how frequently does the letter e appear in:
the outcome of the world climate conference (cop25) in madrid, held 2 to 15 december 2019, clearly shows the strengths and weaknesses of the paris agreement. it shows that the days of cosmetic climate policy are over, but also that the coordinated resistance of the brakemen is growing as a result.
with 2015 to 2019 as the hottest five-year period ever measured and climate impacts getting ever more severe and frequent, the immediate and determined implementation of the goals mutually agreed on in the paris agreement is more urgent than ever. un secretary-general antónio guterres has therefore invited governments, the private sector, civil society and international organisations to the un climate action summit 2019 starting today in new york. focussing on ambitious solutions and announcements of more ambitious climate targets, the summit is meant to be the starting signal for a “race to the top”.
call for action on adaptation and resilience
china is following ambitious green finance plans – also for its investments overseas. but some standards are too low and should be tightened. so far, coal investments have also been considered green if the projects are cleaner.
for canada, the concept of a sustainable finance is still relatively new. but its importance is growing steadily and can become a model of success for the country.
the role sustainable lifestyles can play in achieving a paradigm shift to sustainability is acknowledged in both the sustainable development goals and the paris agreement of 2015. they can be defined as “responsible living with our total surrounding and ourselves”, thus including aspects like global equity (see previous blogpost). nevertheless, the vast majority of scientific literature focuses on ecological sustainability.
financing sustainability or sustainable financing?
the small country in the heart of europe portraits itself as a leader in sustainable finance. already in 2007, the first green bonds were issued and now there is also a green stock exchange. however, demand and reality do not coincide enough.
