Getting Canada to net-zero emissions by 2050 will require collaboration and innovation across all parts of society, including the private sector! #BuildingScience #EnergyEfficiency #NetZero #NetZeroEconomyGoals #GreenhouseGasEmissions #GHG #RenewableEnergy #EnergeinInc #BuildingsAndConstruction #CarbonEmissions #CanadaGreenBuildingStrategy

Our net-zero ambition is dependent on the transition of the real-world economy and an effective public policy framework. That’s why we want to put our data, expertise and global network to use in shaping and advocating for policies that can help achieve a just, resilient and economically successful transition.

#OxfordNetzero's recently published comparison of #netzero standards offers a comprehensive overview on the evolving governance frameworks for voluntary efforts to support the #ParisObjectives. Areas of convergence, divergence, and gaps across the 37 identified standards have been mapped out in detail with great accuracy. There should be no doubt that the report will help corporate actors to navigate the often confusing standards landscape and to select what is deemed most suitable for their specific circumstances. As implementing the #ParisAgreement is a true global challenge, and netzero can not be achieved by corporate actors alone, a key overarching gap appear to be missing elaborations how these standards integrate into netzero plans of key governments. Information whether and how each standard supports the required progress reporting to the UNFCCC would be useful. Corporate and government netzero standards are still two different worlds. It's time to address this gap.  Link to the full report: https://lnkd.in/dVru7mzw

According to the State of the Digital Decade 2023 Report, it currently accounts for around 7-9% of global electricity consumption, a figure that is set to rise to 13% by 2030. What's more, it contributes between 2% and 4% of total greenhouse gas emissions and generates increasing quantities of electronic waste. Against this backdrop, access to accurate, easy-to-understand information on the environmental impact and energy consumption of digital products and services is crucial. As a result, defining a multi-criteria measurement standard for the digital environmental footprint of organisations is a crucial step towards responsible resource management and a transition to a sustainable digital economy. This standard should encompass key factors such as carbon emissions, water use and resource consumption, providing a comprehensive view of the environmental impact of digital activities. This is what Cigref, Beltug, CIO Platform Nederland and VOICE - Bundesverband der IT-Anwender e.V. are proposing in their joint Manifesto for future European Parliamentarians. Consequently, we call on the European Union to create such a standard to encourage organisations to adopt more sustainable and transparent practices, thereby 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆-𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝘆.
