| 1208 | 2021 | 834403 | Municipality of San Martín de los Andes | Argentina | Latin America | public | City / Municipality | Baseline scenario (business as usual) target | Other, please specify: Energía, Transporte y Desechos | Se toman a consideración las fuentes de emisión clasificadas en el inventario como básicas (siguiendo el estándar GPC). El nivel BASIC (básico) cubre las fuentes de emisión que se producen en casi todas las ciudades (energía estacionaria, transporte dentro de los límites y desechos generados en la ciudad), donde las metodologías y datos de cálculo están fácilmente disponibles. Se corresponde a un marco de reporte inducido por la ciudad. En detalle, las emisiones cubiertas son: - Energía Estacionaria, alcances 1 y 2 - Transporte, alcance 1 (se utiliza el método de venta de combustible) y 2- Residuos, alcance 1 y 3Se decidió no incorporar las emisiones de agricultura y ganadería y las emisiones de alcance 3 de energía estacionaria (incluidas en el inventario) ya que sobre estas, los gobiernos locales no tienen capacidad de realizar acciones concretas para mitigarlas. Se incluyeron sólo aquellas que pueden ser gestionados más fácilmente a escala local. | Same (city-wide) – covers entire city and nothing else | 2018 | 2019 | 250690.42 | 18 | 2030 | 486354.76 | Durante el 2014 en Argentina se emitieron 368 millones de toneladas de dióxido de carbono equivalente (MtCO2e). 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 es del 60,87%. Este aumento será considerado para la preparación del escenario BAU de San Martín de los Andes donde se proyectarán las emisiones alcanzadas por el nivel BÁSICO. Éste 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 San Martín de los Andes 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 2014-2030 a nivel nacional y local. Factor de ajuste = (variación población 2014 − 2030 San Martín de los Andes)/(variación población 2014 − 2030 Argentina)El INDEC estima que durante este tiempo la población argentina aumentará un 15,79% y un 27,59% en el municipio. Por lo tanto, el factor de ajuste resulta de 1,7471. Así, el aumento de emisiones proyectado para San Martín de los Andes será del 106,35%. Aumento de emisiones en San Martín de los Andes 2014 − 2030 (%) = 60,87% ∗ 1,7471= 106,35%Tomando de base el inventario BÁSICO de San Martín de los Andes del 2014, las emisiones proyectadas bajo el escenario tendencial al 2030 serán de 486.354,76 tCO2e. Emisiones San Martín de los Andes al 2030 (tCO2e) = 235.696,09 tCO2e ∗ (1 + 1,7471) = 486.354,76 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, San Martín de los Andes se compromete a 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, San Martín de los Andes no emitirá más de 398.810,90 tCO2e. | Do not know | No | Se espera que la reducción de emisiones propuesta por San Martín de los Andes y las medidas que se desarrollen para su concreción, se sumen a los esfuerzos nacionales. | 37078 | 2018 | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | ||||||||

La meta de reducción como tal no ha sido calculada por necesidad de encontrar la metodología adecuada. En ese sentido, la acción implica aspectos como los siguientes: Construcción de aceras en lugares donde se encuentren ausentes. Mejoras en las aceras existentes a incluir, entre otros: arreglo de grietas, ajustar niveles con la calle y mantenerlos constantes, eliminar obstáculos, ampliar áreas, iluminación, sombra y refugio para peatones contra condiciones climáticas, adaptación de estructuras a inundaciones, mejoras en alcantarillado pluvial y desagües. Habilitar más áreas de bulevares. Arborización de zonas habilitadas. Señalización vial. Accesibilidad, rampas seguras y con pendientes adecuadas. Cruces peatonales a nivel y con anchura adecuada.Consideraciones técnicas y sociales: Mejoras en la vigilancia y seguridad ciudadana, coordinación con Seguridad Pública y Municipal. Conexión de áreas caminables con elementos viales y de transporte: ciclovías, paradas de buses, estaciones de trenes. Conexión con comercios, servicios, instituciones públicas y residencias. Uso de áreas para actividades culturales, sociales. Comunicación con el MOPT para intervenciones conjuntas en vías nacionales (Comisión con el MOPT, según Reglamento de Desarrollo -RDU- o Plan regulador).Para el cálculo de reducción de emisiones, se propone utilizar las distribuciones modales empleadas en el cálculo de emisiones en el sector transporte, subsector por carretera, bajo la metodología de viajes. La reducción estaría basada en la modificación de la distribución modal, previéndose un incremento en el porcentaje de desplazamientos a pie, a cambio de una reducción en otros medios de transporte. Para definir dichos ajustes con mayor precisión, será necesario el criterio técnico de expertos, y estudios que fundamenten cómo se darían los cambios en las distribuciones modales. En esa matemática, se incluirían aspectos como la población que transita en el cantón, distribución modal, distancias de viajes por modo de transporte, cantidad de viajes por día por persona, entre otros | 347398 | 2020 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[9.9326, -84.0796]} | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | ||||||

Despite this, we know that the actions being proposed are based on assessment of the issues, opportunities and what the CCC and others deem to be necessary to reach carbon neutrality, and we are frontloading delivery of these actions wherever possible so that we can do everything within our sphere of influence to push us towards carbon neutrality by 2030, the Paris-aligned trajectory and compliance with our cumulative CO2 budgets. Quantifying the carbon impacts of the actions is in itself a key action of the plan. | 155421 | 2020 | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | ||||||||||

Data from the 2014 emissions inventory was used to create the model to set the city's baseline emissions. CURB is an excel based model that uses city emission inventory data to project future emissions and suggest actions for reduction. The analysis presented here comes from the CURB model, and it helped Amman shape its 2050 vision and action plan. The tool was developed closely with the departments and units that manage infrastructure projects and policies in the Greater Amman Municipality; the government formed a technical working group that input data to the model. The selected actions used to create the scenario are based on discussions with these departments and reflect the city's actions that are in process. The baseline scenario is a "business as usual" projection that estimates what emission levels would be in the future with no emission reduction actions. The baseline uses Amman's 2014 emissions inventory data and future population and economic growth rates to project emissions. Actions were then selected in the tool for each sector to build a scenario that would reduce emissions below the baseline emission projections. Currently, the model pathway does not show that Amman can reach its 2050 near-zero-emissions target. C40 considers near-zero-emissions to be 0.01 tCO2e/person. Many cities that have committed to this goal are still exploring how to achieve aggressive long-term targets. The achievement gap should be used to indicate the scale of ambition needed to achieve near-zero emissions. | Yes - 1.5 °C | Yes, and it exceeds its scale or requirement | Target is to be carbon neutral by 2050Interim target 40% reduction on 2014 baseline by 2030 | 3800000 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[35.9284, 31.9454]} | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | |||||
