• Networking with other environmental NGOs

• Brazilian Forum on Climate Change, and local forums

• Strengthen the role of natural areas in mitigating and adapting to climate change

• Since 2009 is registered as an observer member of the UNFCCC

• Contribution to National Plan for Adaptation through the elaboration of studies, participation in public consultations and workshops

ECOSYSTEM-BASED ADAPTATION: opportunities for public policies in climate change - http://goo.gl/umgZhl

EBA:The use of biodiversity and ecosystem services t o help people adapt to the adverse effects of climate change”

• Participation with government, universities and other NGOs in the development of a tool for use by civil society in planning adaptation strategies

Ecosystem -based adaptation (EbA )

There are various approaches for adaptation to climate change , such as a danger-based approach and management of risks, vulnerabilities, resilience and ecosystems.

Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) is, therefore, one of the adaptation strategies existing, and can be used in combination with other strategies , taking into account the cost-benefit evaluation, the cost-effectiveness and the co-benefits – that is, the implantation measures for adaptation to climate change associated with the ma intenance of environmental services and with biodiversity conser vation .

Well-managed ecosystems have greater potential for adaptation , and both resist and recover from the impacts of extreme climate events with less difficulty ; in addition to this, they provide a greater range of benefits , upon which people depend

SEEG – System for Estimation of GHG Emissions

Purpose

• Produce and make available annualestimation of GHG on a consistent and accessiblebasis

• Increase the capacity of the civil society to understand and anticipate trends related to GHG emissions and it’s implications of public policy

Products

• Annual Estimation of GHG across all sector and gases

• Analytical Reports

• Web Platform spread the data, methodology and supporting documents

• Annual Technical Seminar

SEEG – System for Estimation of GHG Emissions

SEEG (www.seeg.eco.br) is implemented by the Climate Observatory

Four institutions coordinated the technical process of generation of the estimates: – Imazon (land use change) http://www.imazon.org.br/– Imaflora (agriculture) – www.imaflora.org– IEMA (energy and industrial processes) – http://www.energiaeambiente.org.br/– ICLEI (waste) – www.iclei.org.br

Foundación Avina and Getúlio Vargas Foundation provide organizational support.

This initiative has received or receives funding from the following organizations: – OAK Foundation – Fundación Avina– Latin American Regional Climate Initiative (LARCI) – Institute Climate and Society (iCS)– Climate and Land Use Alliance – Skoll Foundation – Porticus Foundation

The overall coordination of SEEG is headed by Tasso Azevedo who design the initial methodology used as the basis to stablish the system.

SEEG - System for Estimation of GHG Emissions

Developed originally as an initiative by the Climate Observatory

First edition in 2013Online database with free access. The SEEG data for Brazil includes emissions from 1970 to 2014 related to all segments of the

national economy, all the GHG emissions reported in the national inventory, with disaggregation of the information at state level.

Spread the SEEG methodology to other countries produce their own emissions estimates from data available nationally.

PeruProcess started in 2014, during the preparation of the UN Conference on Climate Change

(COP20), organized in Lima. The first edition of SEEG Peru was published in May 2015.

Indiaa coalition of local civil society organizations. The first edition of SEEG India was published in

July 2016.
