Climate Mitigation
Climate mitigation encompasses actions that reduce or prevent greenhouse gas emissions, or enhance carbon sinks, to limit the extent of global warming.
What is Climate Mitigation?
Climate mitigation includes all activities that reduce the flow of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. At the organisational level, this means energy efficiency, renewable energy, fuel switching, process improvements, supply chain engagement, and investment in carbon removal. Mitigation is distinct from adaptation, which addresses the impacts of climate change that are already happening. Effective climate strategy requires both.
Practical Examples
A manufacturer mitigates climate change by electrifying its heating systems, switching to renewable electricity, and engaging suppliers to reduce embodied carbon.
A city implements climate mitigation through building efficiency standards, public transport investment, and urban tree planting.
