International Centre for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI) - Local Governments for Sustainability:
Cities for Climate Protection (CCP) Campaign
Many local governments are concerned that the world's energy systems and our patterns of energy consumption do not address the basic needs of current and future urban dwellers. These local government realize that the world's current energy systems put urban dwellers at risk of climate change, local environmental degradation, disturbances in international energy markets, etc. In response, local governments have long worked to improve their own management of energy systems and have called for more aggressive international attention to devising a sustainable energy future. The promotion of renewable energy has been an important component of their work. In this side event, local government leaders will present examples of such actions.
