Climate change and SEEA A strategic perspective

Introduction 2009 UNSC considered a programme review on climate change and official statistics, prepared by the ABS The review made 13 recommendations, which were in large part accepted by UNSC Many of the recommendations are relevant to SEEA/UNCEEA

#1 Ensure that relevant statistical standards and classifications give proper attention to climate change issues, with particular focus on land use/land cover and energy statistics LU/LC classifications one of the SEEA Vol 1 issues –Ecosystem approach proposed for Vol 2 also relevant IRES/SEEA-E

#2 Strengthen the role of greenhouse gas inventories and improve the quality of greenhouse gas emission statistics as part of official statistics Emission accounts are an integral part of SEEA Vol 1

#3 Develop new statistics and share best practice on advanced analysis of existing statistics to support mitigation mechanisms and measures SEEA provides a wealth of information to support mitigation mechanisms and measures Vol 3 will provide information on what is possible from a policy perspective

#4 Ensure that key macroeconomic statistics take account of the implications of emission trading schemes and other mitigation measures The treatment of emission permits is one of the key issues for Vol 1. –An objective is to harmonise with the SNA

#5 Develop and further implement SEEA with a focus on its application to support climate- change related analysis This should be a key aspect of SEEA implementation as well as its development

#6 Share best practices on the statistical analysis of the impacts and vulnerability to climate change Vol 3 will play a key part in this. The ecosystem approach for Vol 2 will provide new information sets to support analysis of the impacts and vulnerability to climate change

#7 Improve and promote the use of GISs and other spatial infrastructure for the climate change-related spatial analysis of statistics SEEA can be applied at different geographical scales Small area information could be integrated with GISs to enhance spatial analysis

#8 Develop a framework for climate change-related statistics SEEA/FDES can provide this framework

#9 Promote the use of indicators at the national level and provide statistical expertise for indicator development SEEA will be a good source of indicators

#10 Advocate the use of official statistics in climate change-related policies Vol 3 will support this Such advocacy should be part of a broader effort to seek support for SEEA, including its implementation

#11 Support the estimation of macroeconomic impacts of climate change, mitigation and adaption SEEA, particularly the energy, forests, emission and land components, has a significant role in supporting such analysis

#12 Initiate a dialogue with the IPCC on the use of official statistics for scenario development and modelling in future assessments of climate change The usefulness of SEEA for this purpose should be a key part of any such dialogue

#13 Expand the mandate and membership of UNCEEA to provide oversight of international statistical activities related to climate change This recommendation was not accepted by UNSC, but UNSC has re-affirmed the role of UNCEEA in regard to the economic-environmental accounting aspects of official statistics related to climate change
