4 : 1000 - Soils for Food Security and Climate +The vision 2050: Worldwide healthy and carbon-rich soils to combat climate change and ensure food security, and engaging stakeholders in shifting towards resilient agriculture and agroforestry through sustainable soil management  +

A

ACT Assessing Low-Carbon Transition +Use of ACT ratings globally by companies, policy makers and financial institutions to track climate actions progress towards low-carbon world. Target of 1000 engaged companies in 2022.  +
Action towards Climate Friendly Transport +I. Improving the access of people and goods around the world to affordable, clean, safe and reliable mobility in order to improve individual development opportunities, II. Advancing the mass roll-out of zero emission vehicles to aid decarbonisation of the transport sector, improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions of urban transport systems, III. Aiming towards the integration of a wide field of actors including national and subnational governments and their networks, financiers and international development cooperation actors as well as the private sector and civil society to work with unified forces to adress sustainable urban mobility challenges. IV. Strengthening the political, legal and institutional frameworks, V. Reducing the adverse health and poverty-driving impacts of air pollution due to urban transport and road accidents.  +
Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme +As of 1 May 2018, there are 42 approved ASAP grants for 41 countries totalling US$292.6 million. As at May 2018, the cumulative disbursement for ASAP1 was US$80 million (37 projects) and disbursements from January 2017 to April 2018 was US$49 million (36 projects). In order to improve ASAP’s disbursements and to enhance the monitoring and the reporting of the trends, project targets were established using an ASAP disbursement proxy tool facilitated by the Treasury Services Division. According to this tool, to reach its target, ASAP should have disbursed US$112 million. From the ASAP portfolio, five projects have disbursed over 50 per cent and Mali is currently at 99 per cent. Mali will be the first ASAP project to close, in late 2018. The second phase of the ASAP (ASAP2) was approved by the Executive Board in September 2016. The Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation agreed to contribute NOK80 million – equivalent to about US$9.5 million – and the Swedish International Development Agency agreed to contribute SEK60M – equivalent to US$9.5 million. The contributions agreements of both Nordic nations follows from their strong support of ASAP1. The renewed commitments will go towards addressing the additional costs of climate change in IFAD’s investments programmes and beyond, contributing to specific elements of the Sustainable Development Goals. The target floor for ASAP II is US$100 million; while the first phase of ASAP was programmed along IFAD investments to mainstreaming climate 23 Source: IFAD's Grants and Investments Project System (GRIPS). Annex VII EB 2018/124/R.13 EC 018/102/W.P.7 33 change, ASAP2 is being programmed to offer technical assistance beyond the IFAD portfolio. This new modality allows IFAD to work with different partners, instruments and tools to continue its mandate to support countries in climate mainstreaming. No. of poor smallholder household members whose climate resilience has been increased - 8,000,000 household members Leverage ratio of ASAP grants versus non-ASAP financing - 1:4 % of extent of land and ecosystem degradation in productive landscapes - -30% No. of tons of greenhouse gas emissions (CO2e) avoided and/or sequestered - 80,000,000 tons No. of hectares of land managed under climate-resilient practice - 1,000,000 hectares No. of households, production and processing facilities with increased water availability - 100,000 households No. of individuals (including women) and community groups engaged in climate risk management, ENRM or disaster risk reduction activities - 1,200 groups United States dollar value of new or existing rural infrastructure made climate resilient - US$80,000,000 No. of international and country dialogues on climate issues where ASAP-supported projects or project partners make an active contribution - 40 dialogues  +
African Adaptation Initiative (AAI) +1) All African countries have climate information services adequate in quantity and quality to support decision making. 2) Stronger continental, regional, and national institutional and policy frameworks to support decision making on adaptation and loss and damage in Africa. 3) Significantly increase the number of projects and programs being implemented to enhance adaptation and address loss and damage in Africa. 4) Increase access to funding and mobilise additional support to enable the implementation of adaptation actions and approaches to address loss and damage.  +
African Forest landscape Restoration (AFR100) +AFR100 aims to restore 100 million hectares of deforested and degraded land in Africa by 2030.  +
Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACI) +Airport Carbon Accreditation was developed and launched by Airports Council International (ACI) Europe in 2009. As of late 2014, Airport Carbon Accreditation had expanded world-wide to all ACI regions. Today it is the only global carbon management standard for airports. The objective of the initiative is to reduce carbon emissions and achieve best practice in carbon management from operations fully within the control of the airports, with the ultimate target of becoming carbon neutral. Long-term commitment: 100 carbon neutral airports in Europe by 2030. As of March 2021, 390 airports have been accredited in total and these airports represent more than 43% of the world’s passenger traffic. As of May 2019, 50 airports worldwide are carbon neutral, including 41 in Europe, 6 in Asia-pacific, 1 in North America, 1 in Africa and 1 in Latin America and the Caribbean. In 2018/2019 accredited airports reduced CO2 emissions under their direct control by 322,297 tons compared to the average emissions of the 3 previous years. At COP21, a partnership has been concluded between the UNFCCC and ACI, with the promotion of Airport Carbon Accreditation being one of its objectives. By aiming at increasing the number of Airport Carbon Accredited airports in all regions, the programme will continue promoting climate action and in particular efforts to reach carbon neutrality by airports.  +
America’s Pledge +America's Pledge aims to: Collect data on non-national climate action to quantify and report on progress made towards the US pledge (Nationally Determined Contribution) under the Paris Agreement. Communicate the findings and results of our research and data collected from non-national actors to the international community and the United Nations. Catalyze further climate action in the near term by providing detailed roadmaps for similar business-level, city, and state action in the US and, potentially, in other countries around the world.  +

B

Banking Environment Initiative (BEI) +Through leading edge applied research and convening activities which connect to change in the real economy, the BEI focuses on decarbonising the global economy, protecting and restoring nature and supporting inclusive and resilient societies. The group works to ensure that capital acts for the long term, capital is priced according to the true cost of business activities and that financial structures better serve sustainable business.  +
Below50 +The initiative commits to reduce CO2 emissions by replacing 10% of global transportation fossil fuel use with low-carbon transport fuels by 2030 and 27% by 2050.  +
BioCarbon Fund Initiative for Sustainable Forest Landscapes (ISFL) +The ISFL aims to catalyze the development of a low-carbon rural economy in each of its program areas that will simultaneously result in livelihood opportunities for communities and an overall reduction in emissions from the land. The ISFL has detailed its mandatory and optional indicators and expected milestones in its Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Framework, available here: https://www.biocarbonfund-isfl.org/sites/biocf/files/documents/ISFL%20MEL%20Framework%20June%202019.pdf  +
Bonn Challenge - Landscape Restoration +The Bonn Challenge is a global effort to restore 150 million hectares of the world's deforested and degraded lands by 2020 and 350 million hectares by 2030.  +
Business Alliance for Water and Climate +The Business Alliance for Water and Climate aims at achieving 100 signatories by 2018 (global stocktake) representing $1 trillion revenues compared to 44 signatories in 2016 representing $680 billion. Companies have the opportunity to be at the forefront of an important movement within the sphere of corporate responsibility. Early action and leadership will be beneficial to companies’ bottom lines, as well as the communities and environmental systems upon which they depend and impact. Adopting this commitment will promote their work to institutional investors whilst giving these important stakeholders confidence that the company understands the risks, is taking effective action, and increasing business resilience. Therefore, the initiative aims to:  Increase the number of companies committing to one of the three actions outlined by the BAFWAC commitment – thus ensuring broad uptake and action on improving water security from the private sector; and  Track progress from the committed companies as to their progress on each of the three actions – thus ensuring appropriate and meaningful action is taken to safeguard water resources enabling the low carbon transition the Paris Agreements and accompanying NDCs outline. By 2020 we will be able to report on the total number of companies that committed to action, the number of actions committed too and progress on each action. 1. First milestone: secure 100 corporate signatories by 2018 representing $1 trillion in revenues. - To date, more than 30 companies across 5 continents representing $680 billion in revenues have joined BAFWAC and committed to take action - We have partnered with We Mean Business through its Commit to Action campaign to launch the first water-related commitment that will increase the number of signatories 2. Second milestone: to catalyze and facilitate effective water action - Technical workshops and webinars have been held - Best practice information and dissemination platforms have been created - Monitoring and tracking of progress against commitments is underway - Collaborative action opportunity identification is underway  +
Business Leadership Criteria on Carbon Pricing +The UN Global Compact seeks to mobilize business support towards the long-term objective of achievement a carbon price applied throughout the global economy. The two interlinked objectives for 2018-2019 are to: • Contribute to mobilizing business around the world to take a leadership stance on carbon pricing with a view to expand quality corporate commitments. • Encourage governments to develop policies that can lead to a meaningful price of carbon on the market. Aligned with the below 2-degree Celsius pathway, the initiative asks companies to: (1) Set an internal carbon price high enough to materially affect investment decisions to drive down greenhouse gas emissions; (2) Publicly advocate the importance of carbon pricing through policy mechanisms that take into account country specific economies and policy contexts; and (3) Communicate on progress over time on the two criteria above in public corporate reports. To date, 78 companies with a total market capitalization of over USD 2.0 trillion across 20 sectors have committed to integrate carbon pricing into corporate long-term strategies and investment decisions. For COP22, the initiative seeks to expand its signatory base to up to 100 companies that commit to the leadership criteria and to present findings from up to 10 local level carbon pricing dialogues. During the occasion of the Paris Agreement Signing Ceremony at the United Nations on 22 April 2016, the UN Global Compact in consulting with UN partners has made a call to companies participating in Caring for Climate to take a leadership position and adopt the $100 price on carbon by 2020. Based on work with approximately 70 companies that have already internalized a price on carbon, the UN Global Compact believes that $100 is the minimum price needed to spur innovation, unlock investment and shift market signals in line with the 1.5 to 2-degree Celsius pathway. The broader vision and objective of the initiative is to reach a point where critical mass of companies around the world are aligning with the leadership criteria and applying an ambitious price on carbon.  +

C40 Clean Bus Declaration +The C40 Clean Bus Declaration is led by the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40). It is aimed at influencing manufacturers, public transport operators, leasing companies, multilateral development banks and other funding agencies to support city ambitions to decarbonize urban mass transport. The cities that are part of the initiative will incorporate over 160,000 buses in their fleet by 2020, of which they have committed to switching 42,000 buses to low emission.  +
CCAC: Agriculture Initiative +5-year milestones: Manure management practice changes identified for Argentina, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Malawi, Vietnam, and regionally in Central America; 3 countries - Vietnam, Bangladesh, Colombia - participate in suitability assessments for alternate wetting and drying rice production: Alternatives to open agricultural burning projects started in India and Peru; 13 countries developed baseline and mitigation assessments for enteric fermentation in the dairy and livestock sector using the Global Livestock and Environmental Assessment Model (GLEAM); Strategic Support Groups created in the Andes and Himalaya countries to help governments and local farmers find alternatives to open burning; Tools developed for Vietnam to measure, report, and verify greenhouse gas emissions from paddy rice, and support NDC implementation in the rice sector.  +
CCAC: Climate and Clean Air Coalition (Main) +The CCAC has a 5-year strategic plan 2016-2020 that supports the development and implementation of policies, regulations and practices of partners and relevant stakeholders in order to deliver substantial SLCP reduction in the near- to medium term. This will be done through scaling up actions in sector initiatives where sources of black carbon, methane and HFC emissions are generated (including the actions referred to in LPAA) and to increase peer-to-peer engagement to make this happen; The strategic plan aims to mobilize robust support for SLCP policies and actions; leverage finance at scale for SLCP reductions; and enhance science and knowledge through the work of the CCAC’s Scientific Advisory Panel, sector initiatives and regional assessments of SLCPs (starting with Latin America and the Caribbean, and Asia and the Pacific).  +
CCAC: Global Green Freight Action Plan +The Global Green Freight Action Plan (GGFAP) aims to enhance the environmental and energy efficiency of goods movement in ways that significantly reduce the climate, health, energy, and cost impacts of freight transport around the world. The three main objectives are: 1) To align and enhance existing green freight efforts, 2) To develop and support new green freight programs globally, and 3) To incorporate black carbon reductions into green freight programs. Target milestones beyond 2020: -By 2022: green freight financing programs established to accelerate fleet turnover and retrofits in all regions. -By 2025: GF programs follow best practices in all major markets. Top 100 global shippers and carriers are members of GF programs. -By 2030: All countries are members of regional programs. GF programs demonstrate significant emission reductions from freight transport. GGFAP commits to dramatically reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, black carbon and air pollutants in the freight sector by 2025 through a greener and more energy efficient multimodal global supply chain.  +
CCAC: Oil & Gas Methane Partnership +Long-term objective: Significantly increase the number of oil & gas companies participating in the OGMP and following its protocols, and by so doing significantly reduce methane emissions from the oil and gas sector – one of the largest man-made source of methane emissions. While participating companies are expected to eventually include all of their operated assets under the protocols of the OGMP, there is no minimum number or share of assets that a company must start with or maintain, and companies add new assets at their own pace. However, the requirement for companies to report annually the share of their assets participating gives them an incentive to add new assets at a reasonable pace. Companies help recruit other companies by emphasizing the advantages of collaboration on this issue, with opportunities to learn from each other.  +
CCAC: Phasing Down Climate Potent HFCs / HFCs Initiative +The HFC Initiative's overall objective is to significantly reduce the projected growth in the use and emissions of high-GWP HFCs in coming decades  +
CCAC: Waste, Mitigating SLCPs from the Municipal Solid Waste Sector +UN Climate Summit 2014 Goals: • By December 2015, 50 cities globally will commit to develop and implement quantifiable plans of action to reduce Short-Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCPs) from the waste sector by 2020, with support from national and partner city governments; • By December 2020, expand the global city network to reach an additional 100 cities to build capacity and utilize the networks tools and resources to mainstream SLCP-considerations in waste management practices; • The initial 150 cities that join the initiative by 2020 will motivate and lead to up to 1,000 cities undertaking action by communicating, sharing, disseminating, mentoring, and scaling around the world their own successful best practices, supported by partners.  +
CEM: Global Lighting Challenge +The Global Lighting Challenge is a race to reach cumulative global sales of 10 billion high- efficiency, high-quality, and affordable advanced lighting products, such as light-emitting diode (LED) lamps. Encourage commitments to the global transition of LED lighting from both public and private sector entities according to the GLC’s guiding principles. The GLC platform acts as a way to highlight leaders of this transition and inspire others to make commitments.  +
CLG Europe +CLG Europe is a leading cross-sectoral business voice convened across the EU in support of a climate neutral economy, deploying effective strategic communications to engage with the highest levels of policy audiences.  +
Carbon Neutral Cities Alliance +In the CNCA 2021-2023 Strategic Plan the Alliance has seven Strategic Goals: 1. Funding transformative climate action to mobilize the development, adoption and implementation of game-changing climate policies in cities. 2. Exerting collective influence on and advocate for policies from other decision-makers to reduce emissions not directly controlled by cities. 3. Advancing methodologies, standards and governance tools for carbon neutrality planning, implementation, impact measurement and continuous improvement. 4. Fostering peer learning among climate vanguard cities, so they can learn from each other and go further and faster together. 5. Cultivating transformational leadership so city sustainability directors can excel in their roles as change-makers. 6. Helping cities communicate more effectively to advance their carbon neutrality work. 7. Prioritizing a just carbon neutral future by integrating climate justice into ambitious climate action.  +
Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition +The long-term vision of CLPC is to see that carbon pricing is implemented on a global scale and with rising ambition sufficient to help meet the Paris Agreement temperature goals. CPLC aims to support the vision statement of the World Bank and IMF-convened Carbon Pricing Panel, composed of the leaders of Germany, Mexico, Canada, Chile, Ethiopia, France, California and Rio de Janeiro. The vision statement calls on the world to expand carbon pricing to cover 25 percent of global emissions by – and to achieve 50 percent coverage within the next decade. It outlines three ways to achieve this vision: by increasing the number of governments putting a price on carbon, deepening existing carbon pricing programs, and promoting global cooperation. CPLC’s workplan is structured around 4 pillars, each with a corresponding Working Group: • WG 1: Fostering Government Leadership • WG 2: Building and Sharing the Evidence Base • WG 3: Mobilizing Business Support • WG 4: Communications Network  +
