Many countries have pledged targets or actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the Copenhagen Accord. New OECD analysis shows that these pledges go towards but are not ambitious enough to limit long-term temperature rise to 2°C. While not cheap, the costs of these pledges are limited compared to expected economic growth. Ambitious global action to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions is not only necessary, but also economically rational. Using market-based instruments to implement the pledges also has the potential to generate sizable fiscal revenues.

Much of the current policy debate on adaptation to climate change has focussed on estimating costs, funding, and the international institutional architecture for financing. There is however little emphasis so far on delivery mechanisms to channel these resources at the sub-national level, particularly to target the poor, who are often the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. It is in this context that microfinance merits a closer look. This paper offers the first empirical assessment of the linkages between microfinance supported activities and adaptation to climate change.

The OECD’s objective is to help its member countries prepare for the future by supporting them with sound policy analysis and options to achieve climate change goals in an environmentally-effective and economically-efficient manner. A number of projects are underway to implement this across several OECD Directorates and in the specialised agencies associated with the OECD, such as the IEA and the NEA. This document highlights this work.

"Bien que loin d’être parfait, l’accord de Copenhague représente un accord politique arraché de dure lutte. La plupart des pays sont susceptibles de le signer et il représente, à ce titre, une étape décisive vers une action collective internationale visant à limiter les émissions mondiales et à construire des économies plus propres, plus résistantes", a déclaré le Secrétaire général de l’OCDE, M. Angel Gurría.

Today, the OECD is actively working with governments to highlight the role of cities to deliver cost-effective policy responses to climate change. Cities are centers of innovation and can advance clean energy systems, sustainable transportation and waste management to reduce greenhouse gases.

Cities represent a challenge and an opportunity for climate change policy. This paper presents a framework for multilevel governance and a review of experience to show the need for both vertical integration or governance of climate change across all levels of government is crucial to avoid policy gaps between local action plans and national policy frameworks and horizontal integration is necessary to encourage cross-scale learning between relevant departments or institutions in local and regional governments…
