The Improvement Plan of Action to Promote Carbon Neutrality and Low Carbon Activities

Absrtact
As an extension of previous projects, this project focused on several perspectives, such as promoting the comprehensive carbon neutrality in the environmental protection and low carbon activity, researching, analyzing and expanding the carbon neutrality participation, spreading the concept of promotion of incentive and guiding schemes as well as applied software development to introduce informationalization, updating and maintaining the carbon neutrality and low-carbon activity platforms and advancing the Carbon Neutral and Environmental Low Carbon Activity internet platform and other administrative cooperation. At the end of this project, we will briefly report as follows: (A)Improving promotion system and tools for precipitating in the comprehensive carbon neutrality of the environmental protection and low-carbon activity. 1.By researching and analyzing the internationally leading cases (e.g., Rio 2016 Summer Games Olympics, the 23rd session of the Conference of the Parties (COP23), Group of Twenty Summit (G20), etc.), we found out that many enterprises include the economic, environmental and social factors into their promotion process in addition to implementing low carbon and carbon management, that they also communicate with stakeholders and that their behaviors conform to the internationally perpetual management system ISO20121. Therefore, they can be application erences for our country. 2.In this project, we found out that most of the enterprises’ cases and National Carbon Offset Standard are usually seen in the service industry. For example, Australia, which created a social atmosphere and established a policy to drive the voluntary carbon reduction actions and urge the enterprises to willingly implement the carbon reduction actions. Meanwhile, our country pushes forward the carbon neutrality policy in the product export oriented manufacturing industry as a priority, mainly because brands in this market segment must also conform to the requirements of international regulations for green enterprise image . 3. On the environmental protection and low-carbon activity platforms, there have been accumulated over 20,000 cases, resulting in an accumulative carbon reduction of 1,522t CO2e (about equal to 5.82 times the carbon absorption amount of the Daan Park).Through analyzing, these results, we found that these activities have been spreading from public-sector units to private units (12%), indicating an obvious effect of promotion. In addition, the application is not limited to six special municipalities but other cities and counties, such as Changhua County. 4.In order to enlarge the application scope, we provide some specific carbon reduction strategies to users after analyzing the activity scale and emissions for the past years. Moreover, we compared those implementing cases following the research of this project with those cases without implementing the activities. It was found that the difference in carbon reduction efficiency between the two case groups may reach about 20%-30%. Therefore, we have planned to establish a carbon emission declaration mechanism and a simple calculation window (with the calculation formula inside it) for large-scale activities (over 500 participants), to facilitate the application of sponsors, exhibitors and activity participants. 5.As the guideline for environmental protection and low carbon activity was declared in 2010, we amended this guideline to make it more complete. For its disadvantages(e.g. after-event feedback and verification), referred to the international ISO20121 activity management standard and its content of sustainability, feedback and communication with the stakeholders. Finally, we have re-arranged and re-written the description. It is hoped that these revised guidelines can be provided to the potential users for reference.
