Consistent reporting and tracking of climate action are critical to meeting local, regional, national and global climate targets. However, tracking systems, where they exist, are rarely integrated.

Consistent reporting and tracking of climate action are critical to meeting local, regional, national and global climate targets. However, tracking systems, where they exist, are rarely integrated. This sort of parallel tracking makes it difficult to get a clear picture of climate action above the local level, as a way to inform more targeted policy and action.
Local and regional governments can report their climate data through the ICLEI and CDP unified reporting system to monitor climate mitigation and adaptation commitments, plans, actions, and performance.
The carbonn® Center supports cities, towns, and regions by developing robust reporting practices that enhance transparency, accountability and credibility, encouraging measurable, reportable and verifiable (MRV) local climate action.

ecoBUDGET, developed by ICLEI for and with local authorities, is founded on the concept that our natural resources, such as air, potable water, biodiversity, etc. can and should be managed with the same level of care and preciseness as our financial resources.
The tool enables environmental values to be budgeted in the same way a local authority would construct a financial budget. Through the creation of an environmental “Master Budget” local authorities can keep track of, and set goals for, their scarce natural resources in the coming years.
