“…we will reverse the burden of proof. Ecological solutions will no longer be required to prove their benefits.
Instead, non-ecological projects will be required to prove that they could not be carried out differently.
Proof will be required of so-called non-ecological decisions that they were the last resort.”
Sarkozy, 2007

20 years to make a difference …
>2 degree C temp. increase is almost unavoidable …
>3 degree C temp. increase is most likely …
It is unlikely we will be able to adapt to +3 degree C
To stabilize @ 2-3 deg.C, CO2-e >450ppm (we are now at 430ppm)
To Reduce emissions to 2000 levels:
By 2030 ~ 50 - 85% reductions (2 – 2.4 deg. C increase)By 2050 ~ 30 – 60% reductions (2.4 – 3 deg.C increase)

A U.N. Initiative
Vision ~ Climate Neutral Construction by 2020
The SBCI Global 2020 vision will be achieved when all countries have access to the policies, knowledge, benchmarks, best practices and financial mechanisms that support sustainable buildings and construction in general, and have begun the continual improvement of their construction sectors towards climate neutrality.

Barriers to sustainable buildings
1. Fragmentation of the building sector means there is no incentive for life cycle thinking.
2. Disconnect between building investors and building users.
3. Lack of common understanding of how to define and quantify benefit from sustainable buildings.
4. Lack of practical know how in many cases
5. Lack of political leadership and capacity

• UNEP SBCI (2006): The building sector is not able to address the climate change challenge without government intervention (positive and negative).
• WBCSD (2007): There is a need for regulation to activate the building sector to achieve energy efficiency.
• G8 Gleneagles process (2007): Need for framework legislation to support positive contribution of buildings climate change mitigation.
• Marrakech Task Force on SBC (2007): Set of recommendations for governments to develop policies for sustainable buildings
• IPCC (2007): Need for cross-sectoralharmonization of policies.
• Finance Initiatives (2007): The finance sector cannot support SBC without framework policies having been established by governments
• WGBC (2006): Need for public support for private sector actions towards SBC

Making Policy Work for SBC
• Policies can be both very efficient and very cost efficient. Costs to society varied between US$ +66 and US$ -216 per ton of CO2 eqv (i.e. a cost saving of US$ 216 per ton of CO2 avoided).
• Regulatory tools are often both more effective and more cost efficient than economic tools. This is due to the fact that the building market is very fragmented.
• Best results are achieved if several tools are applied in combination with each other (sticks, carrots and tambourines)
• The public sector has a strong potential to show leadership by applying sustainable building guidelines to own buildings.

Keep in Mind
1. Sustainable Buildings are a mainstream ideology – but not yet mainstream practice.
2. The building sector/market is not able to shift towards sustainable buildings on its own. Governments must support this shift!
3. Governments can act as policy makers, as project owners, and as market players.
4. Climate change is a challenge and a driver. Smart planners and policy makers link their wider agendas with climate change mitigation opportunities.
