September 15 – 16, 2015- Los Angeles, California<\/p>\n

The U.S. \u2013 China Climate Leaders Summit fulfills a key element of the U.S.-China Joint Announcement on Climate Change by Presidents Obama and Xi last November, and helps to ensure that the ambitious actions to address climate change that both leaders committed to will be implemented at the state and local level, where they matter most.\u00a0 The Summit also shows the determination of both countries to continually deepen and strengthen cooperation on climate change, and to engage city, state, municipal, private-sector, and NGO partners in this critical effort.<\/p>\n

The Summit will feature several outcomes, including:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. US. \u2013 China Climate Leaders Declaration to be signed by a diverse set of U.S. cities and states. The Declaration is the first of its kind between multiple community leaders from the United States and China<\/li>\n
  2. An announcement of the California-China Urban Climate Collaborative (CCUCC), a new initiative between ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the California-China Office of Trade and Investment, the Bay Area Council and the Asia Society.<\/li>\n
  3. A Memorandum of Understanding between the cities of Shenzhen, Guangdong and Los Angeles, California to share best practices and lessons learned in reducing emissions.<\/li>\n
  4. An arrangement between the China Beijing Environment Exchange, the Climate Registry, the Climate Action Reserve, and the Innovation Center for Energy and Transportation to design and implement carbon market training programs in China, and to introduce California\u2019s zero-emission vehicle credit trading mechanism in China\u2019s capital of Beijing.\u00a0 This initiative aims to equip professionals with the experience and understanding needed to create functioning carbon markets, which are critical to encouraging the deployment of clean and renewable energy sources.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    These are just a few of the summit outcomes. We hope that all these actions create momentum for the next COP21 to be held in Paris in December 2015.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
