Challenges and opportunities for climate adaptation in Finnish urban environments
The aim of the project is to identify the most important climate‑adaptation needs in Finnish urban environments over the coming decades, compile existing measures, assess their effectiveness, and examine business opportunities linked to climate adaptation.
Finland’s climate handprint – Challenges and opportunities in assessing climate benefits and its role in state climate work
The goal of the project is to clarify whether the positive climate impacts achieved through export products can be used to supplement the overall picture of the state’s climate actions.
RAKEN – Energy efficiency in buildings
The aim of the project is to evaluate the significance of energy use in the building stock, the impacts of energy‑efficiency measures, their cost-effectiveness, and their effects on Finland’s competitiveness.
Synthesis of emission reductions and economic impacts in the AFOLU sector
The project assesses the possibilities for reducing emissions in the agriculture, forestry and other land‑use sectors (AFOLU). Based on the findings, recommendations will be prepared for decision‑makers on practical ways to move forward.
The Finnish Climate Change Panel report: Reforming EU climate policy is an opportunity for Finland
The latest report of the Finnish Climate Change Panel discusses the future of the European Union climate policy. Achieving the 2040 climate target, primarily through EU-level emissions pricing, creates economic opportunities for Finland. Based on the results of the report, the Finnish Climate Change Panel provides policymakers with recommendations for developing EU emissions trading system.
Finnish Climate Change Panel memorandum and report: Achieving climate targets requires rapid corrective action in the LULUCF sector
The Finnish Climate Change Panel's latest publications deal with Finland's pathway to carbon neutrality and the situation in the land use, or LULUCF, sector. Meeting the 2030 commitment set by the EU is an important step towards carbon neutrality by 2035. The challenges in the LULUCF sector must be resolved if we are to avoid other sectors having to bear more of the load when it comes to climate actions. Forest use must change if Finland is to meet its national climate targets and those jointly agreed within the EU.
Carbon neutrality 2035 is a legitimate and achievable goal
While the transformation of forests from sinks to emission sources undoubtedly makes it more difficult to achieve the target of carbon neutrality enshrined in Finland’s Climate […]
