The document discusses the moral justification of co-benefits from climate change strategies. It provides two examples: (1) The city of Hasselt implemented free public transportation, resulting in improved mobility for residents and a shift to more sustainable transportation. (2) Norwegian cities saw a boost in private electric vehicle usage through incentives like charging stations and toll exemptions, supporting Oslo's goal of reducing emissions. The document examines whether co-benefits like these can be morally justified and what the best approach is, noting questions around rights to mobility and sustainability that require consideration.
Urban action on climate change - UN-Habitat perspectiveRafael Tuts
Climate change is undoubtedly one of the most urgent, complex and challenging issues of our time. The 2015 Paris Agreement provides an ambitious and innovative framework for stabilizing the earth’s climate. Cities and local authorities have a key role to play in its implementation. The lecture will discuss the role of the United Nations in supporting urban action to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change impacts. It will provide a wide range of examples of how UN-Habitat and partners have stimulated the acceleration of urban climate change action in various thematic areas across the world over the past decade. It will conclude by distilling guiding principles for effective urban action to address climate change.
Green infrastructure in jakarta basic understanding and implementation effort...Oswar Mungkasa
The implementation of green infrastructure (GI) in Indonesia accelerated by public awareness of the importance of conservation of natural resources and ecosystems. One of the Indonesian government’s efforts to apply the principles of GI in urban areas in a structured and massive manner is through the Green City Development Program (P2KH) Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR). The approach taken is Green Planning and Design, Green Open Space, Green Energy, Green Water, Green Waste, Green Building, Green Transportation, Green Community. The city that is the case study for discussion is Jakarta. Jakarta Smart City, Green Buildings, Urban Agriculture, and Child Friendly Integrated Public Space (RPTRA) are programs that successfully implemented. The implementation GI program easily accepted if based on the community.

CUD Conference BREAKOUT Agenda - Amsterdam 23-24 September 2008Shane Mitchell
Breakout sessions agenda detailing speakers and themes across the two day conference bringing together thought leaders from business, city governments and academia to share knowledge, experiences and collaborate to drive forward the CUD program.
Imagine a world in which people and goods can move with minimum impact on the local environment and climate. Imagine an intelligent transport system with smart infrastructure and smart, connected vehicles powered predominantly by renewable energy, and with enlightened end-users: private individuals and enterprises. Imagine a system that is actually based on user demand. That is what we would like to see.
To put mobility and transport on the track to sustainability, we have to improve energy efficiency, switch to renewable energy and more efficient modes of mobility, and, most importantly, increase smartness at all levels of the system. In practice, the last point means smart and efficient mobility services, cooperative systems, and intelligent vehicles and infrastructure.
VTT has a toolbox and the expertise to tackle all the key challenges of smart low-carbon mobility. And, to really make an impact, we are cooperating with all the key stakeholders in the field. Let us re-invent mobility and co-create a better future together!
Connected and Sustainable Mobility WhitepaperShane Mitchell
Urban mobility problems are rapidly turning into an urban mobility crisis.
ICT offers enormous capabilities, but most are vastly underutilized in urban transportation.
Public- and private-sector organizations must partner in adopting a vision for the sustainable city of the future where transportation continues to play a key role in enabling mobility—yet is dramatically transformed by innovative ICT.

Urban EcoMap provides urban communities with relevant data regarding the primary GHG contributors—transportation, waste, and energy. Building awareness, fostering a sense of community connection and responsibility, and providing actions for citizens to take will enable the reduction of GHG in cities. In addition, it will support decision-making for policymakers and business organizations, as well as for urban design, development and operations, and the research of urban, earth, and social scientists.
Begun in fall 2008, the pilot project is a collaborative effort involving Cisco IBSG—the global strategic consulting arm of Cisco—and San Francisco’s Department of the Environment (SF Environment). The organizations are jointly applying an urban services platform approach toward which visionary cities and the ICT industry are moving.
Urban EcoMap is a landmark innovation and a key element of the Connected Urban Development program’s Connected and Sustainable Cities framework. San Francisco is the first city worldwide to launch Urban EcoMap, introduced on May 21st 2009.

Co-
benefits
Co-benefits: Emerging advantages of the implementation of measures regarding
the lowering of GHG emissions.
Impact
level
Category of co-benefit Description
Global
GHG Emissions Reduction GHG emissions reduced mainly through cutting fossil fuels consumption
and improving energy efficiency
Local
Air quality improvement Reduction of pollutants such as SO2, NOx, PM, CO.
Water quality improvement Reduction of pollutants in water such as COD and BOD, etc. GHG
emissions (e.g. CO2, CH4) are also reduced in the process of water
quality improvement.
Health Reduced medical/hospital visits, reduced lost working days, reduced
acute and chronic respiratory symptoms, reduced asthma attacks,
increased life expectancy.
Economic Increase in local GDP and employment rate. Improved welfare.

Co-benefits and their Moral Dimension
II.2- The moral side of co-benefits
Examples from scientific literature:
• ‘Counting good: quantifying the co-benefits of improved efficiency in buildings’ (Ürge-
Vorsatz, Novikova et al. 2009)
• ‘The forgotten benefits of climate change mitigation: innovation, technological
leapfrogging, employment, and sustainable development.’ (Jochem, Madlener 2003)
• Co-benefits are presented as valid reasons for GHG’s emissions strategies;
• Sometimes presented as more important than climate change mitigation. E.g. Health
Improvements;
• There is a shared belief, that co-benefits are good and desirable.

Co-benefits and their Moral Dimension
II.2- The moral side of co-benefits
‘Hasselt Samen Anders Mobiel’
‘By making public transport free of charge it became possible to guarantee the right to
mobility for all residents.’(Lambrechts 2001)
‘We have seen a shift from mobility to sustainable mobility. … (it) stands for the development
of a form of mobility that takes into account the needs of the current generation without
endangering the mobility needs of the future generation.’ (Lambrechts 2001)
Questions:
• Is there a right to (sustainable) mobility?
• Does the right to sustainable mobility include or not environmental
concerns?
• Can the precautionary principle be applied?
• How does the future generations’ concern fit here?

Co-benefits and their Moral Dimension
II.2- The moral side of co-benefits
‘The boost of private electric vehicles usage’
‘The city (Oslo) (…) aims to be a sustainable urban community where everyone has a
right to clean air, clean water and access to attractive outdoor recreation areas.’(Røsland 2013)
Question:
• Can there be a right to an urban sustainable
community?
o Are there other co-benefits not accounted for?
o Are those unaccounted co-benefits part of (other)
established rights?
Which moral tradition an better justify the co-benefits?

III.1- Unexpected effects of co-benefits
In:http://news.mongabay.com/bioenergy/2007/11/report-energy-saving-and-efficiency.html
Question:
How to (still) morally justify the co-benefits?
• The prove of existence;
No studies were conducted to now exactly the new number of private vehicles circulating in Hasselt.
• Overall impact of co-benefits;
‘Travellers transferred from cars, but cyclists also started using the free bus.’ (Canters, 2014)
• (Possible) rebound effect

III.2- What matters the most?
• Climate change mitigation vs Co-benefits;
• What (moral) guidelines for the choice between different climate
change mitigation strategies with different co-benefits?;
• How to deal with trade-offs situations?
