of ecosystems are now damaged or being used unsustainably 60%

2 to 3 billion addi&onal middle class consumers by 2030

140 billion tonnes of global extrac&on of natural resources per year if consump&on stays at current

developed country rates

3°C or more rise in temperature by the end of the century, due to doubling of GHG emissions by 2050 , under BAU.

What is SCP?

Sustainable ConsumpEon and ProducEon (SCP) is about “the use of services and related products, which respond to basic needs and bring a beLer quality of life while minimizing the use of natural resources and toxic materials as well as the emissions of waste and pollutants over the life cycle of the service or product so as not to jeopardize the needs of further generaEons”. (Oslo symposium, 1994)

SCP is not necessarily about consuming less. It is about doing more and beLer with less.

Agenda 21, adopted in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 “The major cause of the con&nued deteriora&on of the global environment are the unsustainable paEerns of consump&on and produc&on…”

Johannesburg Plan of Implementa=on (JPOI) – 2002

“SCP is one of the overarching objec=ves of, and essen=al requirements for, sustainable development.”

“Encourage and promote the development of a 10-‐year framework of programmes (10YFP) in support of regional and na&onal ini&a&ves to accelerate the shiL towards SCP….”

SCP Mandate from Rio to Rio

Marrakech Process: Outcomes

Development of regional SCP Strategies: in Africa, Asia Pacific, La&n America, Europe and West Asia. Development of Na=onal SCP Programmes through capacity building and implementa&on over 15 countries. Seven Task Forces : voluntary ini&a&ves led by governments, in coopera&on with mul&-‐stakeholder partners that focus on developing and implemen&ng SCP policies, business management prac&ces, consumer ac&on, capacity building and projects. Over 70 ini=a=ves on SCP with 33 demonstra=on and pilot projects implemented worldwide.

Parragraph 226. We adopt the 10-‐year framework of programmes on sustainable consumpEon and producEon paLerns, as contained in document A/CONF.216/5, and highlight that the programmes included in the 10-‐year framework are voluntary. We invite the General Assembly, at its sixty-‐seventh session, to designate a Member State body to take any necessary steps to fully operaEonalize the framework.
