Booklet for sub-national stakeholders heading towards the COP 21 Agricultural and forestry focus

23 July 2015 - Special issues

At a time when the international community is striving to construct an overall framework for the future fight against climate change, regional actors have
already been taking measures for several years to mitigate their greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the changing climate. The purpose of this booklet is to present the situation, tools and actions of French local authorities in this field. It will attempt to offer open, direct and informative access to the most up-to-date knowledge on climate change to encourage and facilitate the continuation of these approaches. It has been jointly produced by I4CE, ONERC and Météo-France, in partnership with ADEME and AFD which have also contributed to developing its content. DGEC and research laboratories such as CIRED and the CSTB also contributed with their expertise.

This booklet is aimed at local authorities, as well as public and private actors working alongside them, and addresses four themes identified by colour:
• The impacts of climate change
• Climate policies at a global, European and French level
• Economic tools available to local authorities
• Agricultural and forestry focus

    A decade of commitment to advancing economic policies for the climate

    This year marks an important milestone for I4CE: we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary. Setting sails the year the Paris Agreement was adopted, our mission was clear from the outset: to promote effective, efficient and fair policies for the climate transition.  Since then, we have focused our economic analysis on public policies with an emphasis on assessing the investment needs and policy options for the transition. Our ambition has been to advance the public debate on climate with facts and figures, promoting long-term investment plans as an essential tool to turn political ambitions into reality. Over the years, we have applied this approach to a growing number of policy areas and expanded our geographical scope from France to Europe and internationally.

    2030 and Beyond: Budgeting Europe’s Climate Transition

    The next long term EU budget will take us through the 2030 goal posts, by when GHG emissions should be down by 55%. It will also lay the groundwork for investing in a climate-neutral future for the continent towards the yet-to-be agreed objectives for 2040. So, when the European Commission presented its proposal for a €2 trillion multiannual financial framework (MFF) just before the summer break, there was good reason to carefully study the details from the perspective of closing the EU’s climate investment deficit.
