OS-Climate members like Allianz, Amazon/AWS, and BNP Paribas showcase collaborative solutions for Physical Risk & Resilience and Sector Alignment with climate goals. Use cases include credit risk in banking and portfolio construction for asset managers, with potential public interest applications, such as collaboration with Nigerian Universities for agriculture risk. The presentation emphasizes the importance of accurate, interoperable data for actionable insights and introduces OS-Climate's Data Mesh architecture, addressing data challenges. The architecture's deployment for carbon footprint data in sovereign bonds aligns with Net Zero goals, with broader applications discussed at COP, including biodiversity and nature-based solutions. Cloud-based high-performance computing and the Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative play a crucial role.Circular City Snapshots: A Decarbonized & Equitable Transition at ScaleGloCha2023-12-04 | The looming perils of climate change, once-in-a-lifetime policy shifts, intrinsic and extrinsic systemic inequalities, and a rapidly growing global population is causing many to consider the limitations of the current take-make-waste economic model and examine the possibility of a transition to a regenerative and equitable circular economy as a potential antidote for humanity’s ills. Circular solutions already exist that can help cities rapidly decarbonize in an equitable context…they are only lacking the regulatory environment to incentivize an authentic human transition. This session focuses on how cities can integrate and incentivize equity, decarbonization, and economic development under one platform and help steward a new economic platform that prioritizes the lives and livelihoods of its citizens and the natural environment over excess and waste.

A fundamental issue that plagues voluntary carbon markets today is the lack of transparency and related trust in carbon credits. Digital measurement, reporting and verification technologies (dMRV) can build shared confidence across project developers, buyers, sellers, lenders, investors and intermediaries in the true environmental impact of carbon claims. These actors are also exposed to a myriad of risks that can affect project attractiveness and bankability. These include potential physical losses to carbon offset generating assets, environmental liabilities associated with project implementation, political and regulatory risks, and underperformance in / non-delivery of expected carbon emission reductions / removals.
Combining dMRV technologies with carbon insurance covers offers a potential means to support quality and high-integrity voluntary carbon markets and net zero targets. This industry panel will share perspectives about how dMRV and insurance together support the life cycle journey of the generation, monitoring, verification, insuring, and ultimate purchase and retirement of a high integrity carbon credit.
