What are the 10 countries that rank the highest in the 2024 Climate Change Performance Index? Surprise or not, but the leader in the list is #Denmark: For the third consecutive year in 2024, Denmark leads the Climate Change Performance Index. With high ratings in greenhouse gas emissions and renewable energy, the Nordic country is excelling. However, it narrowly misses the "very high" threshold for a top-three placement in the overall rankings. Check the complete list here⬇️

On Wednesday 23 October, the Climate Change Advisory Council (CCAC) published its Annual Cross Sectoral Review report, which assesses Ireland’s current and projected emissions and provides cross sectoral recommendations for urgent implementation. Read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/d-UFam5G   The CCAC highlights that Ireland’s current progress to reduce emissions is not sufficient to meet its national and EU climate obligations.   Key recommendations include: ➡️ Ceasing subsidies for fossil fuel consumption ➡️ Increasing and making financial support more accessible to accelerate low-carbon technology adoption ➡️ Swift and full implementation of the revised National Planning Framework to boost wind and solar power ➡️ Urgent adoption of the plan for offshore wind rollout off the south coast ➡️ Ensuring pricing incentives for data centres and large energy users to shift electricity usage to low-carbon times   Updates like this are part of our Industry Essentials (IE/NI) service, helping you track essential information on Irish and Northern Irish energy market developments.

U.S., Norway, Canada spending most taxpayer money on funding ‘false climate solutions’: report A new report from Oil Change International (OCI) says the United States and Canada lead the world’s wealthiest countries in wasting public money on carbon capture and fossil-based hydrogen subsidies, so-called climate solutions that have been proven to “consistently fail, overspend, or underperform.” The study, entitled Funding Failure, says these countries continue to pour money into these technologies, which subsidize fossil fuel producers, despite data showing they have “failed to make a dent in carbon emissions” over the past 50 years. As OCI argues, “We need real climate action, not fossil fuel bailouts!” https://bityl.co/Rz4A Read more »

As the world focuses on transitioning to green, there are big questions about whether new oil and gas resources should be developed. On the one hand, new oil regions present the opportunity to develop lower-carbon oil and gas through less damaging operations. On the other, the International Energy Agency (IEA) and environmental organisations say it is vital to transition away from fossil fuels to green alternatives and leave any new oil in the ground, to achieve global climate aims. However, many recent oil discoveries have been made in low-income countries across Africa and the Caribbean, offering them the opportunity to develop their natural resources for significant revenues, which is difficult for many to turn down. For decades, the Western World has been exploiting fossil fuel resources to provide power worldwide and bring in high revenues. This has led regions such as China, the U.S., and the European Union to be some of the world’s biggest polluters. High levels of greenhouse gas emissions produced from fossil fuel production and industrialisation have contributed to climate change, an issue that the governments of many high-income states are attempting to tackle through decarbonisation and a green transition.

Antonio López-Rodríguez, Repsol Head of Energy Transition and Climate Change and Ipieca Climate Change Group Chair, on: 🔹The difference between Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions 🔹Scope 3 emissions categories 🔹The 4 pillars to reduce Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions in oil and gas companies 🔹The upcoming new edition of Ipieca guidance on Scope 3 methodologies covering all categories Find out more about how Ipieca supports emissions reduction > https://rebrand.ly/w0jfa5s #IpiecaImpact #Scope3 

Watch the video and join the conversation on how we can tackle emissions together. Let's make a difference! In this video, I dive into the differences between Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions and discuss the key strategies for decarbonizing each of them. This is a part of our ongoing efforts to promote sustainability and responsible environmental practices. Understanding these scopes is crucial for anyone involved in reducing carbon footprints, and I hope this video sheds some light on how we can all contribute to a decarbonized future. Thanks to Ipieca for giving me a voice in this challenging discussion! #Sustainability #Decarbonization #ClimateAction #IPIECA #ScopeEmissions #EnergyTransition

Our latest report outlines the response from the Energy Demand Research Centre to the Climate Change Committee's consultation on how they should go about establishing their advice on the total Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions within the 7th Carbon Budget (2037 to 2042). This time period represents a late stage of the UK’s climate journey with the ambition of being #netzero by #2050. https://lnkd.in/emDhcHhw #carbonemissions #greenhousegasemissions #climatechange #energy #energysaving #energydemand
