The carbonn® Climate Registry is a global reporting platform for cities, towns and regions tackling climate change - created to support transparency, accountability and credibility. The cCR aims to advance global climate action by supporting local and regional governments to strengthen action at the subnational level and providing a wealth of information through integrated reporting that can help raise ambition and action at the national level. cCR helps local and other subnational governments to track and report on their targets, actions and performance. This platform allows for exchange, learning and benchmarking among its 950+ registered entities while providing data that feeds into global climate negotiations through ICLEI as focal point for the Local Governments and Municipal Authorities constituency.
The carbonn Climate Registry is the voluntary and public reporting platform for local and other subnational governments, enabling these entities to report and monitor their climate and energy commitments, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions performance, plans as well as climate change mitigation and adaptation actions. The cCR supports cities, towns and regions in developing robust reporting practices that enhance transparency, accountability and credibility. The platform uses reporting tools consistent with global standards and protocols and encourages measurable, reportable and verifiable (MRV) local climate action.
As reporting entities, local and regional governments also make use of opportunities for benchmarking to evaluate and improve performance. Those that report comprehensive and high quality data are recognized by the cCR and showcased as leaders in local climate action. Data from the cCR shows the impact of local climate action and how this action could contribute to Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the realization of the goal set in the Paris Climate Agreement to remain well below a temperature increase of 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. These reported results build the case for scaling up support for local climate action and also contribute to ICLEI’s global climate advocacy messaging. ICLEI uses this data to represent its network and all local and other subnational governments in the global climate negotiations, working with its partners in calling for support to scale up local climate action and raise global climate ambition.
