We are in a hurry. “Until now, the European Union has been the champion of climate action. It is important that it continues to hold this position and will define its long-term carbon budget and needed policies to scale-up CDR as soon as possible, as scaling of technical and nature-based solutions will take years even in the best-case scenario,” https://lnkd.in/dKnpSaTj

This side event, titled “Unlocking sustainable future in SIDS: national climate policies and actions on clean energy and climate finance”, is a side event at the Fourth International Conference on Small Island Developing States (SIDS4). It delves into the critical role clean energy plays in a sustainable future for SIDS nations, aligning with the conference’s theme of “Charting the course toward resilient prosperity.” The event will address the challenges and opportunities SIDS face in their clean energy transition, emphasising the importance of national policies, long-term development strategies, and collaborative efforts to achieve impactful solutions. https://lnkd.in/esDzM_dn

Dialogue is part and parcel of National Energy and Climate Plans - we suggest that the European Commission specifically comment on the updated NECPs if it is evident that relevant actors were not adequately involved in the drafting process. The Commission mentions a clear need for extra efforts as the drafts are not yet sufficient to meet the EU's 2030 targets. Member States must submit their final updated NECPs by 30 June 2024, taking into account the Commission's recommendations and individual assessments. We hope that Member States will take the time they have left to ensure all relevant stakeholders are involved in the process and engage them in ongoing dialogues.
