However, there is currently no common understanding of what \u2018Alignment\u2019 with the Paris Agreement means. In our recent report, <strong>I<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4<\/span>CE<\/strong>\u00a0 has gone back to the Paris Agreement to propose a framework to help define this concept and process. Our results stress that a commitment to \u201cParis Alignment\u201d is a commitment to support the achievement of the three goals of the Paris Agreement on mitigation, adaptation and finance. To do so, actors and institutions need to scale-down all activities that do not contribute to these goals \u2013 and seek whenever possible to contribute to both the incremental and transformative changes needed to achieve a low-GHG, climate-resilient development. While action on climate change must occur globally, actors should seek to take into account the national contexts and pathways of economies and societies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\"><strong>How is this different from what financial institutions and other actors are already doing on climate change?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Governments, financial institutions and economic actors have often started to integrate climate change in their strategies and operations. Paris Alignment implies building on these existing approaches \u2013 but requires to take into account three additional \u2018dimensions\u2019:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First, actors should look across all of their activities and consider their impact on systems and value chains.<\/li>\n<li>Second, actors should look at both the near-term effects of its activities on climate action (emissions, resilience), but also seek to make sure it is also\u00a0supporting a decarbonized and resilient\u00a0future.<\/li>\n<li>Third, actors should actively\u00a0seek to contribute to climate goals by ensuring that all activities\u00a01) Do No Harm; 2) Support Paris-Consistent Climate Co-Benefits;\u00a0and 3) whenever possible Foster Transformative Outcomes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-58418 size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye-1024x458.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye-1024x458.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye-768x343.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye-1536x687.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/staging.i4ce.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Bulls-Eye.jpg 1785w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\"><strong>Which actors will take action to align with Paris and why?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>All economic actors \u2013 whether seeking sustainable development impacts or with a commercial focus \u2013 have an interest to align their activities with the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Many will be called to directly contribute to the achievement of the long-term climate goals by shareholders and other stakeholders;<\/li>\n<li>All will need to manage the risks and opportunities associated with the needed transformation of the economy and the financial environment; and<\/li>\n<li>All will need to take into account and respond to the changing physical climate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, the direct contribution of each economic actor to achieving these long-term goals will vary depending on their mandates, roles and responsibilities.
