982 cities and regions around the world have committed to one or more forms of ambitious climate action, including declaring climate emergency, adopting carbon neutrality targets, divesting from fossil fuels and transforming to 100% renewable energy.
Reaching to 982 entries as of October 2020, Pioneers of Climate Ambition is a compilation of cities and regions within the ICLEI network that (1) declared climate emergency, (2) adopted climate neutrality, (3) are in transition to 100% Renewable Energy and (4) are divesting from fossil fuels.
As part of its support to UNFCCC Race-To-Zero Campaign, and through its Climate Neutrality Framework, ICLEI will seek to: (1) Ensure acknowledgement of the existing climate neutrality commitments; (2) Increase number of cities and regions that are committing to climate neutrality; (3) Encourage its members and network to consider re-assessment, recalculation or recalibration of their existing climate neutrality targets with the Science-Based-Targets Approach towards and beyond COP26 in 2021; and (4) Support monitoring progress and compliance.
