L'Agence européenne pour l'environnement (AEE) et l'Agence spatiale européenne (ESA) organisent une conférence sur l'Observation de la Terre pour la surveillance du carbone terrestre dans le cadre législatif européen. La conférence se tiendra en anglais.
The conference aims to bring together experts from various fields to discuss how Earth observation can enable continuous, large-scale monitoring, offering timely and accurate data in the EU context. Particular attention will be given to the implementation of the LULUCF regulation and the forthcoming Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming Certification (CRCF) Regulation and other related topics (e.g. blue carbon).
The conference is organized in two parts:
- EO for improving LULUCF Monitoring, reporting and verification - 8-9 of October,
- Second Forum on EO for Carbon Markets - 9-11 October.
Please note that participation is in person only. Please register by 10 September using the following REGISTRATION LINK (Free registration on a first-come, first-served basis)
Venue: DGI Byen Tietgensgade 65, 1704 København V
Objectives of the Conference
In the ongoing quest to mitigate climate change, the role of land in sequestering carbon has become increasingly crucial. The European Union has recognized this through the implementation of the Land Use, Land Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) regulation and the EU carbon removal certification framework. These frameworks aim to ensure that land-use practices contribute effectively to the EU's climate goals by accurately tracking carbon fluxes and promoting sustainable land management practices.
This conference, co-organized by the EEA and ESA, aims to bring together experts from various fields to discuss how Earth observation can enable continuous, large-scale monitoring, offering timely and accurate data in the context of the EU LULUCF regulation and the forthcoming EU carbon removal certification framework.
This conference seeks to:
- Update on Recent Climate Policy Developments: Provide an overview of recent climate policy developments at the EU level in the land sector, covering LULUCF improved MRV requirements and the forthcoming Carbon Removals certification framework, exploring interlinkages between the two as well as other EU initiatives (EU-ETS)
- Highlight Advances in Earth Observation: Showcase the latest developments in satellite and remote sensing technologies relevant to carbon monitoring.
- Discuss Regulatory Implications: Explore the intersection of Earth observation capabilities with the LULUCF regulation and the carbon removal certification framework.
- Share Best Practices: Provide a platform for sharing successful case studies and methodologies in land carbon monitoring and verification.
- Foster Collaboration: Encourage collaboration between GHG National inventory compilers, scientists, policymakers, and industry stakeholders to enhance the effectiveness of carbon removals initiatives.
