- Webinar & E-Learning 26 July 2022 Upscaling E-Mobility in Developing Countries for Climate Mitigation (Webinar) - 07.07.2022 Transportation is responsible for 24% of the direct global CO2 emissions due to fossil fuel combustion. The Paris agreement on climate change set the goal of limiting global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels. Electric Vehicles (EVs) are widely considered a powerful mitigation option to reduce CO2 emissions from buses, passenger cars and two and three-wheelers in the transport sector. The global push toward EVs is reflected in…
- News 22 July 2022 China strengthens its implementation of ETF Home to around 1.4 billion people and covering a vast expanse across Asia, China is a diverse country with a complex climate characterized by a monsoon zone in the East, an arid Northwest region and alpine-like weather along the Tibetan plateau. With these different climate conditions, come differing challenges: the concentrated rain of a monsoon can cause floods, storms and typhoons; the lack of surface water in a continental dry climate could lead to a fragile environment; and the frequent…
- News 15 July 2022 Zimbabwe on track to better climate action transparency Zimbabwe has finished the first phase of the country’s work with the Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT), and is now on track to better collect data key to attaining national climate change goals.
