SUMMARY:Webinar: Taxing Energy Use: Reforming Energy Tax Systems to Achieve Environmental Goals
DESCRIPTION:With almost no emissions from energy use priced at levels required to keep global temperature increases below 2 degrees Celsius\, there is still considerable scope\, and an urgent need\, to improve the use of taxation to reduce pollution and combat climate change.\n\nHow do energy and carbon taxes differ across countries\, different fuels and sectors? What should be done to reduce emissions and reach global climate goals at minimum cost?\n\nJoin environmental tax economists from the OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration on 14 February to discuss the key findings from the upcoming OECD publication\, Taxing Energy Use 2018\, which measures the magnitude and coverage of energy and carbon taxes in 42 OECD and G20 countries and provides a first appreciation of changes in energy and carbon taxes over time.\n\nDetails and registration: http://www.oecd.org/environment/green-talks-live.htm

SUMMARY:Fish Trade\, Fisheries Subsidies and SDG 14
DESCRIPTION:Worldwide\, more than 3 billion people depend on marine and coastal resources for their livelihoods. Yet globally\, the proportion of overfished\, depleted\, or recovering fish stocks has increased from just above 50 per cent in the mid-1970s to almost 90 per cent in 2013. This has disastrous impacts on our marine ecosystems and biodiversity\, imperils livelihoods and undermines economic prosperity. \nSome forms of regulatory measures contribute significantly to this problem providing incentives which may encourage. Regulating harmful fisheries subsidies can help reduce economically damaging and unfair fisheries practices\, while helping to restore productive fisheries resources\, healthy marine ecosystems and biodiversity \nThe Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 14 of the 2030 Agenda commits UN Member States “to conserve and sustainably use the oceans\, seas and marine resources for sustainable development”. This includes fighting against harmful fishery practices by 2020. \nUN Environment\, the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) are working together in order to bring these issues to the fore. At this year’s World Trade Organisation (WTO) Ministerial Conference\, they jointly organized a high level session on fisheries entitled “Fish Trade\, Fisheries Subsidies and SDG 14” \, in partnership with the Commonwealth. The session aimed to improve WTO negotiators’ understanding on recent trends in fish trade\, the importance of existing UN Regulation (ILOS)\, and discuss up to date fish-related measures in developing countries. \nIn particular\, the session addressed the significance of fish and fish products to international trade\, food security\, nutrition and poverty reduction and development\, the regulatory framework and relevant international instruments applicable to fisheries\, and the trade barriers in fish trade and how they affect market access. \nThere is an urgent need for governments to come together to protect livelihoods and marine ecosystems. Putting fisheries in focus during the WTO Ministerial aimed to provide deeper understanding of the trade-related aspects of the 14th Sustainable Development Goal\, thereby providing a framework under which consensus may be reached with respect to disciplining fish subsidies.

SUMMARY:COP23 side event: Supporting the implementation of the NDCs -- the role of carbon pricing and fiscal policies
DESCRIPTION:Fiscal policies such as carbon pricing and fossil fuel subsidy reform can mobilise revenues for climate finance and provide a cost-effective approach to reducing GHG emissions. The role of such instruments in supporting climate action is increasingly recognized and over 90 countries included some form of fiscal policies in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). This event examined the role of carbon pricing and fiscal policies in implementing the NDCs. It brought together a panel of experts to discuss countries’ commitments on fiscal policies in their NDCs\, challenges faced and what still needs to be done to meet the Paris targets.\n\nDownload the event flyer HERE and the agenda HERE.\n\nThe panel was composed of members of government delegations\, international organizations\, and civil society groups:\n\n 	Joy Kim\, Senior Economic Affairs Officer\, Economy Division\, UN Environment (moderator)\n 	Silke Karcher\, Head of Division “European Climate and Energy Policy; New Market Mechanisms”\, German Federal Ministry for the Environment\, Nature Conservation\, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB)\n 	Kai Schlegelmilch\, President\, Green Budget Germany (FÖS)\n 	Laura Merrill\, GSI Operations Manager and Senior Policy Adviser\, International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD)\n 	Parjiono Ciptowidarto\, Director for Climate Finance and Multilateral Policy\, Ministry of Finance\, Indonesia\n\nThe event took place in the German Pavilion\, located in the “Bonn Zone”.
