Climate Focus Countries, Sectors
Limiting the scope in order to achieve more
tangible results and greater impact:
•
Adaptation and ecosystems, capacity building:
Africa, SIDS, megadeltas:
Asia, Latin America:
•
low lying coasts, drylands
mountains, tropical forests
Mitigation finance and technology:
middle-income, emerging and carbon intensive economies
T
H
•
CDM and the carbon market:
•
Land use; land use change and forestry; redd:
developing countries with few CDM projects to date,
especially those in Africa
developing countries, especially those with sizeable tropical
forests that have most to gain from REDD

Limits to Growth > Green Economy
• Green Economy
– Value of environmental investments to economic growth, decent
jobs creation, and poverty reduction.
– Encourage policy makers to reflect it in their investment and
economic policy decisions.
– ILO/UNEP report “Green jobs: Towards decent work in a
sustainable, low-carbon economy” Sept 2008. Potential of
millions of green jobs; calls for decent work conditions in new
green jobs and just transition for affected job holders.
• The Economics of Ecosystems and
Biodiversity (TEEB):
– develop a global study and process to analyse the benefits of
biodiversity, the costs of its loss due to inaction, and the costs of
effective conservation.
