India’s emission trading scheme (ETS), dubbed the Carbon Credit and Trading Scheme (CCTS), passed into legislation last year. CCTS will be an extremely important policy instrument in the path to reach net zero in 2070 because it essentially incentivises industrial entities to reduce emissions.

Asia is home to 60% of the world's population, 52% of global agricultural production, and 43% of agriculture-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. While a large portion of the Asian population depends on agriculture for their livelihood and food security, the agriculture sector is one of the main sources of GHG emissions in the region.

UNCTAD’s Review of Maritime Transport 2023 calls for a “just and equitable transition” to a decarbonized shipping industry. The sector, whose greenhouse gas emissions have risen 20% over the last decade, operates an ageing fleet that runs almost exclusively on fossil fuels.

Since the adoption of the Paris Agreement, governments and economic actors have increasingly been setting greenhouse gas emissions reduction or net-zero targets. Amidst risks of delayed action and greenwashing, there is need to understand whether climate-related targets and transition plans are consistent with the Paris Agreement.

CEEW's effort towards engaging relevant stakeholders in the preparatory phase prior to the establishment of the Indian Carbon Market (ICM) have shown that there is a limited understanding of an Emission Trading System (ETS) among Indian stakeholders and the importance of consistent engagement through capacity-building exercises.

Addressing methane emissions from livestock and rice systems is vital for promoting sustainable agriculture and mitigating climate change. This FAO report comprehensively addresses methane emissions in agriculture and their impact on global greenhouse gas levels.

The key objective of this paper is to demonstrate what smallholders can do in the dairy sector given the right ecosystem. India’s story of the “white revolution” is a story that can inspire millions in smallholder economies.

This paper introduces seven key functions of an accountability system for corporate climate action. Further provide selected observations on how to improve the accountability system’s status quo.

This report aims to shed light on net zero portfolio targets’ internal climate prioritisation value (Do they drive financial institutions’ climate action?) and real-world impact value (What can we expect from those targets? How useful are they to achieve international climate goals? Do we need them?).

A groundbreaking report by a group of independent experts released by the United Nations outlines steps governments should take to maximize the impact of policies and actions by tackling the climate and sustainable development crises at the same time, creating synergies.
