"As I walked past the White House this morning my mind was caught up by NDCs – climate action plans that every country has agreed to submit to the UN in the coming year under the Paris Agreement – and how they could be reconceived around emerging opportunities." Hear from Climate Bonds' CEO Sean Kidney about how governments can transform climate action into an economic opportunity.

Senior Transition Policy Analyst at Climate Bonds Initiative with expertise in global energy and industrial transition policy
🌍 📢 Absolutely thrilled to announce the launch of the latest Climate Bonds Initiative input paper for the G20 Brasil 2024 Sustainable Finance Working Group, tackling the challenge of mobilising private finance for a credible and just transition in the steel and cement sectors! 🌱 🏗️ **Why This Matters:** 🔹 **High Impact:** Steel and cement together account for over 13% of global CO2 emissions. Transforming these sectors is crucial for our climate goals 🌐 🔹 **Urgent Opportunity:** With 70% of coal-based steel blast furnace capacity requiring reinvestment by 2030, particularly in emerging markets, we have a prime chance to pivot to greener methods ⚙️ 🌿 🔹 **Government Influence:** Public procurement can be a game-changer. By prioritising low-carbon steel and cement, governments can stimulate massive investments in sustainable technologies 🏛️ 💡 🔹 **More Transparency in Transition Plans:** Consistent and transparent disclosure on financing and emissions is essential for credible transition plans and attracting private capital 💰 🔍 🔹 **Just Focus:** A just transition ensures that moving to a low-carbon economy benefits all, minimising social and economic disruptions 🌍 🤝 **Call to Action for Policymakers:** 1. 🛒 Use public procurement to drive demand for low-carbon products 2. 🤝 Collaborate with stakeholders to manage transition risks effectively 3. 🌍 Promote international coordination for credible transition plans 4. 📝 Provide clear and sector-specific policy guidance to enhance transition efforts **Why the G20's Role is Crucial:** The **G20** represents the world’s largest economies, making its influence and commitment vital for global change. By setting the standard and leading by example, the G20 can inspire and mobilise private finance, countries and corporates worldwide to commit to a sustainable and equitable future 🌏 💼 This decade is crucial. The decisions we make now will shape the future of the steel and cement industries. I am incredibly proud of this work and its potential impact on fostering a sustainable and inclusive future 🌱 🌟 Special thanks to the **G20** for providing a global platform to address these critical issues and for their commitment to sustainable finance 🌐 📈 A huge thank you to the amazing team whose contributions made this paper possible: Sean Kidney, Julia Ambrosano, Bridget Boulle, Lily Burge, Stephanie Edghill, Neha Kumar, Leonardo Gava Mataram, Matthew MacGeoch, Magali Caroline Van Coppenolle, Leandro Waquil, Xiaoyun (Cloudy) Xu And a special thank you to ODI and Sarah Colenbrander 🙌 👏 #SustainableFinance #ClimateAction #GreenTransition #Steel #Cement #EmergingMarkets #JustTransition #G20 #ClimateBondsInitiative #GlobalImpact #Innovation #Sustainability #Collaboration #Future #Leadership #Policy #Environment

This is the decade of change for #steel and #cement, which as the two largest industrial #emitters globally are pivotal to meeting the Paris Agreement objectives. ♻ #Opportunity: Over 70% of coal-based steel blast furnace capacity will need reinvestment by 2030. That means the next five years are our best opportunity to build a sustainable steel industry. 📖 #Policy: Public procurement accounts for up to 25% of steel and 40% of cement global demand. Policymakers hold the keys to driving this transition. ✅ #Plans: Credible transition plans are the means to access private capital required for the transition of both sectors. Credible transition plans support credible investment. Learn how policymakers can speed, steer, and simplify the #transition of these hard-to-abate industries to #netzero. By mobilising private capital and ensuring the transition is both rapid and just, policymakers can capitalise on the tremendous opportunity to build stronger, more sustainable industries. This paper was prepared at the G20 Brasil 2024 Sustainable Finance Working Group request under the Brazilian Presidency and served as input for the G20 Sustainable Finance Working Group discussions.
