Workshop: ACCOUNTING FOR CARBON

TUESDAY 3 NOVEMBER, 2015 │ LONDON
10:00 AM – 12:40 PM │ EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL MARKETS (EEM) | 1 FORE STREET

This workshop aims at giving an overview of the main results of the book ACCOUNTING FOR CARBON: Monitoring, Reporting, and Verifying Emissions in the Climate Economy recently published by Cambridge University Press. This book gathers expertise from I4CE – Institute For Climate Economics, CITEPA, INRA, South Pole Group and NPL. Based on the most recent developments in climate science and deeply-rooted economics theory, the book describes how MRV is currently practiced in the 15 most important policy frameworks – national greenhouse gas inventories supervised by the UN, the EU Emissions Trading Scheme, the Clean Development Mechanism etc. – and compares on the basis of key criteria such as scope, cost, uncertainty and flexibility.

European Carbon Certification: the unlikely alliance

The future European carbon certification framework is under intense debate. The first meeting of the expert group in charge of supporting the Commission has raised criticisms on the composition and mandate of this group, and the discussions have taken an unexpected turn by achieving the feat of bringing NGOs and CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) industrialists to an agreement against natural carbon sinks, those of our forests or our agricultural soils. Where does this unlikely alliance come from?

Net Zero Industry Act: Europe in the race for cleantech

The European Union still has a lot of work to do. Yesterday the European Commission published its Net Zero Industry Act, a piece of its response to the American Inflation Reduction Act, a necessary but still insufficient building block to keep the European Union in global cleantech race. It will also have to complete a number of directives and regulations to deliver its Green Deal. The EU election in 2024 is fast approaching, time is of the essence.
