Por otro lado, las emisiones proyectadas al año 2030 bajo el escenario BAU ascienden a 592 MtCO2e. De esta forma, el aumento porcentual relativo de emisiones proyectado para el 2030, desde el año 2018, es del 45,65%. Este aumento será considerado para la preparación del escenario BAU de Guaminí donde se proyectarán las emisiones alcanzadas por el nivel BÁSICO. Como se mostró en el punto 3.1.6, este nivel abarca los sectores en los cuales los gobiernos locales poseen mayor capacidad de realizar acciones concretas, y que pueden ser gestionados más fácilmente que los incluidos en el nivel BÁSICO +. Para correlacionar el escenario Business as Usual nacional con el de Guaminí se realizó un ajuste considerando las tasas de aumento poblacional. El factor de ajuste es equivalente a la relación entre la variación poblacional en el período 2018-2030 a nivel nacional y local.El INDEC estima que durante este tiempo la población argentina aumentará un 11,04% y un 6,12% en el municipio. Por lo tanto el factor de ajuste resulta de 0,5548. Así, el aumento de emisiones proyectado para Guaminí será del 25,33%.Aumento de emisiones en Guaminí 2018-2030 (%)=0,5548*45,65%Aumento de emisiones en Guaminí 2018-2030 (%)=25,33%Tomando de base el inventario BÁSICO de [Municipio] del 2016, las emisiones proyectadas bajo el escenario tendencial al 2030 serán de 41.279,62 tCO2e.Emisiones en Guaminí al 2030 (tCO2e)= 32937,72 (tCO2e)*(1+0,2533)Emisiones en Guaminí al 2030 (tCO2e)=41.279,62 (tCO2e)Tomando como referencia la meta de reducción de emisiones presentada por el país y acorde a lo establecido en el Pacto de Alcaldes por el Clima y la Energía, Guaminí se fija una meta igual de ambiciosa, reducir sus emisiones de gases de efecto en al menos un 18% respecto al escenario BAU al 2030, considerando las fuentes de emisión del alcance BÁSICO. De esta forma, en 2030, Guaminí no emitirá más de 33.849,29(tCO2e)Do not knowSe espera que la reducción de emisiones propuesta por Guaminí y las medidas que se desarrollen para su concreción, se sumen a los esfuerzos nacionales.1182620102021-07-16T02:09:29.690

On the contrary, with the assumption that Batangas City shall push for the initiatives promulgated by the GHG management plan and the intensive implementation of its Environment Code, GHG emission is expected to decrease from the 2015 year point towards 2030 using again the 25% target but in terms of reduction in emission. The Philippines intends to undertake GHG (CO2e) emissions reduction of about 70% by 2030 relative to its BAU scenario of 2000-2030. Reduction of CO2e emissions willcome from energy, transport, waste, forestry and industry sectors. The mitigation contribution is conditioned on the extent of financial resources, including technologydevelopment & transfer, and capacity building, that will be made available to the Philippines.3541702017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[121.058, 13.7565]}2021-07-16T02:09:29.690

Los costos relacionados con la atención de los in-crementos en enfermedades y de muertes prematuras se podrían reducir ostensiblemente si se cum-pliera con las normas mexicanas de calidad del aire para la protección de la salud. Además, mejorar la calidad del aire contribuye a garantizar el derecho de toda persona a un medio ambiente sano para su desarrollo y bienestar, consagrado en el Artículo 4to. de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos.21517820102021-07-16T02:09:29.690

These targets are based on percentage reductions from 1990 emissions levels. Using an estimate of 1990 citywide greenhouse gas emissions, they thus estimated that we would need to reduce emissions to 3.4 million MT CO2e by 2030 to align with the state targets. Our 2030 goal of 3.66 million MT CO2e is as close as was considered reasonable and achievable at the time of plan development.We are currently working on our first citywide GHG inventory since the adoption of the Climate Smart San Jose plan and these goals. Percentage of target achieved was calculated based on emissions reductions from 2014 to 2017 (the years of our last two GHG inventories).10460792017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-121.886, 37.3382]}2021-07-16T02:09:29.690

In October 2019, Toronto City Council declared a climate emergency, deepening the City's commitment to addressing climate change. As part of the climate emergency declaration, Toronto's long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target was revised. The City's new targets (based on 1990 levels) are: 30 per cent by 2020 65 per cent by 2030 Net zero by 2050, or soonerAchieving these targets will require transformational changes in how we live, work, build and commute, and everyone will have a role in transforming Toronto into a low-carbon city.For more information on TranformTO please see link attached:https://www.toronto.ca/services-payments/water-environment/environmentally-friendly-city-initiatives/transformto/TransformTO supports Council's Strategic Action Plan.

En relación a las fuentes de emisión de GEI que sugieren los protocolos contabilizar, el estudio se dividió en tres fases. La primera, fue de planificación, el cual consistió en analizar la recolección de la información sobre las fuentes de emisión, o también llamados “datos de actividad”. Según WRI (2014), la recolección de datos es una parte integral del desarrollo y actualización de un inventario de GEI. Esto incluye la recopilación de datos existentes, la generación de nuevos datos y la adaptación de los datos de inventario para su uso. En este caso, uno de los mayores retos para realizar el presente inventario de GEI, se debe a las limitaciones en la calidad y disponibilidad de datos de actividad por la falta de un Sistema Nacional de Información. Los datos de actividad se refieren a una medida cuantitativa de un nivel de actividad humana, que da lugar a emisiones de GEI que tienen lugar durante un período de tiempo determinado (IPCC 2006).Same – covers entire city and nothing else201720181120301Metric tonnes of CO2e per capita11One Planet City ChallengeYes - 1.5 °CDo not knowDespués de tener las observaciones de los investigadores, y tomar de referencia el análisis de vulnerabilidad de los medios de vida de la región y el inventario de GEI, se elaboró una propuesta de los temas claves para la adaptación y mitigación al cambio climático a nivel local.

The city's target is 30% reduction by 2030 (1.9%), and 70% by 2050 (1.9%), from a 2014 baseline.The Climate & Energy Subcommittee for the Mayor's Livable Nashville Committee based the overall GHG reduction goals primarily on a survey of goals adopted by peer and aspirational cities. The City of Atlanta has adopted similar targets (except theirs was for a 2009 baseline). The subcommittee confirmed the general alignment of these goals with the science-based recommendation to reduce absolute carbon emissions by three percent annually until 2050 in order to achieve the global goal of holding warming to two degrees Celsius. However, they recommended that Metro-Nashville confirm these goals are at least as stringent as the science-based target when a science-based online assessment tool becomes available. In addition, an analysis by PriceWaterhouseCoopers suggests that a 3% annual reduction may be insufficient and recommends the United States commit to 4.3% annual reduction. The Livable Nashville Committee's recommendations therefore included committing to reviewing the targets annually to identify opportunities to reduce GHG emissions more quickly than planned and revise the targets accordingly.6925872018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-86.7816, 36.1627]}2021-07-16T02:09:29.690
