Description

Description The Climate Group specializes in bold, catalytic and high-impact climate and energy initiatives with the world’s leading businesses and state and regional governments. Our vision is a world of prosperous ‘net-zero’ emission economies and thriving, sustainable societies.

Our mission is to catalyze climate leadership in government and business to accelerate the shift to a prosperous and thriving ‘net-zero’ future for all. We do this by communicating to inform, convening to connect. We’re judged by our results, not by our plans. We’re committed to seeking impacts, but we’re flexible enough to adapt our approach to changing circumstances in order to achieve our strategic priorities.

Objectives A world of prosperous ‘net-zero’ emission economies and thriving, sustainable societies.
Activities The Climate Group works with states and regions because they are setting some of the most ambitious climate targets, developing a new generation of climate and energy policies, committing to measurement, reporting and transparency – and driving global standards of climate leadership.

The Climate Group's States & Regions Alliance brings together sub-national government leaders from around the world in a powerful, high-profile network that shares expertise, demonstrates impact and influences the international climate dialogue. The Climate Group invites all states, provinces and regions around the world to report to the Compact of States and Regions between April 4 and July 2016. Governments are welcome to signal their intent to start reporting in 2015. The first Compact of States and Regions disclosure report was released at the 21st Conference of Parties to the UNFCCCC (COP21) in Paris, December 2015. The Climate Group acts as Secretariat to the Under2 Coalition and works directly with government signatories and partners of the Under2 MOU to drive net-zero ambition and action.
