Ilmastonmuutoksen yrityslähtöisiä ratkaisuja kehittävä Climate Leadership Coalition (CLC) järjestää useita tilaisuuksia jäsentensä ja yhteistyökumppaneidensa kanssa COP27-ilmastonmuutoskonferenssin yhteydessä Egyptin Sharm el-Sheikissä 6.-18.11.2022. CLC:n painopisteet COP27:ssa ovat ilmastoinvestointien lisääminen, hiilidioksidin hinnoittelun edistäminen ja hiilikädenjäkikonseptin tunnetuksi tekeminen.
CLC on jäsenmäärältään Euroopnan laajin ilmasto-businessverkosto ja se osallistuu kokoukseen tarkkailijana. CLC:n delegaatiossa on mukana kahdeksan CLC:n yritys- ja organisaatiojäsentä: Wärtsilä, Huhtamäki, St1, Stora Enso, Vestas, Coolbrook, PuroEarth ja Aalto-yliopisto. CLC järjestää tilaisuuksia yhteistyössä muun muassa Kansainvälisen kauppakamari ICC:n, Suomen ympäristöministeriön, EK:n ja Sitran kanssa. CLC:n delegaation vetäjä on toimitusjohtaja Tuuli Kaskinen.
”CLC:n rooli COP27-konferenssin tarkkailijana antaa delegaatiollemme mahdollisuuden seurata jo sovittujen globaalien ilmastotoimien toteutumista ja nostaa esiin yrityksille tärkeitä teemoja. Erityisesti hiilen hinnoittelun edistäminen on agendallamme. Ilmastokokous on myös tapaamispaikka, jossa etsitään kumppaneita ilmastokestävien ratkaisuiden tekemiseen. CLC:n COP27-delegaatio seuraa konferenssin tapahtumia ja vaikuttaa paikan päällä koko kahden viikon ajan”, kertoo Tuuli Kaskinen.

We aim for knowledge-based governance and innovation to achieve climate goals. This requires global data coverage, science literacy, and effective knowledge brokering
between data providers and multisectoral end-users. We will showcase successful examples of climate data used by stakeholders in governments, private sector (consulting),
the media, and education. This will be followed by an interactive discussion to identify the data needs and challenges faced by these stakeholders, and co-design best practices between data providers, data intermediaries, communicators, decision-makers and educators.
The speakers:

Taking a Strategic View on Climate Change: Advancing Green Growth While Managing Transboundary Climate Risks
Time: 13.45-14.45 EET
Venue: Nordic Pavillion
Partners: Confederation of the Finnish Industries (EK), Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra, Finnish Ministry of the Environment, Swedish Environment Institute
Industries and governments have worked together in the Nordics to set ambitious climate targets and used them as a mechanism to boost innovation in clean solutions, thus serving as a stepstone for creating green exports. Nordic countries are widely considered front-runners on climate action but they have yet to effectively address the climate risks they are exposed to through trade. Collaboration within the Nordics and with international trading partners in overcoming the challenges resulting from cross-border and cascading climate risk is another industrial strategy challenge, but how can these be combined into a more holistic strategic approach to jointly address climate change mitigation and adaptation?
The speakers:
-Keynote by Maria Ohisalo, Minister of Environment, Finland
-Industry-Government collaboration in the Nordics to set and deliver on ambitious climate targets: Janne Peljo, Chief Policy Advisor at Confederation of Finnish Industries
-Climate risk in international trade for the Nordics: What does climate adaptation and resilience really mean in a globally connected world and what are the remits and responsibilities of Nordic countries? Frida Lager, Research Associate at Stockholm Environment Institute
-SEIPanel discussion: How governments and industries can work together to take a strategic view on climate change mitigation and adaptation Panelists: Ole Erik Almlid, Director General of the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO), Johanna Pirinen, SVP Head of Sustainability, Stora Enso, Sandeep Sarin, Market Development Manager, Wärtsilä India, Tuuli Kaskinen, CEO, CLC moderating the panel discussion
