LIFE and Climate change mitigation

*February 2015 - 92 pages *

In anticipation of the award of the first action grants from the LIFE
sub-programme for Climate Action, the latest LIFE Environment Focus
publication takes an in-depth look at LIFE's work till now in support of
climate change mitigation.

The* LIFE and Climate change mitigation* brochure gives an overview of EU
climate policy and provides a host of best practice examples from more than
200 featured projects from across the European Union.

With a foreword by EU Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy, Miguel
Arias CaƱete, the 88-page publication includes interviews with
representatives of DG Climate Action and with NGOs active in the field.
These highlight the climate mitigation challenges ahead and LIFE's role in
the transition to low-carbon agriculture.

LIFE climate change mitigation project examples are divided by theme, with
chapters on strategies and plans at local, regional and national level;
energy; transport; agriculture and forestry; the role of peatlands and
wetlands as carbon sinks; and projects involving enterprises.

Each of these chapters highlights useful lessons from completed LIFE
projects and potential areas of focus for future funding. As such it is
essential reading for practitioners, policy-makers and all those with an
interest in the work that the European Union is doing to fight climate
change.
