Sobre o webinar
This webinar provided a brief overview of the GHG Protocol Policy and Action Standard, which can be used to estimate the greenhouse gas impacts of policies and actions. Over 270 participants from 40 countries were involved in developing the standard alongside the GHG Protocol Mitigation Goal Standard. As part of the process, pilot tests were conducted on 27 policies and actions in 20 countries and cities to make sure the standard works in practice.
The standard may be used at multiple points in time: before policy implementation (to estimate the expected future effects of a planned policy or action); during policy implementation (to estimate achieved effects to date and the ongoing performance of key performance indicators); and after policy implementation (to estimate what effects a policy or action has had on GHG emissions).
Following a presentation on the standard, the case of the air quality management plan of the metropolitan area of Valle de Aburrá in Colombia will be presented as an example from piloting the standard in Latin America.
