SUMMARY:Getting to Grips with Climate Metrics: A Comprehensive Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Current industry debates around climate investing have raised the urgency of understanding\, measuring\, monitoring\, and mitigating not only financial risks arising from climate change\, but also the impact of investments on climate change.

Investors may also need to consider different metrics at the different stages of their climate-investment process\, adding to the challenges. \nIn this webinar\, our researchers will discuss how market participants can identify and use suitable climate metrics to achieve their climate-investing objectives. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of climate metrics in your investments. \nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:Evaluating the role of low-carbon hydrogen in the future energy system
DESCRIPTION:Low-carbon hydrogen is expected to play a key role in the future energy system\, particularly in decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors. Yet several key barriers to adoption remain\, and it is likely that at least three times the hydrogen capacity announced so far will be needed by 2030 to stay on track to hit net-zero targets by 2050. \nIn this Economist Impact insight hour\, join us as we identify the barriers to adoption and pinpoint the practical solutions needed to deploy low-carbon hydrogen at scale and meet imminent emission-reduction targets. To what extent can regulation help to accelerate large-scale hydrogen deployment? What investment is needed into renewable-energy capacity\, grids and infrastructure? Will the creation of collaborative hydrogen hubs be enough to kick-start the hydrogen economy and reduce the fragility of existing global energy markets? What more is needed to make change happen? \nThis Insight Hour is programmed by Economist Impact and hosted by Deloitte. \nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:Carbon Markets after COP27: Emerging\, Growing and Maturing?
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh proved that digital technologies can enhance carbon markets and be a valuable agent for change. For example\, the Climate Warehouse is a World Bank initiative that aims to build an end-to-end digital ecosystem for carbon markets: based on blockchain technology. Consequently\, there is an increasing consensus between the potential convergence of the voluntary carbon market and the carbon market set out by Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArticle 6 of the Paris Agreement would standardize legislation enabling countries to achieve their national climate targets by buying carbon offset credits. Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) are a crucial feature of the Paris agreement and were one of the hot topics at this year’s COP27. NDCs are a type of pledge: they represent the climate actions that countries will take to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. The hope is that international rules backed by the entire world could attract large private capital flows to carbon-reducing projects. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAltogether\, the voluntary carbon market experienced some ups and downs this year. There is still a lot to be done to reach mainstream utilization. Together with experts from the ECOTA\, we will elaborate on the main developments of the VCM this year\, outcomes of COP27 and any hurdles to scale carbon markets. In this context\, our panelists will also discuss potential trends and carbon market developments in 2023. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat have been the main developments of the voluntary carbon market in 2022?\n\n\n\nWhat is the impact of COP27 on the voluntary carbon market?\n\n\n\nHow will the voluntary carbon market grow in 2023?\n\n\n\nCan blockchain technology provide a foundation for scaling the voluntary carbon market and carbon market mechanisms under the Paris Agreement?\n\n\n\nCan the compliance and voluntary carbon markets evolve together in order to scale truly global carbon markets?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by fsblockchain\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.
