PROJECT STATUS

PHASE 2 | Development of the Roadmap

The Roadmap is currently under development, and the objective is to have it ready in October/November 2022, for the COP27 meeting.

Approach for the Development of the Roadmap:

OUTLINE
• Mapping the carbon emissions of an event
• Guidance for calculating the carbon footprint of an event
• Opportunities and goals for carbon reduction
• Guidance for offsetting of residual emissions
• Making credible Net Zero claims and interim milestones
• Collaboration with other industries

4 STEPS
1 | Desk research – November/February
2 | Industry engagement for input – November/March
3 | Drafting and reviews of Roadmap – March/August
4 | Roadmap finalization, design and communication – September/October

1 and 2 overlap and their output will attempt to answer the following questions:
• What are the main sources of emissions that relate to events?
• How are they / can they be measured?
• Where do they fall within scope 1, 2, 3 of the various stakeholders?
• How should they be prioritized?
• What actions can be taken to reduce the emissions from those sources?
• What kind of timeline are we looking at for getting to Net Zero with each?
• What industry solutions/initiatives are needed?
