The London Accord is a collaboration between investment banks, research houses, academics and NGOs to produce free research on climate change for financial investors. It is intended as a reference guide for investors in the climate change sector. The London Accord is the largest cooperative project in the world on investment opportunities in avoiding climate change (about 7 million UK pounds).〔http://www.excelconferences.com/7.html 〕 ==History== The London Accord began in 2005, was launched formally in March 2007 〔(City of London Website )〕 and published its first results on 19 December 2007 launching them at a roll out meeting at Mansion House in London. These findings are freely available from its website. Its main summary of December 2007 said: *The IPCC shows that the world needs to act to avoid disastrous climate change, and act now. *The Stern Report shows that the overall cost of strong early action is much less than the cost of inaction. *The International Energy Agency shows the changes in fuel mix and energy usage that are necessary to stabilise greenhouse gas concentrations at a safe level. *The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change shows how much money is required by region and by technology to realise a scenario that achieves stabilisation. *The UNFCCC report shows further that 86% of that investment has to come from the private sector. That equates to private sector investment through 2030 in excess of $600bn per year. *The London Accord report shows investors and policy makers by technology how attractive that private investment is, at the end of 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The London Accord」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
