| 651 | 72927 | Catalonia | Spain | Europe | 2. Governance | 2.1 | Describe how your region integrates climate-related actions (goals, targets and/or strategies) into its master planning. | 4 | Please explain | 1 | The incorporation of the reduction of GHG emissions and adaptation measures to climate change impacts into the public planning and strategies of the region is carried out through the process of environmental evaluation of plans, programs (EEA) and impact assessment of projects (EIA); participation with climate change European finance projects with other public and private stakeholders and collaborate and coordinate public policies on the framework of Interdepartmental Commission on Climate Change with other Department planners by Government of Catalonia. There is a legal requirement to incorporate the carbon footprint and the adaptation to climate change in planning. It is the Law 21/2013, of 9thDecember, of environmental assessment and the Law 16/2017, of 1st August, on Climate Change. The EEA and EIA evaluates the carbon footprint of the development of sectorial plans and projects (energy, transport, food and agriculture, waste management, industrial, housing, land use planning, tourism… ) and the impacts of climate change on plans and projects ( water supply, public health, environment, biodiversity, forest, tourism, emergency plans, food and agriculture, coast planning …). The quantitative evaluation of emissions is made using the calculation tools and guides that the Office has developed specifically for the calculation of emissions. http://canviclimatic.gencat.cat/en/ambits/planejament_urbanistic/index.html The environmental assessment process is favourable if the plan raises measures to reduce GHG emissions in the fields of energy consumption in residential, commercial and industrial sectors; in the saving of water and reduction of consumption of resources; in the field of improvement of public transport and renovation of vehicles or the promotion of electric vehicles; or in forest management. The process is carried out with a period of consultations with all the affected public administrations and promoters of the plan. All territorial, sectorial plans and projects approved by the Government include an assessment of GHG emissions and evaluation of climate change impacts and this issue is one of the aspects assessed in the Strategic and Impact Environmental Assessment. The number of plans informed for the 2007-2014 period is 123 plans (voluntary period prior to the Law); 2015-2019 period are 189 urban and sectoral plans and 22 projects. | |||

Thus, 16 town councils received more than 60.000€ for the implementation of local adaptation plans.
