The standards apply to all new construction projects, new additions, and major renovations in two categories. The ordinance excludes one- or two-family residences. Category 1: All new construction and major renovation projects up to 49,999 square feet must comply with 80% of the listed green building techniques. These requirements include 25 sustainability goals and practices in energy efficiency, water conservation, and the use of sustainable construction materials and renewable energy. Category 2: All new construction and major renovations exceeding 50,000 square feet must have a LEED AP as a member of their team. The projects must submit a LEED checklist, demonstrating that the project meets LEED Certified standards or higher. Further, the program establishes urban tree requirements to preserve or replace existing on-site and street trees with trunk diameters greater than 2 inches. The program also has a Green Zone Incentive Program, through which plan check and permit fees (in an amount not to exceed $5,000) may be waived for energy efficiency improvements located in the AIP (Area of Improvement) Phase I and Phase II areas.Culver City's Solar Photovoltaic Systems ordinance, adopted in March 2008, establishes a mandatory one-kilowatt solar photovoltaic system per every 10,000 square feet of gross floor area for new commercial and multifamily construction of 10,000 square feet or greater.The City does not currently have data on the estimated emissions reduction (in metric tons CO2e) or an estimated emissions reduction timescale for this activity. | http://www.culvercity.org/Home/ShowDocumentid=902 | 39295 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-118.4, 34.02]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | |||||||||

Há medidas importantes que visam à qualificação e à priorização do transporte coletivo, que enfrenta uma crise devido à redução de passageiros e à pandemia. Porto Alegre possui 32,6 km de faixas exclusivas para ônibus e 56,3 km de corredores de ônibus. A atual gestão já dobrou a extensão de faixas exclusivas em Porto Alegre. Considerando apenas 2020, a entrega resulta em 87,8 % do total de Faixas Exclusivas implantadas em Porto Alegre até o início da gestão (de 1977 até 2016). A medida, que traz mais agilidade às viagens e reduz o tempo de deslocamento, visa atrair novos passageiros. Nos últimos 4 anos, foi registrada queda de 78% dos registros de assalto a ônibus, a partir da criação da Força-Tarefa de Combate a Roubos no Transporte Coletivo da Capital. Além disso, em agosto de 2019, toda a frota de cerca de 1.600 ônibus foi equipada com a instalação de GPS, possibilitando ao usuário monitorar, por meio de aplicativo, informações sobre horário e trajeto do ônibus em tempo real. A iniciativa atinge as 420 linhas das 12 empresas que atuam na Capital. O propósito de qualificação do serviço para atrair mais usuários inclui ainda a concessão, por 20 anos, das paradas de ônibus, cuja consulta pública sobre o modelo encerrou em 31 de janeiro de 2020 e o edital deve ser lançado em setembro deste ano. Outra iniciativa neste sentido é a melhoria financeira da Carris (empresa de ônibus de economia mista, com controle acionário majoritário da prefeitura), a partir da qual foi autorizada a renovar 25% de sua frota e adquirir 87 ônibus modernos e mais eficientes, o que deve qualificar o atendimento de cerca de 141 mil usuários diários. Por meio de decreto municipal, Porto Alegre também deixou de exigir que novos empreendimentos tenham número mínimo de vagas de estacionamento para veículos particulares, incentivando a busca por modais coletivos ou menos poluentes, como o uso de bicicletas. Porto Alegre tem 55 km de ciclovias, dos quais 11 km foram implantados nos último 3 anos. Para completar, tramitam na Câmara medidas ousadas, que privilegiam o transporte coletivo e desestimulam o uso de veículo privado. São diversas iniciativas, algumas avançadas, como a implantação de faixas exclusivas para ônibus, outras em tramitação na Câmara de Vereadores, como o pacote de projetos de mobilidade urbana. Como não se trata de um projeto específico, mas de um programa, com diversas ações vinculadas, não há status financeiro total disponível, nem uma fonte única de financiamento, até porque diversas medidas dependem da aprovação dos vereadores para implantação. De qualquer forma, o objetivo é mudar a lógica do transporte coletivo. Por exemplo: quem pagou com seus impostos obras de trânsito na cidade como elevadas, viadutos e ruas, sem ter carro, passa a receber de volta, através de subsídios nas passagens do transporte coletivo. A ideia é desestimular o uso do veículo privado e estimular o uso do transporte coletivo. | https://prefeitura.poa.br/gp/noticias/prefeitura-encaminha-camara-cinco-projetos-de-mobilidade-urbana | 1479101 | 2010 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[51, 30]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | |||||||||

Some of the goals of the program include: Reduce operating costs and increase profit margins for property owners through better energy and water management; Expand access to financing tools to encourage energy efficiency improvements; Empower consumers to make more informed decisions; Assist our most vulnerable neighborhoods by reducing utility cost burdens; Gather information about building energy and water use to increase awareness and data-driven decision making; Reduce water supply constraints and preserve a critical natural resource; Improve energy and water efficiency by supporting building code training and education. (from Dade County Building Efficiency 305 website)"This ordinance will apply to buildings 20k sqft and above including private and public properties. Properties will be required to publicly disclose their energy use via EnergyStar Portfolio Manager. In the future buildings will also be required to audit for potential energy efficiency (but not required to implement) and retune existing utilities.o GreenLink report for Miami Dade County: Electricity bill savings are expected to be roughly $90.5 million within the first five years of implementing benchmarking and data sharing. When retuning and auditing are included in the mix, total savings are projected to jump to about $411 million through 2030, with an average of $37 million annually. This is the result of 6 billion kWh of energy consumption avoided by 2030.City of Miami has roughly 1/6 of the covered buildings included in the County’s analysis, with many of the larger buildings that can generate the greatest benefits. It stands to reason that expected cost savings would be $15 million within first five years, jumping to $68.5 million with auditing and retuning. This provides an average of $11.4 million annually and 1 billion kWh of energy consumption avoided by 2030.o Autocase for Miami Dade County: The Autocase report performed a Triple-bottom line Cost-benefit analysis (TBL-CBA) for the proposed components of the ordinance and found over $7.7 billion in benefits over a span of 40 years, with $4.4 billion going to owners and tenants and $3.2 billion to the community as a whole.Scaled to City of Miami, this equates to net benefits of $730 million to owners and $530 million to the community as a whole over the next 40 years. | Pre-feasibility study status | http://www8.miamidade.gov/global/economy/resilience/building-efficiency-305.page | 467963 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-80.1918, 25.7617]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | ||||||

There are 763 minibuses operating in 22 lines within the boundaries of the province . In addition, a total of 452 taxis are in operation including 371 in central districts and 81 in other districts.Considering the current operational status of the minibuses that have an important role in the public transportation system of Denizli, it is observed that they do not have any systematic set up and they are not managed by any administration. This complicates the management of the public transport system in the city centre and leads to a decline in service standards. Considering the capacities, safety, cleaning, comfort systems, accessibility and pricing of minibuses, they do not constitute an attractive public transportation system in the city. (DMM, 2018). The level of service and the quality of public transport also obliges citizens to use special vehicles in some regions. This may lead to the development of urban transport in the direction of individual vehicle use. With the activities to be carried out within the scope of this action, it is aimed to increase the public transportation in the city centre and to reduce the use of individual vehicles by citizens.Activities to be Conducted: Purchase of new small buses Gradual transformation of urban minibus operation to bus system Applications that encourage the use of public transport (free transfer, free internet on the vehicle, charging station, internet ticket loading, etc.) To discourage the use of individual vehicles (emission-free zone, plate limitation, strip reduction etc.).The risks of this action: The lack of widespread public transport culture Resistance of minibus owners | Feasibility finalized, and finance partially secured | 1027782 | 2018 | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | |||||||||||

Solar energy, a form of clean and renewable energy, is an alternative to conventional fossil fuels where extraction and usage is expensive and harmful to the environment. Generation of solar energy through on-site solar PV systems can off-set electricity usage, reduce GHG emissions, provide savings on utility bills while mitigating against rising energy costs.To date, the City has installed over 100 rooftop solar PV systems through the Provincial Feed-in Tariff (FIT) program, which allows the City to obtain revenue based on the renewable energy generated over a 20-year contract. This portfolio includes 12 megawatts (MW) of solar PV generation capacity on City-owned buildings, generating over 13,600,000 kilowatt hours, enough to power 1,500 homes for a year. Other solar energy initiatives the City has undertaken in 2019 are profiled below.Building Resilience into our Emergency ServicesIn 2019, the City of Toronto completed its first solar PV energy storage project on Toronto Paramedic Services' EMS station 46. The building's roof and south-facing wall have been outfitted with a 10 kilowatt (kW) solar PV system, coupled with two 13.5 kilowatt-hour (kWh) Tesla Powerwall batteries. The energy generated by the installation is used to power the building's demand or charge the batteries, with extra generation fed back into the grid for an electricity credit. The system offsets 39% of the site's electricity costs and is expected to provide indefinite emergency back-up power. The added component of resiliency becomes crucial in ensuring the continuity of City services and infrastructure as the incidence of extreme weather events increases as a consequence of climate change. The City plans to scale this solution to other facilities such as the Waterfront Neighbourhood Centre, and transition its dependency on expensive fossil fuel-powered generators for backup.Expanding Solar PVs to Parking LotsAlthough solar panels are well-suited for buildings, large parking lots offer a significant opportunity to expand solar energy in the city. Solar carports offer several benefits, from sheltering cars from the sun and inclement weather, prolonging the life of the asphalt, and making use of underutilized space while generating clean electricity. Carport installations can be paired with electric vehicle charging infrastructure so users can charge their vehicles while parked. In 2019, the City started planning the first round of carport projects and held multiple stakeholder meetings. A number of solar PV projects were identified for a Request for Proposal that seeks service providers for project implementation. The contracts for this service delivery are expected to be awarded in 2020.Exploring Emerging Solar TechnologiesEmerging solar technologies like Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) are of particular interest concerning on-site generation in urban areas where roof space is limited. This application replaces conventional windows with a solar glass that generate electricity but still allow natural light to come through. Combining solar with batteries makes it possible to store and discharge energy as it is required, which gives the building an added benefit of resiliency. In 2019, the City installed its first project of this kind at the North York Civic Centre with a small three kilowatt BIPV system to demonstrate the utility of this technology in dense urban environments. Early success has been observed as the new system continues to generate electricity for the building. The City continues to monitor and collect performance data from the system, and is actively seeking other types of buildings to apply this technology. Results gathered from these demonstration sites will inform future decisions on whether to expand BIPV to other City facilities. | Finance secured | 4800000 | 4800000 | (Sub)national | 4800000 | http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.doitem=2016.MM21.30 | 2919971 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-79.3832, 43.6532]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | ||

| 1038 | 2020 | 54513 | Municipality of Uppsala | Uppsala | Sweden | Europe | public | SEK Swedish Krona | Finance and Economic Development > Developing the green economy | Uppsala Climate Protocol - Fourth Period 2018-21 and onwards to 2030 | Stakeholder engagement | Operation | 151000 | Projected lifetime | STAKEHOLDER COOPERATION:The fourth period (2018-21) Uppsala Climate Protocol (see previous Mitigation Action for Protocol periods 1-3) now have 40, members from all sectors and from many different business/industries. These members employ cirka 37,000 persons out of the total cirka 100,000 employees in the Uppsala working places. Another 10-15 companies participate in the focus/working groups of the Protocol. In energy terms, the member consume about a third of all consumed stationary energy in the municipality of Uppsala.The fourth Protocol Period marks a shift in policy and target setting method. The Executive Roundtable in the fall 2018 decided that the Climate Protocol should shift to adopt science based targets. That is a move from targets that we estimate we can achieve to the necessary targets "we must achieve" to fulfill the Paris Agreement and scientific recommendations. From what we can to what we need to do. During the winter 2018/19, work was made on how to calculate/estimate Science Based Targets for Uppsala Climate Protocol. At the Executive Roundtable in the spring 2019, it was decided to adopt the Carbon Law (by Johan Rockström and others) but with a doubble speed considering that Uppsala and organisations in Uppsala are resourceful and part of a rich country. This means that forthcoming programme periods from 2021 will work with the target to decrease the joint emissions from members with 14 % per year. For the ongoing period the target is set to 10-14 % per year realtive previous year. That is a total of 27-36 % over the 3 years working period (2018-2020 base year 2017). The members estimate on what each of them can achieve during this working period gave a total of circa 20 % emissions reduction (about 7 % per year). This means that all members now need to go back and review their mitigation plans in order to reach at least 10 % per year. Just the same way that all nations under the Paris Agreement need to revise their NDC.This is a real challenge as the members so far as a Group has managed a 5% decrease per year and will now hence need to double this pace.The City of Uppsala is a member of Uppsala Climate Protocol. The City account for about half of the total emissions of the Climate Protocol.The indicated CO2 emissions reduction is calculated as 10% decrease per year relative previous year 2018-2030 (base year 2017. This is under the assumption thath the fourth Protocol period, will be followed by a fifth, sixth and seventh Protocol period, leading up to 2030, with at least the same amount of members and emissions. The fourth period would result in 49-65,000 ton CO2 e (10-14%/year) of the total 151-154,000 ton. Base year emissions are 180,000 ton CO2e. The accounted emissions are mainly from Scope 1+2, a few from procured transport, but the members are striving to include more indirect/Scope 3 emissions.The fourth period also marks another shift with a new feature:The previous Protocol period (2015-18) developed 30 Climate Challenges covering: energy and capacity efficiency, energy production, travel and transport, building materials and ecosystem, plastics, pension funds and general (other) indirect emissions. The Climate Challenges are clear 1, 2 or 3 stepping stones for a organisation to become fossil fuel free and renewable by 2030 (latest) in these areas.To become a member of the fourth Uppsala Climate Protocol each member (including the City itselves) must adopt at least 5 Climate Challenges. An average of 7-8 Challenges were adopted. The cost of running / faciliating the Climate Protocol is today about 2,000,000 SEK a year. Membership fees makes 1,000,000.

There are three Ramsar Sites in the state of Johor and all of them are within the Iskandar Malaysia region. Sungai Pulai is the largest riverine mangrove system in the state of Johor.In order to enhance the protection of the area, IRDA has completed two projects namely Survey of Boundary And Installation of Numbered Markers of Sungai Pulai Forest Reserve and Establishment of Sungai Pulai Management Plan. The survey and marking the boundary of Sungai Pulai Forest Reserve was urgently needed as the last survey was conducted in 1928 and since then, the size of the forest reserve had declined significantly with the completion of the project, there is now an up to date boundary of the actual forest reserve.A site specific management plan for Sungai Pulai Ramsar Site cover all aspects of resources from within and in the surrounding areas of Sungai Pulai, capturing its biodiversity wealth, its utilization by local communities and stakeholders, its potential as a tourism attraction and as one of the main attraction to nature or green sites within Iskandar Malaysia and its inter-relationship and management options with surrounding development.The end goal is for the enhancement and upgrading the status and protection of Sungai Pulai Forest Reserve to a State Park (Section 10) under the National Forestry Act 1984. | Finance secured | 827000 | 827000 | Other, please specify: Federal Government | 827000 | 2090000 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[100.992, 1.45556]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | |||
