Highlights – Key Figures on Climate France and Worldwide 2016 Edition

10 November 2015 - Special issues - By : François-Xavier DUSSUD / Irénée Joassard (MEDDE) / Florine WONG / Jérôme DUVERNOY

In line with previous years, but with a sharper focus that the issue deserves, the 2016 edition of “Key figures on climate” has been written in the context of the 21st Conference of the Parties on Climate Change (COP 21) to be held in Paris from 30 November to 11 December 2015.

This latest version has been updated and expanded relative to the 2015 edition. The sector-based analysis of GHG emissions has thus been supplemented by a double page on agriculture and emissions from Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF). A page
on carbon pricing around the world has been added. Some pages devoted to global data have also been spread across two to make them easier to read.

However, 2013 data for GHG emissions at the international level are not yet available. Unlike past years, this data will be made available by the European Environment Agency (EEA) later in the year.

This publication, through its structure and choice of topics, aims to inform as wide a readership as possible about climate change, its mechanisms, causes and effects, as well as the international schemes that have been established to limit them.

In addition to this paper edition, a smartphone application StatClimat was developed. It presents the main key figures on climate change in France and worldwide.

    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.
