1 Climate Smart
2 Climate Smart and the Climate Challenge Global temperatures are increasing and science has confirmed that we must limit the rise to under 2 C in order to avoid the most serious consequences for people, the environment and economies worldwide. Weather patterns that are more irregular, combined with more frequent extreme weather events, have a significant impact on agriculture and food security. The knock-on effect of reduced yields and lower incomes in vulnerable areas will raise food insecurity across the globe. It is vital to increase the resilience of agricultural systems by anticipating and tackling these challenges. Success will help secure livelihoods, increase food security, and reduce the emissions intensity of agriculture. To address the challenges of climate change, agricultural production systems need to be transformed to achieve greater productivity, be more resource efficient, and become more resilient to risks, shocks and long-term climate variability. According to the IPCC AR5 report, the, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector contributes about 25% of human-generated GHG emissions, mainly from deforestation and agricultural emissions from livestock, soil and nutrient management. Moving to sustainable agricultural practices will play a key role in limiting global warming to no more than 2 C. This 2 C limit was endorsed internationally in 2010 in order to avoid dangerous climate change. What is Climate-Smart? Climate-Smart (CSA) is a relatively new approach to developing the technical, political and financial conditions for the achievement of sustainable development goals. It helps to address food security and climate challenges through three pillars: Sustainably increasing agricultural productivity and incomes Adapting and building resilience to climate change Reducing and/or eliminating GHG emissions CSA is a harmonized way of addressing the multiple challenges faced by agricultural systems. Often based on existing practices, policies and institutions, it focuses on achieving the desired outcomes without being prescriptive about practices or technologies. CSA involves making site-specific assessments to identify the best agricultural production technologies and practices for the situation. 30

4 COP21 and the LCTPi About COP21 and the LCTPi In December 2015, a global climate agreement will be brokered at COP21, the Paris Climate Change Conference. This is a key moment for all stakeholders to contribute to decisive climate action. Launched in Lima in partnership with SDSN and IEA, LCTPi is supported by the French Presidency of COP21 and is part of the Lima-Paris Action Agenda. It aims to present action plans at COP21 that will accelerate low-carbon technology and scale up the deployment of business solutions consistent with the 2 C objective. LCTPi is a collaborative platform, gathering together project teams and stakeholders to discuss and agree the concrete actions that are needed. It focuses on solutions that are beyond business as usual. It is a unique opportunity to showcase how your business can and is tackling climate change. To ensure the development and implementation of business solutions that address climate change, we must: Remove the barriers that are preventing existing solutions from being deployed Develop new solutions to complement existing ones 32
5 COP21 and the LCTPi LCTPi has several focus areas, and for each area the deliverables include: Business oriented solution roadmaps including critical milestones Analysis of barriers and identification of solutions, financial requirements, policies and PPP (public-private partnerships) opportunities that facilitate scale up Strengthened business and government dialogue to create enabling frameworks for investment A work program beyond Paris to ensure enduring implementation at scale Underway Renewables Carbon Capture & Storage Energy Efficiency in Buildings Materials: Cement Sustainability Initiative Advanced Biofuels Climate Smart Forests & Forest Products as Carbon Sinks Low Carbon Freight Transport Scoping Smart Grids Low Carbon Passenger Mobility Materials: Chemicals Digitization 33
