Scottish Enterprise, for example, helps Scottish organisations innovate at home and export their solutions internationally, securing early-mover advantage; helps to create the jobs and businesses of the future, and supporting existing businesses and organisations to become more resilient in transitioning to a net zero world; and ensures that we achieve an inclusive and ‘just transition’ that improves the opportunities, life chances and wellbeing of everyone in Scotland. The Scottish National Investment Bank supports a low carbon transition, delivering a £3 billion green investment portfolio. The Scottish Government and its enterprise and skills agencies have supported a network of industry leadership groups, accelerators and innovation centres for many years. Their role in the context of climate change is to bring together industry partners to provide leadership in addressing priorities in meeting Scotland’s climate change ambitions and targets. The Scottish Energy Advisory Board, for example, includes a series of industry leadership and supply chain groups drawn from across the wider spectrum of low carbon opportunities. Beyond energy, there are similar leadership engagement structures in Zero Emission Sustainability Mobility (Michelin Scotland Innovation Parc), Water (Hydro Nation) and the Construction Scotland Innovation Centre amongst others. The input from these groups helps inform the development of Scottish Government policy, reflected in the energy strategy and updated climate change plan. The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years. This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence. The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park. In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology. There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes. One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.) The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy. It aims to increase SME capability in low carbon technical innovation and makes it easier for SMEs and universities to connect through the Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN). KEN, supported by Scottish Government and the Enterprise Agencies, offers Scottish SMEs access to resources including project funding to work with Scottish universities on low-carbon innovation projects.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Buildings & Lighting sector.,"The topic of geothermal energy is becoming increasingly important among the energy technologies. NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW. This applies to both ground collectors laid flat and geothermal probes up to 100 metres deep. (www.geothermie.nrw.de)",0

In 2019, renewable power was generated in NRW by around 280,000 PV systems with an installed capacity of almost 5,300 MW. The costs of generating solar power through roof systems are now lower than the grid purchase prices, which means that own consumption of solar power is becoming increasingly important, not only ecologically but also economically. Ground-mounted PV systems, which in NRW are permitted along infrastructure routes and on conversion sites, can also make an important contribution to the power supply with their low production costs. (www.energieagentur.nrw/solarenergie)A new map was published in the Energieatlas NRW (Energy Atlas NRW) in November 2018: the state-wide Solar Roof Register NRW. On the approximately eleven million roofs in NRW there lies great potential for generating power from solar energy using photovoltaics: around 68 terawatt hours of electricity could be produced per year. It is now possible for every homeowner in NRW to find out with a simple click whether and to what extent their roof surface is suitable for solar energy (both photovoltaics and solar thermal energy). An integrated solar calculator calculates the economic efficiency of a possible solar system on the basis of roof shape and inclination and according to individual settings such as power consumption, load profile, storage system, etc., and can serve as a basis for planning. Towns and municipalities also have the option of integrating the Solar Register into their own website via a link tailored to the area in question.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2016 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,611 hectares, 0.35% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2016 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend.

Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

We estimate this increase to be 27,984 metric tons CO2e.  Most of the increase can be explained by the relatively cooler winter, measured by heating degree days.",1

This means that our response to the climate emergency must be the result of widespread collaboration not only across government but the rest of society. Climate Change PlanTo account for our latest emissions reduction targets within the 2019 Act, the Scottish Government has committed to updating its current Climate Chance Plan. The updated Plan will now be laid before the Scottish Parliament in late 2020 for scrutiny; it will be recast to focus on a green recovery from Covid-19. The updated Plan will draw on the best available evidence to set out clear emissions reduction pathways across the majority of the action areas set out in this table. These include; transport; energy; industry; buildings; waste; agriculture; and land use and forestry - all with the common goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045. Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2)•	In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation.Other Key Action AreasOut with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places.  National Performance FrameworkThe Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

+Please provide the details of the monitoring system in place within your region.,"Minnesota benefits from more freshwater than any other of the 48 contiguous U.S. States. The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota. For example, a drought in 2012 led the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restrict navigation on the lower Mississippi River, which affected shipping upstream.",0

Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks. We can manage our drainage systems to make streams and rivers more resilient to heavy rains.

As a result of increasing temperature, crop production areas may shift to new regions of the state where the temperature range for growth and yield of those crops is optimal unless new climate adapted varieties are developed and utilized. According to the National Climate Assessment, the Midwest growing season has lengthened by almost two weeks since 1950 due in large part to earlier timing of the last spring freeze. This trend is expected to continue. While a longer growing season may increase total crop production, other climate changes, such as increased crop losses and soil erosion from more frequent and intense storms, and increases in pests and invasive species, could outweigh this benefit. There may also be higher livestock losses during periods of extreme heat and humidity. Losses of livestock from extreme heat lead to a challenge in disposal of animal carcasses. In an attempt to adapt to increased temperatures, livestock areas in Minnesota may shift farther north. As a result of new livestock areas and the resulting manure production, farmers may transition to manure-based fertilizer applications in areas where traditionally only commercial fertilizers have been used, with accompanying environmental advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, extreme heat can cause roads to buckle and damage other transportation infrastructure such as rail lines. This may increase expenditures for repairs, dangerous conditions for drivers, and potential for travel disruption.Flash flooding from extreme precipitation can damage the built environment, affecting commercial and residential buildings, roads, parks, and stormwater infrastructure.

These exist primarily in the area of administrative action e.g. in the allocation of financial grants. Targets for greenhouse gas reduction are necessary for the states to implement the targeted climate protection measures. Many federalstates in Germany do already have climate change targets, but there is no uniform approach. In major climate-relevant areas of regulation, the legislative competence is federal. Responsibility of the Länder is limited to the energy industry, roadtransport and air pollution. Thus, states can regulate on building codes as well as local and state planning. Some states have also enacted their own climate protection laws. Moreover, states have the opportunity to contribute to the reduction of federallegislation through the Federal Council. The Federal Council may introduce their own bills in the Parliament. There are basically laws requiring approval and laws that do not. In the first case the Federal Council has to agree before the law comesinto force. This accounts for all laws that have an impact on the finances of the states. In contrast, most laws are non-approval, where the Federal Council can only appeal.",0

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather.

A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

+Please identify the substantive risks to your region’s water security as well as the timescale and level of risk.,"Increasing temperatures impact Minnesota’s agricultural industry since agriculture is highly dependent on specific climate conditions. As a result of increasing temperature, crop production areas may shift to new regions of the state where the temperature range for growth and yield of those crops is optimal unless new climate adapted varieties are developed and utilized. According to the National Climate Assessment, the Midwest growing season has lengthened by almost two weeks since 1950 due in large part to earlier timing of the last spring freeze. This trend is expected to continue. While a longer growing season may increase total crop production, other climate changes, such as increased crop losses and soil erosion from more frequent and intense storms, and increases in pests and invasive species, could outweigh this benefit. There may also be higher livestock losses during periods of extreme heat and humidity. Losses of livestock from extreme heat lead to a challenge in disposal of animal carcasses. In an attempt to adapt to increased temperatures, livestock areas in Minnesota may shift farther north. As a result of new livestock areas and the resulting manure production, farmers may transition to manure-based fertilizer applications in areas where traditionally only commercial fertilizers have been used, with accompanying environmental advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, extreme heat can cause roads to buckle and damage other transportation infrastructure such as rail lines. This may increase expenditures for repairs, dangerous conditions for drivers, and potential for travel disruption.Flash flooding from extreme precipitation can damage the built environment, affecting commercial and residential buildings, roads, parks, and stormwater infrastructure.

These goals were established after extensive review of existing statutes and other goals and objectives outlined for the 24-cabinet-level state agencies.  The GHG goal of 30% reduction by 2025 relative to a 2005 calculated baseline mirrored goals outlined in the 2007 Next Generation Energy Act.The Executive Order also established the Office of Enterprise Sustainability (OES) to assist the 24-cabinet level state agencies in achieving their sustainability goals. The OES created a one-of-a-kind sustainability reporting tool and for the last three years has been tracking state agencies’ progress towards achieving goals outlined in the Executive Order. Last year, OES published a public facing dashboard at www.sustainability.mn.gov to follow State government’s progress towards meeting the sustainability goals and provide transparency in government operations. The dashboard measures progress at both the State and agency-specific level. To date, Minnesota’s State Agencies have achieved 84% progress towards goal. Reductions in GHG emissions in state government operations is largely due to the decarbonization of the electricity grid and long-term reductions in energy use in state facilities e.g. Minnesota State Capitol Complex.  In 2019, GHG emissions from state operations again increased with the largest driver being from fossil fuel consumed in the state fleet, particularly in the medium sized vehicles. Colder weather reduced miles per gallon and more snowfall required additional snow removal. Emission factors for delivered energies like electricity and district energy also did not improve last year.The OES is only tracking GHG emissions from the 24-cabinet level state agencies.

At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks. We can manage our drainage systems to make streams and rivers more resilient to heavy rains. And we can assess vulnerabilities of our highways, homes and other infrastructure to improve their resilience to extreme rainfall and floods.",0

Their role in the context of climate change is to bring together industry partners to provide leadership in addressing priorities in meeting Scotland’s climate change ambitions and targets.  The Scottish Energy Advisory Board, for example, includes a series of industry leadership and supply chain groups drawn from across the wider spectrum of low carbon opportunities. Beyond energy, there are similar leadership engagement structures in Zero Emission Mobility, Water (Hydro Nation) amongst others.  The input from these groups helps inform the development of Scottish Government policy, reflected in the energy strategy and climate change plan.The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years.  This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence.  The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park.  In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology.There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes.

For example, before laying a draft statutory instrument containing an order setting a carbon budget, the UK Government must take into account any representations made by the Scottish Government.  The UK Act also establishes the Climate Change Committee to provide independent advice about reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change.  The Climate Change Committee is jointly sponsored by the UK Government and devolved administrations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland who work together to appoint members of the Committee and agree the Committee’s work programme.While Scotland has its own climate change legislation, and can use devolved powers in a number of areas to reduce  emissions, substantial levers are controlled by the UK Government including parts of the fiscal system, decarbonisation of the gas and electricity grid, and development of hydrogen capacity.  Policies and proposals where competence is not wholly devolved are informed by regular discussions between the Scottish and UK Governments.The Scottish Government also works with the UK Government to share best practice and research on climate change, and contributes to UK Government reports on climate change as appropriate. Despite progress in Scotland, the scale of the challenge in reducing emissions means that we also need urgent action in areas reserved to the UK Government to unlock further action in Scotland. The Climate Change Plan update contains our full list of UK Government asks and these include changes to parts of the fiscal system, decarbonisation of the gas and electricity grid, the development of hydrogen capacity, further investment in carbon capture and storage and further incentive mechanisms for renewable electricity deployment (e.g. CfD). There are also key areas where we need to drive demand, where collaboration across a UK market would help to capture the opportunities from the transition, such as in heat decarbonisation, industrial decarbonisation, zero emission vehicles and green finance.

In 2019, renewable power was generated in NRW by around 280,000 PV systems with an installed capacity of almost 5,300 MW. The costs of generating solar power through roof systems are now lower than the grid purchase prices, which means that own consumption of solar power is becoming increasingly important, not only ecologically but also economically. Ground-mounted PV systems, which in NRW are permitted along infrastructure routes and on conversion sites, can also make an important contribution to the power supply with their low production costs. (www.energieagentur.nrw/solarenergie)A new map was published in the Energieatlas NRW (Energy Atlas NRW) in November 2018: the state-wide Solar Roof Register NRW. On the approximately eleven million roofs in NRW there lies great potential for generating power from solar energy using photovoltaics: around 68 terawatt hours of electricity could be produced per year. It is now possible for every homeowner in NRW to find out with a simple click whether and to what extent their roof surface is suitable for solar energy (both photovoltaics and solar thermal energy). An integrated solar calculator calculates the economic efficiency of a possible solar system on the basis of roof shape and inclination and according to individual settings such as power consumption, load profile, storage system, etc., and can serve as a basis for planning.

It is central to the government’s objectives within the economic strategy and embedded in policy across all key sectors that need to reduce emissions.  Examples of this can be found in Scotland’s renewable energy sector and energy efficiency programmes - supported by our Energy Strategy, within our circular economy and environmental policies and in our approach to sustainable transport where there is a commitment to phase out the need for new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2032.  These are some of the key examples of where Scotland is taking action and positioning itself to reap the economic benefits of the transition to the low carbon economy. Furthermore, fully capturing the opportunities of our just transition to net zero means creating green jobs, developing sustainable skills and nurturing wellbeing. The Scottish Government’s approach is designed to increase the number of good, green jobs, and to enable people to access these jobs through training and reskilling. The £100m Green Jobs Fund will help to deliver this and the Climate emergency Skills Action Plan will help to further align the skills system with the demand resulting from a green recovery and the transition to net zero, The Scottish Government is also committed to responding to the climate emergency in a way that aligns with our ambitions of transitioning towards a wellbeing economy.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Buildings & Lighting sector.,"The topic of geothermal energy is becoming increasingly important among the energy technologies. NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW.

NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW. This applies to both ground collectors laid flat and geothermal probes up to 100 metres deep. (www.geothermie.nrw.de)",1

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles. Light-duty truck numbers have been steadily increasing and now outnumber smaller passenger cars.

The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years. This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence. The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park. In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology. There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes. One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.) The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy. It aims to increase SME capability in low carbon technical innovation and makes it easier for SMEs and universities to connect through the Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN). KEN, supported by Scottish Government and the Enterprise Agencies, offers Scottish SMEs access to resources including project funding to work with Scottish universities on low-carbon innovation projects.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Industry sector.,"The topic of geothermal energy is becoming increasingly important among the energy technologies. NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW. This applies to both ground collectors laid flat and geothermal probes up to 100 metres deep. (www.geothermie.nrw.de)",0

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Buildings & Lighting sector.,"Increasing temperatures impact Minnesota’s agricultural industry since agriculture is highly dependent on specific climate conditions. As a result of increasing temperature, crop production areas may shift to new regions of the state where the temperature range for growth and yield of those crops is optimal unless new climate adapted varieties are developed and utilized. According to the National Climate Assessment, the Midwest growing season has lengthened by almost two weeks since 1950 due in large part to earlier timing of the last spring freeze. This trend is expected to continue. While a longer growing season may increase total crop production, other climate changes, such as increased crop losses and soil erosion from more frequent and intense storms, and increases in pests and invasive species, could outweigh this benefit. There may also be higher livestock losses during periods of extreme heat and humidity. Losses of livestock from extreme heat lead to a challenge in disposal of animal carcasses. In an attempt to adapt to increased temperatures, livestock areas in Minnesota may shift farther north. As a result of new livestock areas and the resulting manure production, farmers may transition to manure-based fertilizer applications in areas where traditionally only commercial fertilizers have been used, with accompanying environmental advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, extreme heat can cause roads to buckle and damage other transportation infrastructure such as rail lines. This may increase expenditures for repairs, dangerous conditions for drivers, and potential for travel disruption.Flash flooding from extreme precipitation can damage the built environment, affecting commercial and residential buildings, roads, parks, and stormwater infrastructure.

About 85 percent of the state-owned properties are the responsibility of the construction and property business NRW, whose portfolio alone comprises around 4,600 buildings. The activities of the state administration and the universities release about one million tons of CO2 per year. Around 90 percent of these emissions are generated by existing buildings, in particular by the need for space heating and electricity. The state government is developing strategies and concepts to avoid, reduce and, if necessary, offset emissions from the administration. In addition to the topic of buildings, this also concerns the expansion of renewable energies on state-owned properties, the reduction of CO2 emissions in the vehicle fleet and business trips, climate-neutral procurement, the implementation of climate-neutral events and the sensitization of employees. Since 2016, the state administration of North Rhine-Westphalia has been providing electricity for the buildings (excluding universities), which is 100 percent renewable. This enabled it to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 200,000 tonnes annually.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns.

+Please describe these current and/or anticipated impacts of climate change.,"Extreme rainfall has increased during the past century in Minnesota. Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks. We can manage our drainage systems to make streams and rivers more resilient to heavy rains.

In 2016, the North Rhine-Westphalia green economy boasted a work force of around 368,000. Its share of overall employment is 5.1%, which is higher than any other key sector in the state. With a turnover of 66.3 billion euros, the green economy contributed around 6.2% to North Rhine-Westphalia’s gross value added and has developed into a significant and integrated component of the state’s economic structure. The featured themes of the green economy encompass sustainable farming and forest management, classic sectors such as sewage and waste disposal and pollution monitoring, mitigation and restoration technologies, as well as new topics like green mobility and renewable energy. Against this background, the green economy can also be seen as a sector of transformation, tackling the greatest challenges of our time – climate change, urbanisation, resource efficiency, decarbonisation – with new ideas, innovative technologies and state-of-the-art services.

A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

The Climate Change (Scotland) Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The Committee on Climate Change (the CCC) is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation. The Scottish Government will continue to lead work to support the delivery and achievement of the world-leading Scottish climate change targets. In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill that will set a 2050 target of 90% emissions reductions in response to the Paris Agreement.

There are biodiesel producers in Lünen, Neuss and Südlohn which are among the largest in Germany. North Rhine-Westphalia has a good refuelling station infrastructure for natural gas (CNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) throughout the state. Research and development projects of North Rhine-Westphalian partners are playing an important role in the development of synthetic (bio)fuels and new fuel components. Important projects include the DFG-funded cluster of excellence “Fuel Science Center” at RWTH Aachen University and the “BioMates”, “Carbon2Chem” and “C3 Mobility” projects of the German government and the European Union. These projects aim to store and use surplus renewable energy in fuels with a high energy density (power-to-fuel).North Rhine-Westphalian companies are also participating in activities to test liquefied natural gas (LNG) on the market as an alternative fuel for heavy trucks and inland navigation. Adding biogas to LNG gives it a renewable component, creating a product known as bio-LNG and there are several innovation projects in this area. The INTERREG VA project “LNG PILOTS” aims to promote the development of innovative solutions for the creation of a filling station infrastructure and, under the EU-LIFE project “Clean Inland Shipping” (CLINSH), measures are being tested to reduce pollutants in the exhaust gases of ships under real operating conditions over a period of four years. Under the NRW project “LeanDeR - LNG” a multimodal LNG infrastructure is being created at the Port of Duisburg.North Rhine-Westphalia offers a charging infrastructure with 5,156 charging points for electric vehicles.

To our knowledge, the Scottish Government is the only government that is held to account by its legislature in each and every year. The 2009 Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The CCC is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation.In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill, which increases the ambition of the targets in the 2009 Act. Following advice from the CCC in May 2019, the Scottish Government responded immediately with amendments to the Climate Change Bill to set a 2045 target for net-zero emissions of all greenhouse gases and increase the targets for 2030 and 2040. The Scottish Parliament’s Environment Committee voted in favour of these targets at Stage 2 of the Bill process in June 2019.

+Please identify the substantive risks to your region’s water security as well as the timescale and level of risk.,"Minnesota benefits from more freshwater than any other of the 48 contiguous U.S. States. The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota. For example, a drought in 2012 led the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restrict navigation on the lower Mississippi River, which affected shipping upstream.",1

A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes.

The Climate Change (Scotland) Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The Committee on Climate Change (the CCC) is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation. The Scottish Government will continue to lead work to support the delivery and achievement of the world-leading Scottish climate change targets. In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill that will set a 2050 target of 90% emissions reductions in response to the Paris Agreement.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Buildings & Lighting sector.,"There are currently around 300,000 employees working in the state administration and the universities in North Rhine-Westphalia. About 85 percent of the state-owned properties are the responsibility of the construction and property business NRW, whose portfolio alone comprises around 4,600 buildings. The activities of the state administration and the universities release about one million tons of CO2 per year. Around 90 percent of these emissions are generated by existing buildings, in particular by the need for space heating and electricity. The state government is developing strategies and concepts to avoid, reduce and, if necessary, offset emissions from the administration. In addition to the topic of buildings, this also concerns the expansion of renewable energies on state-owned properties, the reduction of CO2 emissions in the vehicle fleet and business trips, climate-neutral procurement, the implementation of climate-neutral events and the sensitization of employees. Since 2016, the state administration of North Rhine-Westphalia has been providing electricity for the buildings (excluding universities), which is 100 percent renewable. This enabled it to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 200,000 tonnes annually. In addition to the previous years, the state administration also saved around € 8 million annually in electricity costs through the central procurement of the construction and real estate business NRW from renewable electricity.

There are biodiesel producers in Lünen, Neuss and Südlohn which are among the largest in Germany. North Rhine-Westphalia has a good refuelling station infrastructure for natural gas (CNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) throughout the state. Research and development projects of North Rhine-Westphalian partners are playing an important role in the development of synthetic (bio)fuels and new fuel components. Important projects include the DFG-funded cluster of excellence “Fuel Science Center” at RWTH Aachen University and the “BioMates”, “Carbon2Chem” and “C3 Mobility” projects of the German government and the European Union. These projects aim to store and use surplus renewable energy in fuels with a high energy density (power-to-fuel).North Rhine-Westphalian companies are also participating in activities to test liquefied natural gas (LNG) on the market as an alternative fuel for heavy trucks and inland navigation. Adding biogas to LNG gives it a renewable component, creating a product known as bio-LNG and there are several innovation projects in this area. The INTERREG VA project “LNG PILOTS” aims to promote the development of innovative solutions for the creation of a filling station infrastructure and, under the EU-LIFE project “Clean Inland Shipping” (CLINSH), measures are being tested to reduce pollutants in the exhaust gases of ships under real operating conditions over a period of four years.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns.

These goals were established after extensive review of existing statutes and other goals and objectives outlined for the 24-cabinet-level state agencies.  The GHG goal of 30% reduction by 2025 relative to a 2005 calculated baseline mirrored goals outlined in the 2007 Next Generation Energy Act.The Executive Order also established the Office of Enterprise Sustainability (OES) to assist the 24-cabinet level state agencies in achieving their sustainability goals. The OES created a one-of-a-kind sustainability reporting tool and for the last three years has been tracking state agencies’ progress towards achieving goals outlined in the Executive Order. Last year, OES published a public facing dashboard at www.sustainability.mn.gov to follow State government’s progress towards meeting the sustainability goals and provide transparency in government operations. The dashboard measures progress at both the State and agency-specific level. To date, Minnesota’s State Agencies have achieved 84% progress towards goal. Reductions in GHG emissions in state government operations is largely due to the decarbonization of the electricity grid and long-term reductions in energy use in state facilities e.g. Minnesota State Capitol Complex.  In 2019, GHG emissions from state operations again increased with the largest driver being from fossil fuel consumed in the state fleet, particularly in the medium sized vehicles. Colder weather reduced miles per gallon and more snowfall required additional snow removal. Emission factors for delivered energies like electricity and district energy also did not improve last year.The OES is only tracking GHG emissions from the 24-cabinet level state agencies.

The Scottish National Investment Bank supports a low carbon transition, delivering a £3 billion green investment portfolio. The Scottish Government and its enterprise and skills agencies have supported a network of industry leadership groups, accelerators and innovation centres for many years. Their role in the context of climate change is to bring together industry partners to provide leadership in addressing priorities in meeting Scotland’s climate change ambitions and targets. The Scottish Energy Advisory Board, for example, includes a series of industry leadership and supply chain groups drawn from across the wider spectrum of low carbon opportunities. Beyond energy, there are similar leadership engagement structures in Zero Emission Sustainability Mobility (Michelin Scotland Innovation Parc), Water (Hydro Nation) and the Construction Scotland Innovation Centre amongst others. The input from these groups helps inform the development of Scottish Government policy, reflected in the energy strategy and updated climate change plan. The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years. This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence. The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park. In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology. There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes. One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.) The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy. It aims to increase SME capability in low carbon technical innovation and makes it easier for SMEs and universities to connect through the Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN).

Climate change will impact all Minnesotans, because it threatens the very basics we depend on for life-our air, food, water, shelter and security-but it will some Minnesotans more than others. Climate change is a powerful risk amplifier, especially in regards to health. Climate change will disproportionately impact many of the communities that already experience health inequities, or systemic difference in health status that are preventable and unfair.  Across Minnesota, inequities in living conditions, wealth, power, and health place low-income communities, people without access to protective measures like air conditioning or reliable transportation, and some communities of color at greater risk of experiencing the negative health impacts of climate change.

A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

North Rhine-Westphalia has a good refuelling station infrastructure for natural gas (CNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) throughout the state. Research and development projects of North Rhine-Westphalian partners are playing an important role in the development of synthetic (bio)fuels and new fuel components. Important projects include the DFG-funded cluster of excellence “Fuel Science Center” at RWTH Aachen University and the “BioMates”, “Carbon2Chem” and “C3 Mobility” projects of the German government and the European Union. These projects aim to store and use surplus renewable energy in fuels with a high energy density (power-to-fuel).North Rhine-Westphalian companies are also participating in activities to test liquefied natural gas (LNG) on the market as an alternative fuel for heavy trucks and inland navigation. Adding biogas to LNG gives it a renewable component, creating a product known as bio-LNG and there are several innovation projects in this area. The INTERREG VA project “LNG PILOTS” aims to promote the development of innovative solutions for the creation of a filling station infrastructure and, under the EU-LIFE project “Clean Inland Shipping” (CLINSH), measures are being tested to reduce pollutants in the exhaust gases of ships under real operating conditions over a period of four years.

According to FIA data from the most current cycle (2013-2018), there has been a 0.61% conversion of forest to non-forest land, and a 0.77% conversion of non-forest to forest land (a net increase in forest acres). However, while more forested acres are added each year than are lost, there are small-scale instances of deforestation in the state that impact certain forest ecosystems more than others. One example is in the dry pineland sands ecoregion in the north central portion of the state, a threatened habitat, where native pine forests are being cleared for irrigated agriculture.  As for degradation, recent data indicates that 9% of Minnesota’s forests were disturbed by a variety of impacts, including insects and disease, animal grazing, wildfire, wind, and timber harvest. However, not all of these disturbances necessarily damage the forests in the long-term. For example, all timber harvests that occur on state forest lands are reforested. However, increasing insect damage from native and invasive insects is a growing concern due to human movement of species and due to climate change.",0

It is central to the government’s objectives within the economic strategy and embedded in policy across all key sectors that need to reduce emissions.  Examples of this can be found in Scotland’s renewable energy sector and energy efficiency programmes - supported by our Energy Strategy, within our circular economy and environmental policies and in our approach to sustainable transport where there is a commitment to phase out the need for new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2032.  These are some of the key examples of where Scotland is taking action and positioning itself to reap the economic benefits of the transition to the low carbon economy. Furthermore, fully capturing the opportunities of our just transition to net zero means creating green jobs, developing sustainable skills and nurturing wellbeing. The Scottish Government’s approach is designed to increase the number of good, green jobs, and to enable people to access these jobs through training and reskilling. The £100m Green Jobs Fund will help to deliver this and the Climate emergency Skills Action Plan will help to further align the skills system with the demand resulting from a green recovery and the transition to net zero, The Scottish Government is also committed to responding to the climate emergency in a way that aligns with our ambitions of transitioning towards a wellbeing economy. For example, we have set out our 20 Minute Neighbourhood ambition – a place where people can live well locally and meet their daily needs within a 20 minute walk, wheel or cycle from their home - that will support the delivery of a number of Scottish Government priorities such as net zero, housing, place and town centres, resilient communities, wellbeing economy and better, greener places.

This network provides support for this technology, while helping to initiate, and providing expert guidance to, cooperation projects including the current competition “NRW Model Municipality/Region Hydrogen Mobility”. To date, the state and the EU (European Regional Development Fund – ERDF) have provided almost 150 million euros for over 130 projects relating to fuel-cell and hydrogen technology. In addition, further projects in NRW have received funding from the National Innovation Programme (NIP) and the European FCH JU programme as part of Horizon 2020. The range of project topics extends from the development of individual system components such as compressors and sensors to the development and testing of complex products such as buses or refuelling stations. In the field of battery-electric mobility, around 110 projects in almost 60 cities have been launched under the programmes of the German Ministry of Transport since 2009. These projects have received expert guidance and financial backing totalling around 80 million euros. Support has also been provided for the integration of renewable energies into the transport sector, the use of electric vehicles in commercial and municipal fleets and the development of business models.

+Please complete the table below.,"Minnesota benefits from more freshwater than any other of the 48 contiguous U.S. States. The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota. For example, a drought in 2012 led the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restrict navigation on the lower Mississippi River, which affected shipping upstream.",0

This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows.

One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.)  The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy.  It aims to increase SME capability in low carbon technical innovation and makes it easier for SMEs and universities to connect through the Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN). KEN, supported by Scottish Government and the Enterprise Agencies, offers Scottish SMEs access to resources including project funding to work with Scottish universities on low-carbon innovation projects.See also text below on Scottish Water and Scottish Forestry.",0

According to FIA data from the most current cycle (2013-2018), there has been a 0.61% conversion of forest to non-forest land, and a 0.77% conversion of non-forest to forest land (a net increase in forest acres). However, while more forested acres are added each year than are lost, there are small-scale instances of deforestation in the state that impact certain forest ecosystems more than others. One example is in the dry pineland sands ecoregion in the north central portion of the state, a threatened habitat, where native pine forests are being cleared for irrigated agriculture.  As for degradation, recent data indicates that 9% of Minnesota’s forests were disturbed by a variety of impacts, including insects and disease, animal grazing, wildfire, wind, and timber harvest. However, not all of these disturbances necessarily damage the forests in the long-term. For example, all timber harvests that occur on state forest lands are reforested. However, increasing insect damage from native and invasive insects is a growing concern due to human movement of species and due to climate change.",0

In 2019, renewable power was generated in NRW by around 280,000 PV systems with an installed capacity of almost 5,300 MW. The costs of generating solar power through roof systems are now lower than the grid purchase prices, which means that own consumption of solar power is becoming increasingly important, not only ecologically but also economically. Ground-mounted PV systems, which in NRW are permitted along infrastructure routes and on conversion sites, can also make an important contribution to the power supply with their low production costs. (www.energieagentur.nrw/solarenergie)A new map was published in the Energieatlas NRW (Energy Atlas NRW) in November 2018: the state-wide Solar Roof Register NRW. On the approximately eleven million roofs in NRW there lies great potential for generating power from solar energy using photovoltaics: around 68 terawatt hours of electricity could be produced per year. It is now possible for every homeowner in NRW to find out with a simple click whether and to what extent their roof surface is suitable for solar energy (both photovoltaics and solar thermal energy). An integrated solar calculator calculates the economic efficiency of a possible solar system on the basis of roof shape and inclination and according to individual settings such as power consumption, load profile, storage system, etc., and can serve as a basis for planning.

Many federalstates in Germany do already have climate change targets, but there is no uniform approach. In major climate-relevant areas of regulation, the legislative competence is federal. Responsibility of the Länder is limited to the energy industry, roadtransport and air pollution. Thus, states can regulate on building codes as well as local and state planning.

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",0

The MAWQCP is a voluntary opportunity for farmers and agricultural landowners to take the lead in implementing conservation practices that protect our water.MAWQCP certification is a process of assessing every parcel and every crop grown on it for any risks posed to water quality, physical or managerial, on a whole-farm basis. Those who treat all risks will be certified and in turn obtain regulatory certainty for a period of ten years.To obtain certification, growers work directly with accredited agronomy and conservation professionals one-on-one to assess their entire operations and develop treatments for water quality risks. The certification process functions to ensure the physical factors and management choices on every parcel and crop scenario are addressing water quality protection and improvement, which results in hands-on education exploring all applicable options and methods for integrating and adopting sustainable practices in all aspects of farm management and in response to whatever landscape conditions are present. Further, producers seeking certification can obtain specially designated financial assistance to implement practices that address whatever risks exist. Through this program, the public receives assurance that certified producers are directly intervening on site-specific conditions to protect Minnesota's lakes, rivers and streams.Nitrogen Fertilizer Management Plan (NFMP.

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles. Light-duty truck numbers have been steadily increasing and now outnumber smaller passenger cars. The resulting emissions increase from these vehicles offsets other reductions from passenger cars, aviation, and natural gas transmission.For the first time, carbon sequestered in forest regrowth was included in the inventory in the agriculture sector.

This means that our response to the climate emergency must be the result of widespread collaboration not only across government but the rest of society. Climate Change PlanTo account for our latest emissions reduction targets within the 2019 Act, the Scottish Government has committed to updating its current Climate Chance Plan. The updated Plan will now be laid before the Scottish Parliament in late 2020 for scrutiny; it will be recast to focus on a green recovery from Covid-19. The updated Plan will draw on the best available evidence to set out clear emissions reduction pathways across the majority of the action areas set out in this table. These include; transport; energy; industry; buildings; waste; agriculture; and land use and forestry - all with the common goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045. Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2)•	In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation.Other Key Action AreasOut with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places.  National Performance FrameworkThe Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations. All of these collective actions can help us to achieve our vision of a sustainable, inclusive, wellbeing economy.",0

However, while more forested acres are added each year than are lost, there are small-scale instances of deforestation in the state that impact certain forest ecosystems more than others. One example is in the dry pineland sands ecoregion in the north central portion of the state, a threatened habitat, where native pine forests are being cleared for irrigated agriculture.  As for degradation, recent data indicates that 9% of Minnesota’s forests were disturbed by a variety of impacts, including insects and disease, animal grazing, wildfire, wind, and timber harvest.

Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests. At 2019, detailed studies have been initiated to analyze the causes of deforestation in the territory as well as to measure the financing gaps of the measures to be adopted.",0

For example, before laying a draft statutory instrument containing an order setting a carbon budget, the UK Government must take into account any representations made by the Scottish Government.  The UK Act also establishes the Climate Change Committee to provide independent advice about reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change.  The Climate Change Committee is jointly sponsored by the UK Government and devolved administrations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland who work together to appoint members of the Committee and agree the Committee’s work programme.While Scotland has its own climate change legislation, and can use devolved powers in a number of areas to reduce  emissions, substantial levers are controlled by the UK Government including parts of the fiscal system, decarbonisation of the gas and electricity grid, and development of hydrogen capacity.  Policies and proposals where competence is not wholly devolved are informed by regular discussions between the Scottish and UK Governments.The Scottish Government also works with the UK Government to share best practice and research on climate change, and contributes to UK Government reports on climate change as appropriate. Despite progress in Scotland, the scale of the challenge in reducing emissions means that we also need urgent action in areas reserved to the UK Government to unlock further action in Scotland. The Climate Change Plan update contains our full list of UK Government asks and these include changes to parts of the fiscal system, decarbonisation of the gas and electricity grid, the development of hydrogen capacity, further investment in carbon capture and storage and further incentive mechanisms for renewable electricity deployment (e.g. CfD). There are also key areas where we need to drive demand, where collaboration across a UK market would help to capture the opportunities from the transition, such as in heat decarbonisation, industrial decarbonisation, zero emission vehicles and green finance.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water.  As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation.

The Act is implemented by the DNR through a number of agency policies, guidelines, etc., which are developed across multiple disciplines and build robust direction and understanding of sound and sustainable forest management. Such policies address issues such as maintaining old growth forests, implementing site-level forest management guidelines, addressing invasive species, creating and implementing forest management plans, creating and maintain wildlife habitat, protecting rare species, and many more. The MN DNR is also responsible for implementing other regional laws on forest management.  The Little Shipstead-Newton-Nolan Act (MN Stat. 103G.545), which protects water levels and lakeshores by prohibiting dams and restricting logging within 400 feet of recreational waterways in the state-owned lands in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The Minnesota Endangered Species Act ((MN Stat 84.0895) imposes a variety of restrictions, a permit program, and several exemptions pertaining to species designated as endangered or threatened. A person may not take, import, transport, or sell any portion of an endangered or threatened species. However, these acts may be allowed by permit issued by the DNR; plants on certain agricultural lands and plants destroyed in consequence of certain agricultural practices are exempt; and the accidental, unknowing destruction of designated plants is exempt. The Minnesota Trust Fund Statute (MN Stat. 127A.31) includes the goal of the permanent school fund, which is to secure the maximum long-term economic return from the school trust lands consistent with the fiduciary responsibilities imposed by the trust relationship established in the Minnesota Constitution, with sound natural resource conservation and management principles, and with other specific policy provided in state law. The Outdoor Recreation Act of 1975 (MN Stat. 86A.02) addresses State Trails, Scientific and Natural Areas, State Wilderness Areas, State Forests, Wildlife Management Areas, and Aquatic Management Areas.The DNR is responsible for managing most of the state-administered/owned forested lands in the state, and also participates in private forest landowner outreach and multi-stakeholder forest landscape initiatives and partnerships. The DNR has a detailed forest policy framework for the management of state forest lands to prevent deforestation and degradation on these lands as much as possible and to govern sustainable management of state forests.

It has a wide range of policies to support sustainable farming practices including those which can increase carbon sequestration on agricultural land. Scottish Government has committed to explore how best to increase planting of trees and hedgerows which optimise carbon sequestration, the feasibility of payment for carbon sequestration taking into account any existing schemes such as the woodland carbon code as a means of encouraging the uptake of carbon sequestration on farms and options for land-use change to optimise uses beyond traditional farming and food production to multi-faceted land.A new demonstrator network of farms, crofts and estates across Scotland has been established to raise awareness of the multiple benefits that planting trees can bring to agricultural businesses.Scottish Government have also committed an additional £1.5 million (through the Agricultural Transformation Programme) to further support the integration of small woodlands on farmers and crofts across Scotland which will help to increase the levels of carbon sequestration delivery by our agricultural sector.Scottish Government has also committed to provide further advice for farmers and crofters who wish to retire by providing an opportunity to consider alternative land-uses or alternative agricultural uses.Five sector-specific farmer-led groups were established by the Scottish Government to provide advice and workable proposals on how to transform agriculture to meet Scotland’s climate targets, improve biodiversity and continue producing high quality food. These groups reported in March 2021 and their proposals are being considered by Scottish Government.

The OES created a one-of-a-kind sustainability reporting tool and for the last three years has been tracking state agencies’ progress towards achieving goals outlined in the Executive Order. Last year, OES published a public facing dashboard at www.sustainability.mn.gov to follow State government’s progress towards meeting the sustainability goals and provide transparency in government operations. The dashboard measures progress at both the State and agency-specific level. To date, Minnesota’s State Agencies have achieved 84% progress towards goal. Reductions in GHG emissions in state government operations is largely due to the decarbonization of the electricity grid and long-term reductions in energy use in state facilities e.g. Minnesota State Capitol Complex.  In 2019, GHG emissions from state operations again increased with the largest driver being from fossil fuel consumed in the state fleet, particularly in the medium sized vehicles. Colder weather reduced miles per gallon and more snowfall required additional snow removal. Emission factors for delivered energies like electricity and district energy also did not improve last year.The OES is only tracking GHG emissions from the 24-cabinet level state agencies.  Data does not include legislative or judicial branches, boards and commissions, tribal governments, or local units of government.",0

To our knowledge, the Scottish Government is the only government that is held to account by its legislature in each and every year. The 2009 Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The CCC is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation.In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill, which increases the ambition of the targets in the 2009 Act. Following advice from the CCC in May 2019, the Scottish Government responded immediately with amendments to the Climate Change Bill to set a 2045 target for net-zero emissions of all greenhouse gases and increase the targets for 2030 and 2040.

+Please provide a brief description of your region's approach to governing and managing its freshwater resources.,"The Scottish Government has established a clear policy and legislative framework to enable a balance to be struck between protecting public water supplies, the water environment and other users during periods of prolonged dry weather.The Water Environment (Controlled Activities) (Scotland) Regulations 2011 apply regulatory controls over activities, such as abstractions, that may affect Scotland’s water environment. This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",1

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles. Light-duty truck numbers have been steadily increasing and now outnumber smaller passenger cars.

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles. Light-duty truck numbers have been steadily increasing and now outnumber smaller passenger cars. The resulting emissions increase from these vehicles offsets other reductions from passenger cars, aviation, and natural gas transmission.For the first time, carbon sequestered in forest regrowth was included in the inventory in the agriculture sector.

In addition to data on the efficiency of the two systems, the online portal also provides information on hydrogeologically critical areas that require particular attention to be paid to the selection of drilling techniques and the proper operation of installations in order to protect the groundwater. Access to the professional version of the portal gives specialists such as drilling contractors, architects and planners access to over 30,000 bore logs.

These goals were established after extensive review of existing statutes and other goals and objectives outlined for the 24-cabinet-level state agencies.  The GHG goal of 30% reduction by 2025 relative to a 2005 calculated baseline mirrored goals outlined in the 2007 Next Generation Energy Act.The Executive Order also established the Office of Enterprise Sustainability (OES) to assist the 24-cabinet level state agencies in achieving their sustainability goals. The OES created a one-of-a-kind sustainability reporting tool and for the last three years has been tracking state agencies’ progress towards achieving goals outlined in the Executive Order. Last year, OES published a public facing dashboard at www.sustainability.mn.gov to follow State government’s progress towards meeting the sustainability goals and provide transparency in government operations. The dashboard measures progress at both the State and agency-specific level. To date, Minnesota’s State Agencies have achieved 84% progress towards goal. Reductions in GHG emissions in state government operations is largely due to the decarbonization of the electricity grid and long-term reductions in energy use in state facilities e.g. Minnesota State Capitol Complex.  In 2019, GHG emissions from state operations again increased with the largest driver being from fossil fuel consumed in the state fleet, particularly in the medium sized vehicles. Colder weather reduced miles per gallon and more snowfall required additional snow removal. Emission factors for delivered energies like electricity and district energy also did not improve last year.The OES is only tracking GHG emissions from the 24-cabinet level state agencies.

NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW. This applies to both ground collectors laid flat and geothermal probes up to 100 metres deep. (www.geothermie.nrw.de)",0

Governor Peggy Flanagan have set a bold vision to reduce Minnesota’s carbon footprint and aid out an ambitious plan to bring our energy sector fully carbon neutral by 2050. In April 2019, Governor Tim Walz signed Executive Order 19-27 reaffirming the State of Minnesota’s goals to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as, to reduce waste, energy and fuel consumption, water usage and the sustainable procurement of goods and services in government operations. These goals were established after extensive review of existing statutes and other goals and objectives outlined for the 24-cabinet-level state agencies.  The GHG goal of 30% reduction by 2025 relative to a 2005 calculated baseline mirrored goals outlined in the 2007 Next Generation Energy Act.The Executive Order also established the Office of Enterprise Sustainability (OES) to assist the 24-cabinet level state agencies in achieving their sustainability goals. The OES created a one-of-a-kind sustainability reporting tool and for the last three years has been tracking state agencies’ progress towards achieving goals outlined in the Executive Order. Last year, OES published a public facing dashboard at www.sustainability.mn.gov to follow State government’s progress towards meeting the sustainability goals and provide transparency in government operations. The dashboard measures progress at both the State and agency-specific level. To date, Minnesota’s State Agencies have achieved 84% progress towards goal. Reductions in GHG emissions in state government operations is largely due to the decarbonization of the electricity grid and long-term reductions in energy use in state facilities e.g. Minnesota State Capitol Complex.  In 2019, GHG emissions from state operations again increased with the largest driver being from fossil fuel consumed in the state fleet, particularly in the medium sized vehicles. Colder weather reduced miles per gallon and more snowfall required additional snow removal. Emission factors for delivered energies like electricity and district energy also did not improve last year.The OES is only tracking GHG emissions from the 24-cabinet level state agencies.

Scottish Enterprise, for example, helps Scottish organisations innovate at home and export their solutions internationally, securing early-mover advantage; helps to create the jobs and businesses of the future, and supporting existing businesses and organisations to become more resilient in transitioning to a net zero world; and ensures that we achieve an inclusive and ‘just transition’ that improves the opportunities, life chances and wellbeing of everyone in Scotland. The Scottish National Investment Bank supports a low carbon transition, delivering a £3 billion green investment portfolio. The Scottish Government and its enterprise and skills agencies have supported a network of industry leadership groups, accelerators and innovation centres for many years. Their role in the context of climate change is to bring together industry partners to provide leadership in addressing priorities in meeting Scotland’s climate change ambitions and targets. The Scottish Energy Advisory Board, for example, includes a series of industry leadership and supply chain groups drawn from across the wider spectrum of low carbon opportunities. Beyond energy, there are similar leadership engagement structures in Zero Emission Sustainability Mobility (Michelin Scotland Innovation Parc), Water (Hydro Nation) and the Construction Scotland Innovation Centre amongst others. The input from these groups helps inform the development of Scottish Government policy, reflected in the energy strategy and updated climate change plan. The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years. This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence. The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park. In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology. There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes. One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.) The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy. It aims to increase SME capability in low carbon technical innovation and makes it easier for SMEs and universities to connect through the Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN).

The decommissioning of hard coal blocks, the transfer of lignite blocks into safety readiness as well as a significantly lower utilization of some other coal-fired power plants reduce the emissions of the energy industry in 2018 by about 8 million t CO2eq or 6% compared to the previous year.  Furthermore, major emission reductions of 12% can be found in other sectors as residential and commercial/institutional due to lower energy use, higher power efficiency and favourable weather conditions. Despite an increase in licensed vehicles in NRW GHG emissions in the transport sector decreased by 3% compared to the last emission inventory as a result of engine-engineering improvements.Overall, for NRW, emissions for 2018 amount to 261 million t CO2eq, a reduction of about 14 million t CO2eq or 5% compared to 2017.",1

At the same time, the industrial sector accounts for around 19 percent of North Rhine-Westphalia's greenhouse gas emissions. He thus bears a special responsibility in climate protection.Against the background of the Paris Climate Agreement, the industry - as well as the other sectors - has to be for the most part greenhouse gas neutral by 2050. This means, in part, fundamentally changing production processes, switching to renewable energies or continuing to use CO2 as a raw material, for example in the form of products or synthetic fuels. The use of hydrogen also plays a central role.For the concrete establishment of a greenhouse gas-neutral industry considerable research efforts are still necessary. It also requires a suitable infrastructure and necessary framework conditions that make such development processes economically and socially representable. In order to tackle these tasks together with industrial partners and scientific partners, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Innovation, Digitization and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia has launched the initiative IN4climate.NRW.As part of IN4climate.NRW, solutions and strategies for a greenhouse gas-neutral industry are being developed with the aim of supporting the industrial location of NRW while maintaining its competitiveness in a future that is neutral for the GHG.More at www.in4climate.nrw",0

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Transport sector.,"Increasing temperatures impact Minnesota’s agricultural industry since agriculture is highly dependent on specific climate conditions. As a result of increasing temperature, crop production areas may shift to new regions of the state where the temperature range for growth and yield of those crops is optimal unless new climate adapted varieties are developed and utilized. According to the National Climate Assessment, the Midwest growing season has lengthened by almost two weeks since 1950 due in large part to earlier timing of the last spring freeze. This trend is expected to continue. While a longer growing season may increase total crop production, other climate changes, such as increased crop losses and soil erosion from more frequent and intense storms, and increases in pests and invasive species, could outweigh this benefit. There may also be higher livestock losses during periods of extreme heat and humidity. Losses of livestock from extreme heat lead to a challenge in disposal of animal carcasses. In an attempt to adapt to increased temperatures, livestock areas in Minnesota may shift farther north. As a result of new livestock areas and the resulting manure production, farmers may transition to manure-based fertilizer applications in areas where traditionally only commercial fertilizers have been used, with accompanying environmental advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, extreme heat can cause roads to buckle and damage other transportation infrastructure such as rail lines. This may increase expenditures for repairs, dangerous conditions for drivers, and potential for travel disruption.Flash flooding from extreme precipitation can damage the built environment, affecting commercial and residential buildings, roads, parks, and stormwater infrastructure.

Please explain how.","Although the states unlike the federal government do only in a few areas of climatechange have a direct legislative competence, are provided with adequate competence regarding legal action for climate protection. These exist primarily in the area of administrative action e.g. in the allocation of financial grants. Targets for greenhouse gas reduction are necessary for the states to implement the targeted climate protection measures. Many federalstates in Germany do already have climate change targets, but there is no uniform approach. In major climate-relevant areas of regulation, the legislative competence is federal. Responsibility of the Länder is limited to the energy industry, roadtransport and air pollution. Thus, states can regulate on building codes as well as local and state planning. Some states have also enacted their own climate protection laws. Moreover, states have the opportunity to contribute to the reduction of federallegislation through the Federal Council. The Federal Council may introduce their own bills in the Parliament. There are basically laws requiring approval and laws that do not. In the first case the Federal Council has to agree before the law comesinto force. This accounts for all laws that have an impact on the finances of the states. In contrast, most laws are non-approval, where the Federal Council can only appeal.",1

Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

+Please identify the risks to your region’s water supply as well as the timescale and level of risk.,"Minnesota benefits from more freshwater than any other of the 48 contiguous U.S. States. The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota.

Climate change is a powerful risk amplifier, especially in regards to health. Climate change will disproportionately impact many of the communities that already experience health inequities, or systemic difference in health status that are preventable and unfair.  Across Minnesota, inequities in living conditions, wealth, power, and health place low-income communities, people without access to protective measures like air conditioning or reliable transportation, and some communities of color at greater risk of experiencing the negative health impacts of climate change.

Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Energy sector.,"Combined heat and power generation (CHP) is a classic sector coupling technology that combines electricity and heat generation extremely efficiently, thus contributing to the flexibility of these two sectors. CHP is characterised by a particularly high degree of fuel efficiency. CO2 emissions are significantly reduced compared to the separate generation of electricity and heat. Although CHP is already used in many fields, it still has a great deal of potential that has yet to be fully tapped. The NRW state government also emphasises the importance of CHP as an essential element of the energy transition programme in its energy supply strategy and will continue to drive forward the expansion of CHP. To analyse the potential existing in NRW, the state government, with the support of EnergieAgentur.NRW, has commissioned a new CHP potential study for NRW, with the aim of driving forward the expansion of CHP strategically.A further key element of the NRW energy supply strategy is grid-bound heat supply. In addition to the construction of local heating networks, the Rhine-Ruhr district heating line (FWSRR) will be the largest district heating network in the EU. By connecting the existing district heating lines in the Lower Rhine and Ruhr regions, the FWSRR makes a significant contribution to the CO2 and CHP targets of the state of NRW. In addition to CHP, industrial waste heat is going to be increasingly used as a source for district heating networks in NRW in future. On behalf of the state government, the State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has analysed the state-wide potential and is presenting this in the Industrial Waste Heat Potential Study NRW. The study shows that through consistent use of waste heat from industrial energy and production processes, up to 48 terawatt hours (TWh) of usable heat for heating purposes and production processes could be replaced annually. To expand the efficient supply of energy, the state government provides a support programme in the form of progres.nrw (Progress NRW). Among other things, this promotes the construction, expansion and conversion of heating networks and investment in district heating connections.   (www.kwk-für-nrw.de)",1

The state government is developing strategies and concepts to avoid, reduce and, if necessary, offset emissions from the administration. In addition to the topic of buildings, this also concerns the expansion of renewable energies on state-owned properties, the reduction of CO2 emissions in the vehicle fleet and business trips, climate-neutral procurement, the implementation of climate-neutral events and the sensitization of employees. Since 2016, the state administration of North Rhine-Westphalia has been providing electricity for the buildings (excluding universities), which is 100 percent renewable. This enabled it to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 200,000 tonnes annually. In addition to the previous years, the state administration also saved around € 8 million annually in electricity costs through the central procurement of the construction and real estate business NRW from renewable electricity.

However, while more forested acres are added each year than are lost, there are small-scale instances of deforestation in the state that impact certain forest ecosystems more than others. One example is in the dry pineland sands ecoregion in the north central portion of the state, a threatened habitat, where native pine forests are being cleared for irrigated agriculture.  As for degradation, recent data indicates that 9% of Minnesota’s forests were disturbed by a variety of impacts, including insects and disease, animal grazing, wildfire, wind, and timber harvest. However, not all of these disturbances necessarily damage the forests in the long-term. For example, all timber harvests that occur on state forest lands are reforested.

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles.

+Please describe these current and/or anticipated impacts of climate change.,"It is difficult to give one reason for changing emission trends.GHG emissions from electricity generation have been generally declining, but increased compared to the 2012 inventory, which included the temporary shutdown of a major coal-fired electricity producer.GHG emissions from the industrial sector have increased since 2005, mostly due to the increasing use of low-cost natural gas. In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2016 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,611 hectares, 0.35% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2016 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests.",0

Three to four percentage points will be added to the safety reserve by 2019 simply by transferring five power plant units.By 2050, further efforts are needed to achieve the goal of 80 percent savings.

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles.

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",0

This means that our response to the climate emergency must be the result of widespread collaboration not only across government but the rest of society. Climate Change PlanTo account for our latest emissions reduction targets within the 2019 Act, the Scottish Government has committed to updating its current Climate Chance Plan. The updated Plan will now be laid before the Scottish Parliament in late 2020 for scrutiny; it will be recast to focus on a green recovery from Covid-19. The updated Plan will draw on the best available evidence to set out clear emissions reduction pathways across the majority of the action areas set out in this table. These include; transport; energy; industry; buildings; waste; agriculture; and land use and forestry - all with the common goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045. Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2)•	In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation.Other Key Action AreasOut with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places.  National Performance FrameworkThe Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota.

It has a wide range of policies to support sustainable farming practices including those which can increase carbon sequestration on agricultural land. Scottish Government has committed to explore how best to increase planting of trees and hedgerows which optimise carbon sequestration, the feasibility of payment for carbon sequestration taking into account any existing schemes such as the woodland carbon code as a means of encouraging the uptake of carbon sequestration on farms and options for land-use change to optimise uses beyond traditional farming and food production to multi-faceted land.A new demonstrator network of farms, crofts and estates across Scotland has been established to raise awareness of the multiple benefits that planting trees can bring to agricultural businesses.Scottish Government have also committed an additional £1.5 million (through the Agricultural Transformation Programme) to further support the integration of small woodlands on farmers and crofts across Scotland which will help to increase the levels of carbon sequestration delivery by our agricultural sector.Scottish Government has also committed to provide further advice for farmers and crofters who wish to retire by providing an opportunity to consider alternative land-uses or alternative agricultural uses.Five sector-specific farmer-led groups were established by the Scottish Government to provide advice and workable proposals on how to transform agriculture to meet Scotland’s climate targets, improve biodiversity and continue producing high quality food. These groups reported in March 2021 and their proposals are being considered by Scottish Government. By taking a co-development approach, the Scottish Government is putting a just transition at the heart of agricultural transformation.More info: UC Davis - http://asi.ucdavis.edu/programs/sarep/about/what-is-sustainable-agriculture IIED - https://www.iied.org/five-ways-make-farming-more-sustainable",0

Minnesota has experienced 15 'mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota.

Consistent reductions have been achieved in heat-related CO2 emissions – and thus also energy costs – of the climate protection housing estates in both new-build and renovated housing. This exemplary project, which has for the first time introduced CO2 limits and a corresponding verification procedure for buildings, is being coordinated by EnergyAgency.NRW.Following an audit by a committee of experts, a total of 87 projects were awarded the status of “NRW climate protection housing estate”. The 38 housing estates already completed have 6,000 residents and demonstrate that consistent and sustainable planning can facilitate the implementation of ambitious projects for energy-efficient construction and renovation.

In some cases, natural gas replaced other fossil fuels, but more energy overall is being used in the industrial sector. Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles. Light-duty truck numbers have been steadily increasing and now outnumber smaller passenger cars. The resulting emissions increase from these vehicles offsets other reductions from passenger cars, aviation, and natural gas transmission.For the first time, carbon sequestered in forest regrowth was included in the inventory in the agriculture sector.

This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

The Scottish Government is investing £300,000 in a new hydrogen accelerator which will be located at the University of St Andrews. Drawing on the expertise of the University, and in partnership with institutions across Scotland, the new initiative will propel innovations in hydrogen technology and encourage knowledge-sharing to support transport applications and sustainable mobility. This project directly supports the Scottish Government’s world-leading commitment to its net-zero target of 2045. Additionally, the work of the hydrogen accelerator will also support the ambition of phasing out the need for new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2032. The Scottish Government has provided funding of £6.5m over the past few years to support the introduction of Hydrogen Buses in the City of Aberdeen – the current fleet of 10 hydrogen buses have collectively covered 1 million miles. Fifteen new buses are procured and arriving this year (2020) and a further 10 buses are being considered as part of the Scottish Government’s £62m Energy Transition Fund launched in June 2020. The Scottish Government are developing a bioenergy action plan that will set out a clearer scope for the role of biofuels in Scotland.

+"Please indicate if your region-wide emissions have increased, decreased, or stayed the same since your last emissions inventory, and please describe why.","Tackling climate change and progressing the low carbon transition is integral to Scotland’s sustainable economic development.  It is central to the government’s objectives within the economic strategy and embedded in policy across all key sectors that need to reduce emissions.  Examples of this can be found in Scotland’s renewable energy sector and energy efficiency programmes - supported by our Energy Strategy, within our circular economy and environmental policies and in our approach to sustainable transport where there is a commitment to phase out the need for new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2032.  These are some of the key examples of where Scotland is taking action and positioning itself to reap the economic benefits of the transition to the low carbon economy. Furthermore, fully capturing the opportunities of our just transition to net zero means creating green jobs, developing sustainable skills and nurturing wellbeing. The Scottish Government’s approach is designed to increase the number of good, green jobs, and to enable people to access these jobs through training and reskilling. The £100m Green Jobs Fund will help to deliver this and the Climate emergency Skills Action Plan will help to further align the skills system with the demand resulting from a green recovery and the transition to net zero, The Scottish Government is also committed to responding to the climate emergency in a way that aligns with our ambitions of transitioning towards a wellbeing economy. For example, we have set out our 20 Minute Neighbourhood ambition – a place where people can live well locally and meet their daily needs within a 20 minute walk, wheel or cycle from their home - that will support the delivery of a number of Scottish Government priorities such as net zero, housing, place and town centres, resilient communities, wellbeing economy and better, greener places. The upcoming National Planning Framework 4 will set out priorities on planning our places in a way that reduces the need to travel to services and amenities. Creating more space for people to work remotely, building more homes at the heart of communities and creating community hubs around anchor collaborations, together with strengthening our support for repurposing buildings and assets, will help to deliver local green growth and development opportunities.",0

As an interdisciplinary sector with links to key industries like machine engineering and the electrical industry, it plays a central role in the economic development of North Rhine-Westphalia. In 2016, the North Rhine-Westphalia green economy boasted a work force of around 368,000. Its share of overall employment is 5.1%, which is higher than any other key sector in the state. With a turnover of 66.3 billion euros, the green economy contributed around 6.2% to North Rhine-Westphalia’s gross value added and has developed into a significant and integrated component of the state’s economic structure. The featured themes of the green economy encompass sustainable farming and forest management, classic sectors such as sewage and waste disposal and pollution monitoring, mitigation and restoration technologies, as well as new topics like green mobility and renewable energy. Against this background, the green economy can also be seen as a sector of transformation, tackling the greatest challenges of our time – climate change, urbanisation, resource efficiency, decarbonisation – with new ideas, innovative technologies and state-of-the-art services. For established key industries, such as machine engineering and the electrical industry, the green economy has an integrating effect; it combines and channels skills and innovations with prospects for sustainable growth. North Rhine-Westphalia has intentionally developed its economic prospects as the largest provider of green economy products and services in Germany. An annual average turnover growth of 1% (2010–2015) and an annual growth in gross value added of 3.4% (2010–2015) paint a glowing picture.

To our knowledge, the Scottish Government is the only government that is held to account by its legislature in each and every year. The Climate Change (Scotland) Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The Committee on Climate Change (the CCC) is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation. The Scottish Government will continue to lead work to support the delivery and achievement of the world-leading Scottish climate change targets. In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill that will set a 2050 target of 90% emissions reductions in response to the Paris Agreement.

Minnesota has experienced 15 mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communities more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows.

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",0

NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy.

Minnesota has become measurably warmer, particularly in the last few decades, and precipitation patterns have become more erratic, including heavier rainfall events. Climate projections for the state indicate that these trends are likely to continue well into the current century and may worsen, according to some scenarios. Climate change will impact all Minnesotans, because it threatens the very basics we depend on for life-our air, food, water, shelter and security-but it will some Minnesotans more than others. Climate change is a powerful risk amplifier, especially in regards to health. Climate change will disproportionately impact many of the communities that already experience health inequities, or systemic difference in health status that are preventable and unfair.  Across Minnesota, inequities in living conditions, wealth, power, and health place low-income communities, people without access to protective measures like air conditioning or reliable transportation, and some communities of color at greater risk of experiencing the negative health impacts of climate change. In order for our communities to be strong and resilient in the face of climate change, the focus must be on reducing health inequities.

The 2009 Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The CCC is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation.In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill, which increases the ambition of the targets in the 2009 Act. Following advice from the CCC in May 2019, the Scottish Government responded immediately with amendments to the Climate Change Bill to set a 2045 target for net-zero emissions of all greenhouse gases and increase the targets for 2030 and 2040.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2016 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,611 hectares, 0.35% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2016 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector.

The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas.

The Energy-efficient and Solar Construction Network pursues a project-oriented approach, which primarily involves the initiation and dissemination of best practice projects. In the network, innovation transfer and information transfer take place, among other things, via the network meetings, where innovative technologies and concrete project results are presented and the exchange of experience between multipliers in the building sector is supported.(www.energieagentur.nrw/netzwerk/energieeffizientes-und-solares-bauen)With the aim of implementing climate protection measures not only in building planning, but also at urban development level, the project “100 Climate Protection Housing Estates in North Rhine-Westphalia” was developed as part of the network activity. In the climate protection housing estates, the heat-related CO2 emissions in residential estates (new construction and refurbishment) and thus also the energy costs are consistently reduced. EnergieAgentur.NRW is coordinating this exemplary project, which for the first time has introduced CO2 limits and a corresponding verification procedure for buildings. 96 projects in total have been awarded the status of “NRW Climate Protection Estate” following examination by a commission of experts. Almost 9,000 people live in the 46 settlements that have already been completed, demonstrating that, with consistent and sustainable planning, it is possible to execute demanding energy-efficient construction or refurbishment projects.

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment.

+Please describe these current and/or anticipated impacts of climate change.,"Energy-efficient construction and refurbishment of buildings plays an important role, since one third of the total final energy consumption in Germany is needed for heating rooms and producing hot water in buildings. The Energy-efficient and Solar Construction Network pursues a project-oriented approach, which primarily involves the initiation and dissemination of best practice projects. In the network, innovation transfer and information transfer take place, among other things, via the network meetings, where innovative technologies and concrete project results are presented and the exchange of experience between multipliers in the building sector is supported.(www.energieagentur.nrw/netzwerk/energieeffizientes-und-solares-bauen)With the aim of implementing climate protection measures not only in building planning, but also at urban development level, the project “100 Climate Protection Housing Estates in North Rhine-Westphalia” was developed as part of the network activity. In the climate protection housing estates, the heat-related CO2 emissions in residential estates (new construction and refurbishment) and thus also the energy costs are consistently reduced. EnergieAgentur.NRW is coordinating this exemplary project, which for the first time has introduced CO2 limits and a corresponding verification procedure for buildings. 96 projects in total have been awarded the status of “NRW Climate Protection Estate” following examination by a commission of experts. Almost 9,000 people live in the 46 settlements that have already been completed, demonstrating that, with consistent and sustainable planning, it is possible to execute demanding energy-efficient construction or refurbishment projects. (www.energieagentur.nrw/klimaschutzsiedlungen)The network focuses not only on housing construction but also on non-residential buildings. There is considerable potential to make energy savings and thus reduce CO2 emissions in non-residential buildings such as schools and office buildings in particular. Together with the NRW Ministry of Economic Affairs, EnergieAgentur.NRW therefore launched a project to award prizes to particularly energy-efficient schools and office buildings in early 2019. The aim is to identify exemplary buildings and to draw public attention to these.(www.energieagentur.nrw/gebaeude/energieeffiziente-nichtwohngebaeude)",0

+Please describe these current and/or future risks due to climate change.,"Combined heat and power generation (CHP) is a classic sector coupling technology that combines electricity and heat generation extremely efficiently, thus contributing to the flexibility of these two sectors. CHP is characterised by a particularly high degree of fuel efficiency. CO2 emissions are significantly reduced compared to the separate generation of electricity and heat. Although CHP is already used in many fields, it still has a great deal of potential that has yet to be fully tapped. The NRW state government also emphasises the importance of CHP as an essential element of the energy transition programme in its energy supply strategy and will continue to drive forward the expansion of CHP. To analyse the potential existing in NRW, the state government, with the support of EnergieAgentur.NRW, has commissioned a new CHP potential study for NRW, with the aim of driving forward the expansion of CHP strategically.A further key element of the NRW energy supply strategy is grid-bound heat supply. In addition to the construction of local heating networks, the Rhine-Ruhr district heating line (FWSRR) will be the largest district heating network in the EU. By connecting the existing district heating lines in the Lower Rhine and Ruhr regions, the FWSRR makes a significant contribution to the CO2 and CHP targets of the state of NRW. In addition to CHP, industrial waste heat is going to be increasingly used as a source for district heating networks in NRW in future. On behalf of the state government, the State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has analysed the state-wide potential and is presenting this in the Industrial Waste Heat Potential Study NRW. The study shows that through consistent use of waste heat from industrial energy and production processes, up to 48 terawatt hours (TWh) of usable heat for heating purposes and production processes could be replaced annually. To expand the efficient supply of energy, the state government provides a support programme in the form of progres.nrw (Progress NRW). Among other things, this promotes the construction, expansion and conversion of heating networks and investment in district heating connections.   (www.kwk-für-nrw.de)",0
+Please provide details of your climate actions in the  Land use sector.,"Regional Ordinance 011-2014-GRU / GR approves the 2014-2017 Regional Climate Change Strategy which proposes actions to adapt to changes in climate, giving priority to vulnerable areas and to mitigate the effects of climate change, such as floods and the damage to agricultural products. In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests. At 2019, detailed studies have been initiated to analyze the causes of deforestation in the territory as well as to measure the financing gaps of the measures to be adopted.",0

Under the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009, local authorities and other public bodies in Scotland are under a statutory duty to contribute to Scotland’s national effort on climate mitigation and adaptation and to act sustainably. There is also a statutory duty on all public sector bodies to conserve biodiversity and develop local biodiversity action plans in Scotland. •In November 2019, Cabinet Secretary for the Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform, Roseanna Cunningham MSP announced the creation of a network of Community Climate Action Hubs. The hubs will be spread across Scotland – including an islands hub – and will provide support in their local areas, helping groups to take advantage of community funding opportunities, and promoting collaboration between projects. Our new model for community level action against climate change will reflect on the strength of the community response to COVID-19 and on how communities have pulled together to meet local needs.•The Scottish Government  continues to provide significant funding and support for community climate action which has been found to be a vital means of helping people to explore and adopt low carbon behaviours, and of building local capacity for continued bottom-up change. The Climate Challenge Fund is one example of the government support available to communities across Scotland to take action on climate change and make the move to low carbon living.

Minnesota has experienced 15 'mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

It is central to the government’s objectives within the economic strategy and embedded in policy across all key sectors that need to reduce emissions.  Examples of this can be found in Scotland’s renewable energy sector and energy efficiency programmes - supported by our Energy Strategy, within our circular economy and environmental policies and in our approach to sustainable transport where there is a commitment to phase out the need for new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2032.  These are some of the key examples of where Scotland is taking action and positioning itself to reap the economic benefits of the transition to the low carbon economy. Furthermore, fully capturing the opportunities of our just transition to net zero means creating green jobs, developing sustainable skills and nurturing wellbeing. The Scottish Government’s approach is designed to increase the number of good, green jobs, and to enable people to access these jobs through training and reskilling. The £100m Green Jobs Fund will help to deliver this and the Climate emergency Skills Action Plan will help to further align the skills system with the demand resulting from a green recovery and the transition to net zero, The Scottish Government is also committed to responding to the climate emergency in a way that aligns with our ambitions of transitioning towards a wellbeing economy. For example, we have set out our 20 Minute Neighbourhood ambition – a place where people can live well locally and meet their daily needs within a 20 minute walk, wheel or cycle from their home - that will support the delivery of a number of Scottish Government priorities such as net zero, housing, place and town centres, resilient communities, wellbeing economy and better, greener places. The upcoming National Planning Framework 4 will set out priorities on planning our places in a way that reduces the need to travel to services and amenities.

For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places.  National Performance FrameworkThe Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations. All of these collective actions can help us to achieve our vision of a sustainable, inclusive, wellbeing economy.",0

Minnesota has experienced 15 'mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

CHP is characterised by a particularly high degree of fuel efficiency. CO2 emissions are significantly reduced compared to the separate generation of electricity and heat. Although CHP is already used in many fields, it still has a great deal of potential that has yet to be fully tapped. The NRW state government also emphasises the importance of CHP as an essential element of the energy transition programme in its energy supply strategy and will continue to drive forward the expansion of CHP. To analyse the potential existing in NRW, the state government, with the support of EnergieAgentur.NRW, has commissioned a new CHP potential study for NRW, with the aim of driving forward the expansion of CHP strategically.A further key element of the NRW energy supply strategy is grid-bound heat supply. In addition to the construction of local heating networks, the Rhine-Ruhr district heating line (FWSRR) will be the largest district heating network in the EU. By connecting the existing district heating lines in the Lower Rhine and Ruhr regions, the FWSRR makes a significant contribution to the CO2 and CHP targets of the state of NRW. In addition to CHP, industrial waste heat is going to be increasingly used as a source for district heating networks in NRW in future. On behalf of the state government, the State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has analysed the state-wide potential and is presenting this in the Industrial Waste Heat Potential Study NRW. The study shows that through consistent use of waste heat from industrial energy and production processes, up to 48 terawatt hours (TWh) of usable heat for heating purposes and production processes could be replaced annually. To expand the efficient supply of energy, the state government provides a support programme in the form of progres.nrw (Progress NRW). Among other things, this promotes the construction, expansion and conversion of heating networks and investment in district heating connections.   (www.kwk-für-nrw.de)",0

Minnesota has experienced 15 'mega-rain events since 1858, with 7 of these events occurring since 2002. This trend of more extreme rainfall events is expected to continue, increasing flooding and erosion, reducing water quality, and affecting transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure. Extreme precipitation events can also contribute to significant public health issues, including physical injuries, destruction of property, mental health issues, disruption of emergency services, and waterborne disease outbreaks. At the same time, flows in many Minnesota rivers and streams have increased, making some systems and communiteis more vulnerable to flooding and contributing to ongoing erosion that affects ecosystems and recreation. These increased flows result from both increased rainfall and human land use. Historic wetland drainage and expansion of artificial drainage networks on agricultural and urban lands contribute to increased stream and river flows. While reversing climate change that contributes to increased occurrence of extreme rainfall will take global action over decades, we should act to implement land use practices that make us more resilient now. Preserving the function of floodplains will protect inland areas. Floodplains can be restored to their natural state or made into public parks.

The costs of generating solar power through roof systems are now lower than the grid purchase prices, which means that own consumption of solar power is becoming increasingly important, not only ecologically but also economically. Ground-mounted PV systems, which in NRW are permitted along infrastructure routes and on conversion sites, can also make an important contribution to the power supply with their low production costs.

In 2016, the North Rhine-Westphalia green economy boasted a work force of around 368,000. Its share of overall employment is 5.1%, which is higher than any other key sector in the state. With a turnover of 66.3 billion euros, the green economy contributed around 6.2% to North Rhine-Westphalia’s gross value added and has developed into a significant and integrated component of the state’s economic structure. The featured themes of the green economy encompass sustainable farming and forest management, classic sectors such as sewage and waste disposal and pollution monitoring, mitigation and restoration technologies, as well as new topics like green mobility and renewable energy. Against this background, the green economy can also be seen as a sector of transformation, tackling the greatest challenges of our time – climate change, urbanisation, resource efficiency, decarbonisation – with new ideas, innovative technologies and state-of-the-art services. For established key industries, such as machine engineering and the electrical industry, the green economy has an integrating effect; it combines and channels skills and innovations with prospects for sustainable growth. North Rhine-Westphalia has intentionally developed its economic prospects as the largest provider of green economy products and services in Germany.

In addition, it points out as a priority to research on aspects related to climate change and the health of the population, study of the fragile ecosystems of the Ucayali Region, among others. This strategy is in the process of being updated.The main factor of deforestation in the jurisdiction is the use and change of land use. The loss of forest in Ucayali had an upward trend until reaching a historical maximum in 2013. In the last 4 years the trend has been decreasing reaching in 2017 a level of deforestation equivalent to 29,905 hectares, 1% lower than the previous year . However, the 2013-2017 annual deforestation average remains high compared to the historical trend. In the period 2001-2016, more than 70 percent of the size of the loss is explained by areas under 5 hectares.Ucayali does not have a jurisdictional strategy to reduce deforestation to date. However, its design is in process. The strategy is being worked by the Regional Government of Ucayali with the technical support of Earth Innovation Institute. Currently, there is a base document called ""Ucayali: Productive Region (2017)"" that establishes three pillars of work. In the productive field, an increase in the productivity of the main commercial crops of Ucayali (oil palm and cocoa) is proposed, as well as an increase in the productive capacity of the aquaculture sector. In the protection factor, the reduction in annual deforestation is established, to advance with the economic ecological macrozonification, the implementation of forest zoning and the establishment of new new protection areas. In the inclusion factor, the use of technology is mentioned to improve the production of small farmers, the titling of native communities and rural properties and the legalization of forest use in local forests.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota. For example, a drought in 2012 led the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restrict navigation on the lower Mississippi River, which affected shipping upstream.",0

This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",0

+Please complete the table below.,"Scotland’s domestic statutory climate change framework is established under the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009 (as amended by the Climate Change (Emissions Reduction Targets) (Scotland) Act 2019), which includes economy-wide emissions reduction targets on a path to reaching net zero emissions of all greenhouse gases by 2045 at the latest. A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations. All of these collective actions can help us to achieve our vision of a sustainable, inclusive, wellbeing economy.",0

+Please identify the substantive risks to your region’s water security as well as the timescale and level of risk.,"The topic of geothermal energy is becoming increasingly important among the energy technologies. NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW.

The Act is implemented by the DNR through a number of agency policies, guidelines, etc., which are developed across multiple disciplines and build robust direction and understanding of sound and sustainable forest management. Such policies address issues such as maintaining old growth forests, implementing site-level forest management guidelines, addressing invasive species, creating and implementing forest management plans, creating and maintain wildlife habitat, protecting rare species, and many more. The MN DNR is also responsible for implementing other regional laws on forest management.  The Little Shipstead-Newton-Nolan Act (MN Stat. 103G.545), which protects water levels and lakeshores by prohibiting dams and restricting logging within 400 feet of recreational waterways in the state-owned lands in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The Minnesota Endangered Species Act ((MN Stat 84.0895) imposes a variety of restrictions, a permit program, and several exemptions pertaining to species designated as endangered or threatened. A person may not take, import, transport, or sell any portion of an endangered or threatened species. However, these acts may be allowed by permit issued by the DNR; plants on certain agricultural lands and plants destroyed in consequence of certain agricultural practices are exempt; and the accidental, unknowing destruction of designated plants is exempt. The Minnesota Trust Fund Statute (MN Stat. 127A.31) includes the goal of the permanent school fund, which is to secure the maximum long-term economic return from the school trust lands consistent with the fiduciary responsibilities imposed by the trust relationship established in the Minnesota Constitution, with sound natural resource conservation and management principles, and with other specific policy provided in state law.

+Please provide details of your climate actions in the Transport sector.,"Scotland’s domestic statutory climate change framework is established under the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009 (as amended by the Climate Change (Emissions Reduction Targets) (Scotland) Act 2019), which includes economy-wide emissions reduction targets on a path to reaching net zero emissions of all greenhouse gases by 2045 at the latest. A strategic delivery plan for meeting emissions reduction targets is required at least every 5 years. . Scotland’s current Climate Change Plan covers actions over the period to 2032, and was updated in December 2020 to reflect both the increased ambition of the targets set in response to the Paris Agreement by the 2019 Climate Change Act, and also the context of a green recovery from COVID-19. The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations. All of these collective actions can help us to achieve our vision of a sustainable, inclusive, wellbeing economy.",0

+Please explain what safeguards are in place to protect your region’s forests in the long-term.,"The Scottish Government has established a clear policy and legislative framework to enable a balance to be struck between protecting public water supplies, the water environment and other users during periods of prolonged dry weather.The Water Environment (Controlled Activities) (Scotland) Regulations 2011 apply regulatory controls over activities, such as abstractions, that may affect Scotland’s water environment. This legislation arose from the European Community Water Framework Directive (WFD) becoming law in Scotland as the Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 (WEWS Act). WFD requires Member States to establish systems for managing their water environments by developing River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs). These provide an assessment of the condition of Scotland's water environment, and identify where efforts for protection and improvement must be targeted.Under the The Water Resources (Scotland) Act 2013 Water orders may be made by Scottish Water where needed to protect public water supplies. A Water Shortage Order may permit Scottish Water to carry out various actions such as to gain access to land to abstract from an alternative source or to impose water saving measures on organisations or individuals if deemed necessary.On behalf of the government the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced and maintains Scotland's National Water Scarcity Plan (https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/219302/scotlands-national-water-scarcity-plan.pdf). The Plan explains how water resources will be managed prior to and during periods of prolonged dry weather. This is to ensure the correct balance is struck between protecting the environment and providing resource for human and economic activity.SEPA will review this plan in conjunction with the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) (https://www.sepa.org.uk/environment/water/river-basin-management-planning/the-current-plans/) and will update it as required as we learn from experience of managing our water resources during periods of prolonged dry weather. The RBMPs also include checks of whether action to address the main pressures on the water environment will also have implications on our ability to better cope with climate change.The measures in the RBMPs will reduce the pressure on water resources during dry periods by improving current pressures on the water environment. The steps set out in the water scarcity plan are in addition to those steps which alone may not be sufficient to protect the environment and key water supplies in prolonged dry periods.",0

In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns.

The updated Plan will now be laid before the Scottish Parliament in late 2020 for scrutiny; it will be recast to focus on a green recovery from Covid-19. The updated Plan will draw on the best available evidence to set out clear emissions reduction pathways across the majority of the action areas set out in this table. These include; transport; energy; industry; buildings; waste; agriculture; and land use and forestry - all with the common goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045. Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2)•	In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation.Other Key Action AreasOut with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places.  National Performance FrameworkThe Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations.

The viability of Minnesota’s industries, farms, utilities, and municipalities hinges an adequate supply of clean water. As Minnesota's population and economy grow, so does our use of water. In particular, groundwater use has increased 35 percent over the past 25 years, and use continues to increase. This trend may not be sustainable. Parts of Minnesota are vulnerable to groundwater shortages due to high pumping or population growth combined with reliance on a single water source. Minnesota is not yet in crisis, but we see warning signs in some areas where groundwater supply is at risk of depletion. Overuse of groundwater can also harm surface waters that depend on it, such as trout streams and wetlands. Groundwater pumping can introduce or move contaminants. Water moves easily through sands and the cracks in karst areas, making the groundwater underneath the sandy soils of central Minnesota and the karst of southeastern Minnesota particularly sensitive to pollution. Groundwater and surface water are interconnected, so depletion or contamination of groundwater can affect surface water as well.  Some areas of Minnesota will experience decreased precipitation as a result of more localized, large storm events that leave some areas saturated and others without any precipitation. Large areas of the State have been severely impacted by drought and while effects of dry periods on water quality haven't been adequately studied, a decreasing water supply for drinking water and agriculture are public health concerns. Increasingly severe droughts in the Mississippi River Basin could also pose problems for navigation in Minnesota. For example, a drought in 2012 led the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restrict navigation on the lower Mississippi River, which affected shipping upstream.",0

Not only is the state government in demand here; At the same time, business and industry, science and municipalities are called upon to make their contribution. The region's climate targets are laid down in the North Rhine-Westphalian Climate Protection Act - a 25 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 and by 80 percent by 2050 compared to 1990.

+"Do you have a region-wide plan to reduce SLCPs? If so, please provide details of your plan and attach it to this question.","The topic of geothermal energy is becoming increasingly important among the energy technologies. NRW, and here in particular the Ruhr region, occupies a key position as home to numerous market-leading companies. With warm mine water in disused mines, NRW has significant potential for heating buildings, which still needs to be tapped. The first projects have already been realised in Essen, Marl and at the Robert Müser mine. In order to systematically measure the potential of the mine water, the NRW State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has compiled the “Warm Mine Water” potential study. In this study, the technical potential of the warm mine water was determined by blending the supply at selected hard coal and lignite mining sources with the existing heat sinks. For example, in the hard coal mining regions alone, the warm mine water, which can be used via water retention sites or accessible shafts, could provide a heat quantity of around 1,300 gigawatt hours per year in the reference year 2035 for the future heat supply in NRW. This is the heating requirement for around 75,000 single-family homes.More than half of NRW’s heating requirement can be met by using near-surface geothermal energy. This is shown by the “Potential Study Renewable Energies NRW - Part 4 - Geothermal Energy”. According to calculations by the State Environmental Agency, which prepared the state-wide potential study, the potential for the use of near-surface geothermal energy in NRW is just under 154 terawatt hours per year (TWh/a). This could cover about 57 percent of the annual heat requirement. The study shows that the climate-friendly use of geothermal energy in NRW is not yet exhausted and that NRW has very good conditions for the use of near-surface geothermal energy. The results of the study as well as the ground source heat pumps currently in existence can be viewed in the Energieatlas.NRW. (www.energieatlas.nrw.de)The NRW Geothermal Energy Portal provides quick and comprehensive access to information for planning ground source heat pump systems. For the use of geothermal energy, the geological and hydrogeological conditions have been evaluated for each site in NRW. This applies to both ground collectors laid flat and geothermal probes up to 100 metres deep. (www.geothermie.nrw.de)",0

+Do you consider that these impacts of climate change threaten the ability of businesses to operate successfully in your region? Please explain the reasoning behind your response.,"Increasing temperatures impact Minnesota’s agricultural industry since agriculture is highly dependent on specific climate conditions. As a result of increasing temperature, crop production areas may shift to new regions of the state where the temperature range for growth and yield of those crops is optimal unless new climate adapted varieties are developed and utilized. According to the National Climate Assessment, the Midwest growing season has lengthened by almost two weeks since 1950 due in large part to earlier timing of the last spring freeze. This trend is expected to continue. While a longer growing season may increase total crop production, other climate changes, such as increased crop losses and soil erosion from more frequent and intense storms, and increases in pests and invasive species, could outweigh this benefit. There may also be higher livestock losses during periods of extreme heat and humidity. Losses of livestock from extreme heat lead to a challenge in disposal of animal carcasses. In an attempt to adapt to increased temperatures, livestock areas in Minnesota may shift farther north. As a result of new livestock areas and the resulting manure production, farmers may transition to manure-based fertilizer applications in areas where traditionally only commercial fertilizers have been used, with accompanying environmental advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, extreme heat can cause roads to buckle and damage other transportation infrastructure such as rail lines. This may increase expenditures for repairs, dangerous conditions for drivers, and potential for travel disruption.Flash flooding from extreme precipitation can damage the built environment, affecting commercial and residential buildings, roads, parks, and stormwater infrastructure. Water-saturated soils can destabilize bluffs, trees and utility poles.",1

Emissions from natural gas use in the commercial and residential sectors similarly increased in response to low natural gas prices.Emissions of high global warming potential (HGWP) GHGs increased across sectors because of their increased use in air conditioning and refrigeration. These HGWP GHGs replaced ozone-depleting substances and are now being phased out in favor of less polluting chemicals.Emissions from the transportation sector have flattened, mostly as a result of consumers choosing larger vehicles.

The updated Climate Change Plan demonstrates a comprehensive and credible pathway to meeting Scotland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, including actions to address emissions from electricity production, buildings, transport, industry, waste, land use and forestry, and agriculture  . Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP2) • In September 2019, we published our second 5-yearly statutory Climate Change Adaptation Programme. The programme sets out how the Scottish Government is responding to the main climate risks for Scotland. In total, there are around 170 policies and proposals which bring together a range of sectors from across government: from transport and infrastructure to flooding and the natural environment. The Programme is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Scotland’s National Performance Framework and champions climate justice, and promotes a people-centred, human-rights approach to climate change adaptation. Other Key Action Areas Out with these sectors covered in the Climate Change Plan, climate change action is being mainstreamed in a number of ways and we are acutely aware of the importance of cross-cutting issues such as education, health, planning and investment in our transition to net zero. For example, our future Infrastructure Investment Plans will be accompanied by an assessment of how they are expected to contribute to meeting emissions reduction targets and the Scottish National Investment Bank will soon be operational with a net zero objective and eventually investing its £2 billion capitalisation. Our forthcoming update to the National Planning Framework (NPF4) is also expected to play a key role in ensuring climate change action is delivered on the ground through development and reshaping our places. National Performance Framework The Scottish Government's national performance framework also helps to ensure that across government we are working towards a set of coherent, ambitious and positive outcomes. One of our 11 outcomes as a government is that we value, enjoy, protect and enhance our environment, recognising that it is our duty to protect and enhance these assets as essential to our economy, culture, way of life and the wellbeing of future generations. All of these collective actions can help us to achieve our vision of a sustainable, inclusive, wellbeing economy.",0

Scottish Enterprise, for example, helps Scottish organisations innovate at home and export their solutions internationally, securing early-mover advantage; helps to create the jobs and businesses of the future, and supporting existing businesses and organisations to become more resilient in transitioning to a net zero world; and ensures that we achieve an inclusive and ‘just transition’ that improves the opportunities, life chances and wellbeing of everyone in Scotland.Scottish Investment Bank supports low carbon transition, delivering a £3 billion investment portfolio.The Scottish Government and its enterprise and skills agencies have supported a network of industry leadership groups for many years.  Their role in the context of climate change is to bring together industry partners to provide leadership in addressing priorities in meeting Scotland’s climate change ambitions and targets.  The Scottish Energy Advisory Board, for example, includes a series of industry leadership and supply chain groups drawn from across the wider spectrum of low carbon opportunities. Beyond energy, there are similar leadership engagement structures in Zero Emission Mobility, Water (Hydro Nation) amongst others.  The input from these groups helps inform the development of Scottish Government policy, reflected in the energy strategy and climate change plan.The Scottish Government and its enterprise agencies have made significant investment in innovation and manufacturing support over many years.  This now includes a network of innovation centres with a focus on the low carbon transition, and institutes such as the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, Power Networks Distribution Centre, the National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland and the Lightweighting Centre of Excellence.  The former Michelin plant in Dundee is now also being repurposed as a low carbon innovation park.  In all of this work, resources are directed toward providing advice and engagement, particularly for SMEs, to help them connect with collaborative R&D resources to produce commercially viable technology.There is a range of knowledge transfer mechanisms across Scotland which connect the world-leading expertise in environmental and climate change science and technology to business-focused innovation programmes.  One examples is the Energy Technology Partnership and its Knowledge Exchange Network (ETP – KEN.)  The ETP is the Scottish academic research pool in energy.

+Please describe these current and/or anticipated impacts of climate change.,"Combined heat and power generation (CHP) is a classic sector coupling technology that combines electricity and heat generation extremely efficiently, thus contributing to the flexibility of these two sectors. CHP is characterised by a particularly high degree of fuel efficiency. CO2 emissions are significantly reduced compared to the separate generation of electricity and heat. Although CHP is already used in many fields, it still has a great deal of potential that has yet to be fully tapped. The NRW state government also emphasises the importance of CHP as an essential element of the energy transition programme in its energy supply strategy and will continue to drive forward the expansion of CHP. To analyse the potential existing in NRW, the state government, with the support of EnergieAgentur.NRW, has commissioned a new CHP potential study for NRW, with the aim of driving forward the expansion of CHP strategically.A further key element of the NRW energy supply strategy is grid-bound heat supply. In addition to the construction of local heating networks, the Rhine-Ruhr district heating line (FWSRR) will be the largest district heating network in the EU. By connecting the existing district heating lines in the Lower Rhine and Ruhr regions, the FWSRR makes a significant contribution to the CO2 and CHP targets of the state of NRW. In addition to CHP, industrial waste heat is going to be increasingly used as a source for district heating networks in NRW in future. On behalf of the state government, the State Office for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection has analysed the state-wide potential and is presenting this in the Industrial Waste Heat Potential Study NRW. The study shows that through consistent use of waste heat from industrial energy and production processes, up to 48 terawatt hours (TWh) of usable heat for heating purposes and production processes could be replaced annually. To expand the efficient supply of energy, the state government provides a support programme in the form of progres.nrw (Progress NRW). Among other things, this promotes the construction, expansion and conversion of heating networks and investment in district heating connections.   (www.kwk-für-nrw.de)",0

About 85 percent of the state properties are the responsibility of the construction and real estate operation NRW, whose inventory alone comprises around 4,600 buildings. The activities of the state administration and the universities release about one million tons of CO2 per year. Around 90 percent of these emissions are generated by existing buildings, in particular by the need for space heating and electricity.The state government is developing strategies and concepts to avoid, reduce and, if necessary, offset emissions from the administration. In addition to the topic of buildings, this also concerns the expansion of renewable energies on state-owned properties, the reduction of CO2 emissions in the vehicle fleet and business trips, climate-neutral procurement, the implementation of climate-neutral events and the sensitization of employees.https://www.klimaschutz.nrw.de/themen/klimaneutrale-landesverw/",0

The 2009 Act requires that advice is requested from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) on a range of issues, including an annual progress report and future advice on annual targets. The CCC is an independent, statutory body established under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. It advises the UK Government and Devolved Administrations on emissions targets and reports to Parliament on progress made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change. The CCC is responsible to the UK Parliament, the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and Environment and Climate Change Ministers from the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) which is part of the CCC, is also established under the UK Climate Change Act to support the CCC in advising and reporting on progress in adaptation.In May 2018 the Scottish Government introduced proposals for a new Climate Change Bill, which increases the ambition of the targets in the 2009 Act.
