Presented by Daniel Murdiyarso, CIFOR at Online Workshop – Capacity Building on the IPCC 2013 Wetlands Supplement, FREL Diagnostic and Uncertainty Analysis, April 13th, 2020
This presentation looks at the challenge facing Irish farming both to grow output and limit greenhouse gas emissions from its largely livestock-based agriculture. It argues that putting a price on carbon emissions from agriculture would help to level the playing field with other land-based activities which can sequester carbon.

Introduction to the EU Emission Trading SystemLeonardo ENERGY
The EU ETS Directive is the centrepiece of the European Union’s climate policy. It has created the European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), which is a unique and quite com-plex system.
The EU ETS establishes a scheme for greenhouse gas emissions allowances trading within 31 European countries. Its functioning is based on a “cap and trade” principle, which sets a cap on the total amount of greenhouse gases that can be emitted by all participating installations. Within the cap, companies receive or buy emission allowances which they can trade with one another as needed.
Today, the EU ETS covers almost half of EU’s emissions and is part of the daily life of a large number of companies.
The EU ETS Directive represents the backbone of EU’s action against climate change, but it also works in combination with several other pieces of legislation in a delicate balance.
Our European system has very much evolved during the last 15 years. The existing legislation operates until 2020. It has set a greenhouse gas emissions reduction target in line with EU’s 2050 low carbon economy roadmap. The time has also come to discuss the post-2020 period and the European Commission will soon put forward a new proposal with a 2030 emissions reduction target.
Being the first one to have been setup, the European scheme is analysed and taken as exam-ple in other regions of the world where emissions trading starts being implemented.
This course aims at giving a presentation of the EU ETS Directive, the main features of the sys-tem, the balance with other pieces of EU legislation and at offering perspectives for the on-coming review of the scheme.
Ricardo-AEA provided technical support to the European Commission in assessing the environmental, social and economic impacts of policy proposals to reduce GHG emissions from the international shipping sector.
Despite some recent progress in the IMO negotiations with respect to technical measures for new ships, the emissions of existing vessels are still not regulated. At the European level, a range of targets have been set concerning economy-wide GHG emission reductions. International shipping is the only sector not included in EU level GHG reduction targets. The modelling projections developed for this project show that under the baseline scenario CO2 emissions from European maritime transport would increase by over 50% between 2010 and 2050. As such, there is a pressing need to take action to control the growing GHG emissions from the international maritime sector.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

SUBMISSION BY LATVIA AND THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION ON
BEHALF OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND ITS MEMBER STATES
Riga, 6 March 2015
Subject: Intended Nationally Determined Contribution of the EU and its
Member States
Introduction
1. The EU and its 28 Member States are fully committed to the UNFCCC
negotiating process with a view to adopting a global legally binding
agreement applicable to all Parties at the Paris Conference in December
2015 in line with the below 2°C objective.
Intended nationally determined contribution (INDC) of the EU and its
Member States
2. The Lima Conference confirmed the Warsaw decision that all Parties ready
to do so should communicate their INDC in the first quarter of 2015 in a
manner that facilitates the clarity, transparency and understanding of the
INDC.
3. The EU and its Member States wish to communicate the following INDC.
The EU and its Member States are committed to a binding target of an at
least 40% domestic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
compared to 1990, to be fulfilled jointly, as set out in the conclusions by
the European Council of October 2014. In line with the Lima Call for
Climate Action, in particular its paragraph 14, the following quantifiable
information is hereby submitted:

Market Based
Mechanisms
No contribution from international credits.
3. 3
Planning Process Domestic legally-binding legislation already in place for
the 2020 climate and energy package. The existing
legislation for land use, land-use change and forestry (EU
Decision 529/2013) is based on the existing accounting
rules under the second commitment period of the Kyoto
Protocol. Legislative proposals to implement the 2030
climate and energy framework, both in the emissions
trading sector and in the non-traded sector, to be
submitted by the European Commission to the Council
and European Parliament in 2015-2016 on the basis of
the general political directions by the European Council,
taking into account environmental integrity.
Fair and ambitious The target represents a significant progression beyond its
current undertaking of a 20% emission reduction
commitment by 2020 compared to 1990 (which includes
the use of offsets). It is in line with the EU objective, in the
context of necessary reductions according to the IPCC by
developed countries as a group, to reduce its emissions by
80-95% by 2050 compared to 1990. Furthermore, it is
consistent with the need for at least halving global
emissions by 2050 compared to 1990. The EU and its
Member States have already reduced their emissions by
around 19% on 1990 levels while GDP has grown by more
than 44% over the same period. As a result, average per
capita emissions across the EU and its Member States
have fallen from 12 tonnes CO2-eq. in 1990 to 9 tonnes
CO2-eq. in 2012 and are projected to fall to around 6
tonnes CO2-eq. in 2030. The emissions in the EU and its
Member States peaked in 1979.
Key Assumptions
Metric Applied Global Warming Potential on a 100 year timescale in
accordance with the IPCC's 4th Assessment Report.
Methodologies for
Estimating
Emissions
IPCC Guidelines 2006 and IPCC 2013 KP Supplement.
Approach to
accounting for
agriculture,
forestry and other

4. The EU and its Member States urge all other Parties, in particular major
economies, to communicate their INDCs by the end of March 2015 in a
manner that facilitates their clarity, transparency and understanding.
5. The EU and its Member States request the UNFCCC Secretariat to publish
the INDC of the EU and its Member States on its website and to take it into
account when preparing the synthesis report on the aggregate effect of the
INDCs communicated by Parties.
6. The EU and its Member States look forward to discussing with other
Parties the fairness and ambition of INDCs in the context of the below 2°C
objective, their aggregate contribution to that objective and on ways to
collectively increase ambition further.
