To show compliance with the Compact cities have to pass 4 phases: 1) Register Commitment by mayor; 2) Take Inventory within one year of commitment (overall GHG inventory with Compact standard; identify climate risk; report); 3) Create Targets and Establish A System of Measurement within two years (update GHG inventory including breakdown by sources and sectors; set target to reduce GHG emissions; conduct "climate change vulnerability assessment" using the Compact standard; and report ) 4) Establish Action Plan within 3 years (how to deliver commitment to reduce GHG emissions and adapt to climate change) 5) Issuance of "Compliant" badge on annual basis to signify commitment and progressl basis to signify commitment and progress  +

Goals The Compact consolidates cities’ climate aThe Compact consolidates cities’ climate actions through consistent and transparent public reporting of greenhouse gas data. This data-driven platform, which is similar to the one used by nations as they create national climate plans, will help direct resources and policies that better support and accelerate local climate actions. This, in turn, will drive and showcase innovative city level climate action, and inspire change at the global level. Through the Compact, cities are: - Increasing their visibility as leaders responding to climate change; - Demonstrating their commitment to an ambitious global climate solution, particularly as nations convene around a new climate agreement in Paris in December 2015; - Encouraging direct public and private sector investments in cities by meeting transparent standards that are similar to those followed by national governments; - Building a consistent and robust body of data on the impact of city action; and - Accelerating more ambitious, collaborative, and sustainable local climate action.ive, and sustainable local climate action.  +
