Building A Sustainable Organisation: Achieving Carbon Neutrality by 2030

This report discusses how Practical Action and the EU are working towards carbon neutrality by 2030 and complying with the Paris Agreement. Practical Action aims to protect front-line groups and low-income communities from the impacts of climate change, while the EU has set a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030. The report also covers the objectives and initiatives set by these organizations to achieve their goals.

INTRODUCTION
Carbon dioxide emission is one of the major component that is causing global warming
on the planet. The Paris Agreement was signed in December 2015 by almost 195 countries in
order to strengthens the international response to the challenges or risk caused by climate change
following the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) 1992 and
Kyoto Protocol 1997 (Wannags and Gold, 2020). COP26 is one of the yearly meeting of UN
climate Change Conference which is the most crucial summit on climate change in the world.
Conference of the Parties (COP), the nations that signed the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change which was chosen in the year 1992. COP26 is defined as one of
the most important climate moments by climate expert since the 2015 Paris Agreement, where
nations would report on how they have achieved success in executing agreement (Practical
Action at COP26. 2021). The following essay discuss how EU will accomplish carbon neutral by
the year 2030 along with complying with projected goals and standard of Paris agreement.
MAIN BODY
Practical Action is an international innovative development company which works by
implementing ingenious ideas in order to provide individuals in poverty an opportunity to update
their world. The vision of the organisation is to build a world which works better for every
individuals. At COP26, the team of Practical action would share the lesson and raise voice of
people with whom the organisation work on the front line of climate modifications. The
organisation is required finances and action in order to protect front-line groups as well as low
income communities from present along with future influences of climate change (Nilsson and
Weitz, 2019). To create regenerative economy the organisation require to drive biodiversity
restoration, livelihood improvement as well as employment development. The organisation
would bring solutions and real world experience that work to climate debate. The company is a
trustable partner prominent with decision-makers from groups and government along with local
to national as well as international level. The respective organisation is committed to work with
front-line workers in order to make sure that they are treated as rights-holder rather than
beneficiaries. At COP26, the respective company would focus on decision taken at international
level that should result to national actions with participation from local people. The selective
organisation is involves in this programme by supporting delegates from the international south,

providing its expert people and informations from around fifty years of working with domestic
group of people. The main asks of the respective organisation for COP26 include Limit Warning
to 1.5°C, Scale Up Climate Finance, Address Loss and Damage, Drive Inclusive Action and
Promote Solutions that work for People and Nature (Practical Action at COP26. 2021).
The Commission's proposal has decided to reduce greenhouse gas emission by almost
55% by the year 2030 which sets Europe accountable to become climate neutral by the year
2050. According to comprehensive impact assessment, the Commission has aim to enhance the
aspiration of EU to minimise greenhouse gases and established more aspiring path for upcoming
ten years. The respective assessment represents how all aspects of society and economy could
lend and establish out the policy actions need to accomplish this objective. The main objectives
of this assessment include establish cost-effective and ambitious ways to accomplish climate
neutrality by the year 2050. The second objective is to stimulate the development of green
employment and continue the track evidences of EU to cut down greenhouse gas emission whilst
increasing economy of country. The final objective is to motivate global partner to enhance their
aims to limit the increment in international temperature to almost 1.5°C and ignore the most
sever results of climate modifications (Kerin and Pham, 2019). The Commission in the Climate
Target Plan 2030 aims to increase desire of EU on decreasing greenhouse gas emission to around
55% below 1990 levels by the year 2030. This is considered as substantial enhancement as
compared to present target ascending from the past target of almost 40% (2030 Climate Target
Plan, 2021). The European Commission on 14 July 2021 choose to adopt a series of legislative
proposals in which it states how it will accomplish climate neutrality by the year 2050 involving
middle aim of almost 55% overall deduction in greenhouse gas emission by the year 2030 (2030
Climate Target Plan, 2021). The Commission introduced a public consulting in the March 2020
where it has invited shareholders and people to provide their ideas or opinions on EU's climate
aims of 2030 along with action and policy design important for more greenhouse gas emission
minimisation. This will the assist the country in a resilient and modernised EU economy where
there would be around 60% minimisation in air pollution by the year 2030, approximately one
million electric charging point around EU, from reduced imports almost €100 billion saved by
year 2030 and many other factors(2030 Climate Target Plan, 2021).

CONCLUSION
From the above discussion it has been evaluated that it is very essential to reduce carbon
emission as this is one of the major cause of pollution. Practical Action at COP26 is taking
measures to protect climate and reduce changes occurring with the help of its team who would
work with front-liners as they know what measures are required to be taken for bringing climate
changes. From the above essay it has been observed that Practical action is aiming to find
solutions of toughest issues faced by the world. COP26 is an annual meeting of UN Climate
Change Conference which is considered as most vital climate moment. From the above
discussion about EU wants to become carbon neutral by the year 2030 it has been analysed that
European commission is adopting a programme of legislative proposals. It could be concluded
from the above essay that target plan of 2030 has established a way which is cost-effective and
ambitious which would assist the country in accomplishing climate neutrality by the year 2050.
