Transparency International EU’s Post

Climate challenges cannot be solved in isolation - they require all stakeholders to both play their part and collaborate together. Firstly, governments must provide enabling policy that offers greater certainty, supports the transition and punishes deliberate greenwashing. Investors must be willing to provide patient capital, and acknowledge the complexity inherent in key sectoral transitions. Meanwhile, business leaders must have the focus and risk appetite to reimagine their strategies in a world striving to decarbonise. Find the link below to a study summarising the current state of climate governance from Australian Institute of Company Directors and Pollination. It’s certainly worth a read. #governance #climate #netzero #decarbonisation

❓❓❓Is climate action converging or diverging across countries?   Our latest Climate Action Monitor finds that governments' climate action is increasingly diverging ▶ OECD countries had already strong actions in place and ▶ Managed to accelerate climate action faster than non-OECD countries   This is an urgent call for more international co-ordination and co-operation on climate action, notably in times of the current geopolitical challenges. In an interconnected world, diverging climate action across countries may affect competitiveness and trigger carbon leakage, therefore limiting its overall effectiveness.   Find out more here: 📃 Report: https://lnkd.in/eJW3_knS 📊 Database (open access): https://oe.cd/dx/capmf   OECD Environment, Rodrigo Pizarro Gariazzo, Nathalie Girouard #Climatechange #Climatepolicy #Climateaction #Carbonleakage

A recent AICD study in collaboration with Pollination indicates pressure on organisations to deal with climate governance will only increase. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/4aTtU13 #CompanyDirector #ESG #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange

⌛Now is the time for EU legislation on Sustainable Resource Management! 🇪🇺 We call for a rapid, well-prepared shift towards a fair, autonomous, resilient EU economy within planetary boundaries. https://lnkd.in/eWVEWVBG #wcef2024 #ResourceJustice #CircularEconomy #GRO24 #Sufficiency

There is a crucial gap in current #EU legislation on #resource #consumption, underscoring the need for a new law with science-based and binding resource reduction targets.     In our open letter to European and national decision-makers, we call for an EU Directive that will set a binding EU material footprint reduction target of 5 tonnes per capita by 2050.    Read more here 👇  https://lnkd.in/ewPE9uDh    Friends of the Earth Europe Climate Action Network (CAN) Europe European Youth Forum ECOS Institut négaWatt European Environmental Bureau RREUSE - Reuse and Recycling European Union Social Enterprises Zero Waste Europe Seas At Risk 

#DHOpinion | International policy recommendations based on #climatescience, such as those from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Sixth Assessment Report (IPCC-AR6), stress the need for climate policies to prioritise carbon dioxide (CO2) removal (CDR) processes.

YES to binding EU material footprint reduction targets❗️ Why? Resource extraction and processing are major contributors to the most pressing challenges of our time, including the climate and biodiversity crisis.
