abuses and violations of the rights of the Filipino people resulting from climate change , the respondent Carbon Majors’ plans must: E. r r a) Communicate commitments to abide by the “Polluter pays” principle;739 and b) Provide a mechanism to pay their fair share of the costs of climate-related damages and climate change adaptation.740 The Honorable Commission should monitor respondent Carbon Majors on an ongoing basis and report whether on periodically respondents’ actions are consistent with both international and national human rights laws and requirements 9.19. Petitioners respectfully submit that the Honorable Commission’s mandate to monitor human rights violations in the context of climate change includes not only the victims, but also those responsible for human rights harms (e.g., the respondent Carbon Majors). Thus, in addition to the aforementioned guidelines for monitoring, which can similarly be adopted for respondent Carbon Majors and other business enterprises or entities that contribute to climate-related human rights harms, the Honorable Commission should ensure an ongoing monitoring of the activities of the respondents and said entities and periodically report their actions and /or inactions that are not consistent with both international and national human rights laws and requirements.
