The Carbon Trust The Carbon
We are a not for profit group with the mission to accelerate the move to a sustainable, low carbon economy
– We advise businesses, governments and the public sector on their opportunities in a low carbon world – We measure and certify the environmental impact of organisations, supply chains and products – We help develop and deploy low carbon technologies and solutions, from energy efficiency to renewable power

March 2013; climate-warming gas in atmosphere passes 400ppm milestone
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
Confirms global warming trends & that human action is the dominant cause of climate change
by the UN in 1988 to collect and synthetize the latest science on climate change
confirmation of global warming trends and the expected negative impacts of current emission pathways on the global climate

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change What does this world map mean?
Scientists are now all but certain that climate change is mostly caused by human action, and that it is already leading to changes in regional weather patterns, with extreme events on the increase
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change A linear relationship exists between temperature increase and anthropogenic emissions
The IPCC confirm that:
unequivocal;
climate system is clear; and
influence has been the dominant cause of observed warming. To put it another way, there is no
the observed level of warming, it can only be attributed to human activity. If we are to contain to a 2 C rise then we have already used over half our global carbon budget
Global population growth will impact UK markets
A bigger, healthier, better educated and aspirational population
› UN projects world population will
grow from 6.1 billion in 2000 to 8.9 billion in 2050
› OECD forecasts that the global middle
class will increase by three billion people over the next 20 years
› Demand for energy, food, water and
materials (such as steel) is expected to increase by 30% to 80% by 2030
Government policy will be driven by
Stresses on energy, water, land and material resources
› Economic impacts driven by scarcity ›
Resource price increases
›
Increased price volatility
› Environmental impacts driven by use ›
Increased carbon emissions
›
Water stress
›
Land use
› Resulting in…. ›
Reduced security of supply
›
New regulations
Global businesses are telling us and the UK government that they are conscious of the resource scarcity risks They are using their purchasing power to shape the market
