Market can play an important role in Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction 2. Technologies are available now that enable substantial reductions at acceptable marginal abatement costs 3. A variety of policies can lead to reductions of GHG emissions; carbon markets are needed to implement cap‐and‐trade and can interconnect policy measures 4. A deep, liquid and global carbon market has the potential to deliver significant benefits to all participants, including for development 5. But countries will need to take decisions to establish long‐term price signals and gain the full benefits of carbon markets.

  • The Climate Report
    THE CLIMATE REPORT GLOSSARY OF KEY CLIMATE CHANGE TERMS A ADAPTATION – An adjustment in natural or human systems to a new or changing A environment. “Adaptation to climate change” refers to an adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected climate change or its effects that serves to moderate harm (or vulnerability to harm) or exploit beneficial opportuni- ties. Adaptation can be either anticipatory (e.g., building bridges higher to accom- modate a future rise in sea level) or reactive (e.g., using snow machines to offset decreased snowfall at ski resorts) and either autonomous (e.g., migration of animal or plant populations toward areas with compatible habitat) or planned (e.g., changes in crop selection and planting schedules). Q T AFFORESTATION – The creation of a carbon sink through the conversion of unfor- ested land to forested land. Under the United Nations Framework Convention on V X Climate Change, afforestation is the direct human-induced conversion of land that has not been forested for a period of at least 50 years through planting, seeding, and/or the human-induced promotion of natural seed sources. Afforestation is one Y Z tool that can be used to generate CER offset credits under the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism. ALLOCATION – An approach in a cap and trade scheme hexafluoride—and the industrial sectors or source categories by which emission allowances are distributed or “allocated” that emit them. by the government to regulated entities at little or no cost. Such allocations can be based on a variety of policy factors ANNEX B – The list established under the Kyoto Protocol set- but are generally tied to either a “grandfathering” approach ting out the agreed emissions limitations or reduction targets, based on past emissions in a base year or an “updating” known as the Quantified Emissions Limitation and Reduction approach based on more recent emissions data.

Final regulatory wording may differ from what is found in this document. INTERPRETATION 1. The following definitions apply in these regulations. “Assigned Amount Unit” (AAU) means a unit issued pursuant to Article 3 of the Kyoto Protocol and is equal to one metric tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent calculated using the global warming potentials as defined in Schedule 1. “Certified Emission Reduction” (CER) means a unit that has been issued pursuant to a Clean Development Mechanism project, as defined by Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol and is equal to one metric tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent calculated using the global warming potentials as defined in Schedule 1. “carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent” means an amount of a substance listed in column 1 of Schedule 1 multiplied by the Global Warming Potential listed in column 3. “compliance unit” means an eligible domestic credit or an eligible Kyoto unit. “covered activity” means a covered activity specified in any regulation listed in Schedule 2. “eligible domestic credit” means: (a) a tradeable unit issued under any program or measure established under section 322 of CEPA, including a temporary domestic credit and is equal to one metric tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent calculated using the global warming potentials as defined in Schedule 1; (b) a tradeable unit, equal to one metric tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent calculated using the global warming potentials as defined in Schedule 1, issued under section 16 of these regulations; or (c) a Technology Investment Unit, equal to one metric tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent calculated using the global warming potentials as defined in Schedule 1, issued pursuant to the Greenhouse Gas Technology Investment Fund Act.

  • Decentralized Composting Instead of Landfilling of Organic Waste - Greenhouse Gas Reduction from a Potential CDM Project in Kumasi, Ghana
    UPTEC W09 030 Examensarbete 30 hp Mars 2010 Decentralized composting instead of landfilling of organic waste - greenhouse gas reduction from a potential CDM project in Kumasi, Ghana Andreas Boström ABSTRACT Decentralized composting instead of landfilling of organic waste - greenhouse gas reduction from a potential CDM project in Kumasi, Ghana Andreas Boström Emission reduction of greenhouse gases generated from a landfill has within the framework of a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project been estimated concerning a potential compost project in the 1.9 million city of Kumasi, Ghana. The emission reductions mainly concern methane (CH4) and originate from the event that the management of organic solid waste, which currently is deposited at Kumasi’s only formal landfill, instead is to be composted at 124 decentralised compost stations relocated in the city. The compost stations would, according to the idea in this report, replace the 124 waste stations to which the majority of the Kumasi citizens presently leave their wastes. Methane gas is generated in the landfill as a result of the anaerobic environment that has arisen. This environment is a consequence of the event that the decomposition of organic material initially consumes the present oxygen and is maintained by the lack of oxygen supply. Composting is on the other hand an aerobic process where methane formation hence is prevented. This is the core of the following emission reduction project, since methane is estimated to contribute to global warming 21 times the impact of carbon dioxide according to the concept of Global Warming Potential adopted by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
