This report examines the impacts of wasting and improper waste management on climate change. It finds that reducing waste sent to landfills and incinerators could reduce greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to closing 21% of US coal-fired power plants. A zero waste approach prioritizing reduction, reuse, recycling and composting is identified as one of the fastest, cheapest and most effective strategies for mitigating climate change in the short term. The report calls for new policies and tools to support climate-friendly waste management.
The document provides details about the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP17) that took place in Durban, South Africa from November 28th to December 11th 2011. Over 12,400 participants from governments, international organizations, and civil society attended the conference. The conference included sessions of the Conference of the Parties and aimed to establish a new international climate agreement as the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol was coming to an end.

Lend Lease implements sustainability initiatives across its projects globally, including its work with the Department of Defense through the Military Housing Privatization Initiative. Some key sustainability programs introduced at Lend Lease communities include:
1) Installing solar photovoltaic systems capable of generating up to 18 megawatts to provide renewable energy for residents in Hawaii.
2) Conserving over 30 million gallons of water in Colorado through xeriscaping and conservation campaigns in response to drought conditions.
3) Launching a waste reduction program called SYNERGY at Campbell Crossing in Kentucky to educate residents on sustainable practices.
Carbon credits were created as part of the Kyoto Protocol to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Countries and organizations are assigned emissions allowances and can trade carbon credits if their emissions are lower than their allowance. Activities like renewable energy projects and tree planting can generate carbon offsets that can be sold as carbon credits. The value of carbon credits comes from creating a market that monetizes the cost of polluting. Nations, companies, and individuals can buy carbon credits to offset their emissions.

The Nevada Wilderness Project is working to promote "smart from the start" renewable energy development on public lands in Nevada that provides environmental protections. This includes engaging with developers to identify projects that offer land protections and restoration funding. A particular focus is the proposed SWIP transmission line, which could help distribute energy from solar, wind and geothermal projects across Nevada. The organization is also advocating for protecting other lands as wilderness to offset development impacts. Long-time conservationist Terri Robertson has joined to help advocate for protecting Gold Butte from development through wilderness and national conservation area designations.
The document discusses sustainable consumption and the challenges of meeting needs while protecting natural resources for current and future generations. It talks about the need to change production, consumption, and distribution patterns to address poverty and environmental degradation. Consumers have a responsibility to push for more sustainable consumption practices that achieve economic prosperity, environmental quality, and social justice. The second part provides examples of how various common waste items take a long time to degrade in the environment and promotes sustainable consumption practices like reducing waste, reusing items, and properly disposing of hazardous materials.
1) Tropical peatlands store large amounts of carbon and play an important role in the water cycle but are being degraded through drainage, deforestation, and conversion to agriculture.
2) Drainage of peatlands leads to high CO2 emissions and subsidence issues over the long term. The 1997 fires in Indonesian peatlands caused over $7 billion in economic damages and significant health impacts.
3) Rewetting of degraded peatlands through techniques like dam building and paludiculture can reduce CO2 emissions and allow forest restoration, while also providing economic opportunities through carbon markets and sustainable land use. International investment and improved policies are needed to prioritize conservation and rehabilitation of peatlands.
The document discusses the importance of recycling in schools. It outlines some of the key advantages of recycling, such as creating jobs as recycling increases and requiring less energy than extracting new resources. However, it also notes some disadvantages, such as the initial expense of setting up recycling programs. The document advocates for schools to install more recycling bins to encourage students to recycle and help protect the local and global environment. Recycling reduces pressure on non-renewable resources and helps conserve forests that provide wood and paper products.
The Green City Clean Industry Initiative proposes investing in sustainable agroforestry, green cities, and clean industries through a socially responsible investment model. The initiative would use a "seed to market" cooperative microlending model to fund integrated biorefinery projects that convert municipal and agricultural waste into renewable fuels and products. These projects would help cities adopt the UN Green Cities Declaration to become more sustainable in areas like energy, waste reduction, transportation, and environmental health.
In 2014 MEFL collaborated with Moreland City Council to determine the target and develop the strategy to shift to a zero carbon future. Moreland’s Zero Carbon Evolution (ZCE) strategy indicates that to be doing our fair share, we need to reduce our carbon emissions by 22% (on 2011 levels) by 2020. It is an ambitious target, requiring action and investment from all sectors of the community.
The five key strategies underpinning ZCE are:
Generating local renewable energy
Using energy efficiently
Low-emissions transport
Minimising the urban heat island effect
Activating the community to reduce emissions.
MEFL’s role
MEFL is delivering this strategy in partnership with Council and are leading implementation of three aspects of the strategy – generating local renewable energy, using energy efficiently and activating the community. We are using our expertise and experience facilitating local community action to deliver this major step change in emission reduction.

Carbon credits can help reduce carbon emissions by financing projects that remove or absorb carbon from the atmosphere anywhere in the world. Buying carbon credits compensates for an organization's unavoidable emissions today. Examples of carbon offset projects include forestry projects, renewable energy projects, and projects that improve water and waste management. These projects generate multiple environmental, social, and economic benefits in addition to reducing carbon emissions. Carbon credits play an important role in supporting clean energy and community development projects worldwide.
This document discusses various causes and effects of climate change as well as actions individuals and organizations are taking to address it. It provides 12 simple actions individuals can take to mitigate climate change, such as using green power, saving energy, adopting a plant-rich diet, and avoiding flying. It also outlines organizations working on environmental issues and describes international agreements like the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement where countries commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions to limit global warming. The document emphasizes both mitigation of and adaptation to climate change will be needed to effectively address its challenges.
The document discusses climate action (SDG 13) and taking urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. It provides an overview of climate change, including that greenhouse gas emissions are over 50% higher than in 1990 and global warming is causing long-lasting changes that threaten irreversible consequences if unchecked. It notes that people around the world are suffering from extreme weather and that vulnerable groups are most severely impacted. The goal of climate action is to integrate measures into national policies and strategies to reduce greenhouse gases, build resilience, and lower carbon footprints.
Understanding the climate change and sustainable developmentRuwanNishanthaGamage
The document discusses climate change, sustainable development, and solutions. It provides background on climate science, impacts of climate change, key global agreements like the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement, and national commitments like Sri Lanka's NDC's. It emphasizes that climate change and sustainable development are interlinked, and achieving their shared goals will require urgent action, inequality reduction, and commitment from all parties given the challenges and limited time remaining. Overall solutions discussed include reducing emissions and waste, behavioral and policy changes, technology transfers, and drawdown projects targeting areas like refrigerants, renewable energy, and reforestation.
Global warming is causing sea levels to rise in a coastal city, threatening low-lying areas of the city. To address this, mitigation and adaptation measures are proposed. Mitigation involves reducing greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable development, green transportation, boosting energy efficiency, renewing renewables, phasing out fossil fuels, and managing forests. Adaptation includes expanding water storage, adjusting agriculture, protecting infrastructure, diversifying tourism, and strengthening energy systems. Together, mitigation and adaptation efforts by various groups can help address the challenges of climate change.
REDD+ aims to provide funding to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. It has expanded to include conservation, sustainable forest management, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks. Forested wetlands could make large contributions to carbon sequestration and storage but realizing their potential faces challenges, including developing robust monitoring of carbon, biodiversity, and socioeconomic impacts, and ensuring participation and benefits for local communities. Practical guidance is needed to implement restoration that achieves multiple objectives of carbon sequestration, ecosystem services, and community support.
This document summarizes strategies for adapting to and mitigating climate change. It discusses approaches such as resilient agricultural systems, land-use planning, and solar radiation management as adaptation strategies. Wetland restoration, afforestation, changing agricultural practices, and international agreements are provided as examples of mitigation strategies. The document also examines the Paris Climate Agreement and debates around delaying emissions reductions through concepts like negative emissions.
The document discusses environmental sustainability and sustainable development goals. It provides information on key goals like affordable clean energy, no poverty, climate action, zero hunger, and the Paris Agreement. Case studies on the environmental management systems of Panasonic and McKinsey & Company are presented. The importance of environmental sustainability to businesses is discussed. Ways individuals can contribute to sustainability are listed as planting trees, supporting sustainability organizations, carpooling, recycling, and minimizing waste.

The brochure summarises the forthcoming mandatory approach to BNG, the opportunities BNG presents and what it might mean for developers, landowners and Local Planning Authorities.
The brochure introduces the concept of net gain, highlighting the benefits it can deliver for nature, people and the economy. It also draws attention to resources that can be accessed now, with further information, guidance and advice on the approach as it develops.
The document discusses REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), a UN-led effort to create financial value for the carbon stored in forests. It aims to provide incentives for developing countries to reduce forest-related emissions and invest in low-carbon development. The UN-REDD Programme supports countries in preparing national REDD+ strategies, measuring and monitoring forest carbon stocks, and moving from readiness phases to implementation of their strategies through payments for emission reductions. REDD+ goes beyond deforestation to include conservation, sustainable forest management, and carbon stock enhancement.
The document discusses how actions to mitigate climate change through reducing deforestation and enhancing carbon stocks in agricultural and degraded landscapes can also help smallholder farmers adapt to climate change by increasing food security, productivity and biodiversity conservation. It describes agroforestry projects that combine climate mitigation, adaptation, and development benefits as an opportunity to achieve multiple goals at once. Community engagement and standards like the Climate, Community and Biodiversity Standards are important for project quality, transparency and equitable outcomes.
Futre Of Agroforestry Science Dg Seminarguestd2d93b8
The document discusses how major institutions are increasingly recognizing agroforestry's potential to address issues like climate change, poverty, and land degradation. Climate change in particular is driving interest, as agriculture and forestry account for 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. The author argues agroforestry can transform farming by increasing carbon storage through reduced tillage and more trees. Adopting agroforestry worldwide could offset 1 gigaton of annual carbon emissions. The document predicts agroforestry will become seen as central to addressing climate change and sustainability goals.
The document discusses how climate change is driving major institutions like the World Bank to partner with the World Agroforestry Centre (WAC) due to agroforestry's potential role in mitigation and adaptation. It notes that 20% of greenhouse gases come from land use change and deforestation. To address climate change, agriculture systems will need to reverse carbon losses by sequestering more carbon above and below ground through practices like agroforestry. The WAC is well-positioned to provide solutions through its research on integrating trees into agricultural landscapes to improve livelihoods and the environment. The WAC is in the process of developing a new strategic plan focused on using science to understand and promote agrofore
The document discusses how major institutions are increasingly recognizing agroforestry's potential to address issues like climate change, poverty, and land degradation. Climate change in particular is driving interest, as agriculture and forestry account for 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. The rising threat of climate change means farming systems worldwide will need to reverse carbon emissions through practices like agroforestry that store carbon in soils and vegetation. Agroforestry thus offers a way to simultaneously combat climate change and poverty through sustainable land use.
REDD+ is a mechanism to incentivize developing countries to protect and better manage their forests. It aims to make standing forests more valuable than cleared forests by creating a financial value for the carbon stored in trees. Developed countries would pay developing countries carbon offsets for maintaining their forest carbon stocks. REDD+ was established in 2005 within the UNFCCC to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. It pursues plans and programs to identify drivers of forest loss, encourage sustainable forest management, and enhance carbon stocks. REDD+ investment can help transition economies toward green development by valuing ecosystem services provided by forests. Implementation of REDD+ involves designing national plans, economic and political factors, and assessing impacts on forests and

6. Why CCN is Driving a Call For ACTION!
In the late 1990s scientists reached a consensus that global
warming was a major cause for concern. Many scientists (and
people) now consider that Global Warming is the single greatest
environmental threat of the 21st Century.
Global Warming directly
results in climatic changes
around the world. 9 out of the
last 10 years were the hottest
in recorded history.
With the build up of
Greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere more of the suns
radiation is being retained.
Causing the surface
temperature to warm.
Warm oceans absorb less
CO2. Additionally higher
levels of condensation have
created massive flooding,
and severe snow storms like
never before.
7. 29 billion tons of carbon
dioxide is emitted by human
activity per year from burning
fossil fuels and burning the
worlds forests.
Hundreds of scientists and
policymakers, who comprise a
United Nations climate panel,
have found with ninety per
cent certainty that human
activities cause climate
change, but even with ever-‐
increasing evidence some
people still remain sceptical.
8. Australia. Global warming is no longer some future
It is happening right now!
We are currently witnessing extreme weather shifts
resulting in massive flooding, bush fires, severe
droughts, & bleaching of barrier reef.
9. A growing number of policy makers are starting to consider Global
Warming and Climate Change as nothing less than a national
security threat, according to an article in the New York Times.
11. WHY ARE RAINFORESTS SO IMPORTANT?
Climate Change.
They provide vital ecosystem
benefits for the whole world.
They store water, regulate rainfall
and provide a home to over half
But more importantly, they also
play a crucial role in climate
change.
Billions of dollars a year are now being pledged to help developing
countries stop rainforest destruction, acquire clean energy and adapt
to climate change.
12. REDD: a new strategy put
forward by the UNFCCC
Reducing
Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation
REDD is a new process designed to help put a value on the protection and conservation of
REDD involves a intimate involvement of all stakeholders, including governments,
Indigenous Peoples and other forest-‐dependent communities, in a national and
international programme supported by the United Nations Framework Convention on
Climate Change.
The REDD Programme is designed to put a value on credits by stopping the destruction of
rainforests. Rainforest destruction accounts for nearly a quarter of the carbon and
greenhouse gases entering the atmosphere.
generations to benefit from.
REDD will be the most sought after and supported form of Carbon Credits in coming years,
as nations and large corporations and consumers start to chose REDD as their preferred
way to offset their carbon pollution.

17. Carbon Market Potential
"Carbon will be the world's biggest commodity market, and it could
-‐
The Carbon Market industry is likely to create vast new opportunities for
people to be able to create an income from.
Unlike other businesses worldwide the Carbon Market will become more
than just another product but a necessity as governments move to
impose carbon restrictions.
As more and more governments start to regulate their country's
emissions, and as more companies start to limit their emissions, either
voluntarily or by legal requirement, the demand for available carbon
credits will steadily rise -‐ and so will the price!
We need only refer to the law of supply and demand to see that this
industry is on the brink of a major explosion.
18. How you can be involved!
1) Reduce your personal or business Carbon
Footprint: recycle, reuse, reduce
2) Support and buy from companies that are
carbon neutral
3) Take a stand on ecological and conservation
issues
4) Offset your carbon footprint with REDD
5)Invest into new Green Technologies and other
eco friendly projects
Now, what if there was one company
that could help you achieve all these
goals, but also incentivised you for
your efforts?
