Climate Literacy

Constant Damage to climate & regulatory pressure necessities Climate literacy. Understanding the science of climate change, its causes, its potential impacts, and the actions individuals, societies and industries can take to address it is important . It encompasses knowledge of the Earth’s climate system, the role of human activities (like burning fossil fuels), and the importance of sustainability for future generations.

Key components of climate literacy include:

Understanding the Science of Climate Change:

The Earth’s climate system and how it works.Greenhouse gases and their role in global warming.Natural vs. human-induced climate change.

Recognizing the Impacts

How climate change affects weather patterns, ecosystems, and communities.Potential consequences for agriculture, health, and infrastructure.Global and local implications of rising temperatures, sea level rise, and extreme weather events.

Knowing Solutions and Actions

How reducing carbon emissions can help mitigate climate change.The role of renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and hydropower.Sustainable practices, such as reducing waste, conserving water, and using energy efficiently.Individual actions to promote sustainability, such as choosing eco-friendly products, reducing consumption, and supporting policies for climate action.

Engagement and Advocacy

Encouraging others to learn about climate change.Supporting climate policies that prioritize environmental health.Advocacy for climate justice, ensuring that marginalized communities receive fair treatment in climate action efforts.

We help to build climate literacy to equip individuals with the knowledge to understand the urgency of addressing climate change and empowers them to make informed decisions that contribute to a more sustainable future.

Understanding of UN Models, RBI Models & Climate Risk essence is paramount. 

Scenario Analysis

Scenario Analysis make institutions climate risk proof. Climate scenario analysis is a process used to evaluate the potential future impacts of climate change on various systems, sectors, and regions. Scenario Analysis is important to all industries and especially to the banks in order to avoid future stranded assets. This analysis typically involves the construction of different “scenarios” that represent a range of plausible futures based on varying assumptions about climate change, policies, technologies, and other factors. It helps governments, businesses, and organizations understand the risks and opportunities posed by climate change, guiding decisions related to mitigation, adaptation, and sustainability. Regulators like RBI emphasis more on Climate Scenario Plotting to keep banks risks free.

Here are the key elements and steps in climate scenario analysis:

Climate Projections

Scenarios are typically based on climate projections such as temperature changes, precipitation patterns, and sea level rise, which are generated using climate models.

Socioeconomic Factors

These include variables like population growth, economic development, technological progress, and policy interventions.

Mitigation and Adaptation Measures

These represent efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change.

Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs)

These complement RCPs by addressing different socioeconomic scenarios, such as global cooperation, technological advancement, or more fragmented development pathways.

Our Scope of work includes –

  • Impact Modeling: This involves using climate models to assess how different climate scenarios will affect physical systems (e.g., temperature, extreme weather events, sea level rise) and socioeconomic systems (e.g., infrastructure, agriculture, health).
  • Risk Assessment: The analysis identifies potential risks, such as disruptions to supply chains, crop failure, health impacts, and changes in water availability.
  • Vulnerability and Exposure: Scenarios help to identify vulnerable regions, sectors, and populations that are most exposed to climate risks.
  • Mitigation Strategies as per regulatory guidelines: Reducing emissions through renewable energy, energy efficiency, carbon capture, and storage (CCS). Scenarios can inform climate policy, including carbon pricing, regulatory frameworks, and international climate agreements.
  • Business Planning: Companies use climate scenario analysis to assess the potential risks to their operations, supply chains, and investments, especially in sectors like mobility, energy, agriculture, and insurance.
  • Investment Decision Making: Financial institutions use scenario analysis to determine how different climate futures could impact their portfolios and to assess whether investments are aligned with a low-carbon transition.

SBTi Net Zero

This is important to understand science of Climate Change. The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global initiative that encourages companies to set science-based emissions reduction targets in line with climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement. It helps organizations set targets that are consistent with keeping global warming below 1.5°C or well below 2°C compared to pre-industrial levels.

We provide guidance to companies as per The SBTi’s net-zero standard to set credible and transparent net-zero goals. It helps ensure that the path to net-zero is in line with the latest climate science and that companies’ actions are credible and impactful.

Our digital solutions provides versatility to achieve Net Zero. Banks & other institutions can plot where they are and what it takes to be Net ZERO.

Scope 1, 2 & 3 Accounting

Scope 1, 2, and 3 accounting helps businesses measure and manage their carbon footprints, and it is important for transparency in corporate sustainability reporting. Companies can use this data to set targets for emissions reduction, improve energy efficiency, and meet regulatory or consumer demands for environmental responsibility

We provide digital solutions to calculate Scope 1, 2 & 3.

Carbon Trading

Carbon trading refers to the buying and selling of carbon credits as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These credits represent a reduction of one metric ton of carbon dioxide (or equivalent greenhouse gases) that has been avoided or removed from the atmosphere through various projects, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, or reforestation.

Key Components of Carbon Trading

Carbon Credit Market

Producers of carbon credits are largely through projects registered under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol.These projects are generally focused on renewable energy (solar, wind), energy efficiency (improvements in industrial processes), and afforestation/reforestation (carbon sink projects).

Voluntary and Compliance Markets

Compliance Markets: These markets are governed by international agreements and require countries or corporations to meet emissions reduction targets.Voluntary Markets: Corporations or entities can purchase carbon credits voluntarily to offset their emissions.
