Wolfowitz, Paul2016-08-182016-08-182007-03-13https://hdl.handle.net/10986/24908Paul Wolfowitz, President of the World Bank, discussed how to meet the rising demand for energy while reducing our carbon footprint. Rich countries need to lead by example, renovating and replacing infrastructure and investing in clean technology. Rich countries also need to lead with direct support to developing nations, both to reduce poverty and reduce carbon emissions. Moving to a low carbon path will require investments, and a long-term equitable global regulatory framework to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Bank has been actively supporting climate-friendly solutions in four areas: efficiency and conservation, renewable energy, forest preservation, and adaptation to climate change.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOIMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGEPOWER GRIDECONOMIC GROWTHFOSSIL FUELSFOREST MANAGEMENTGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSDISTRICT HEATINGCARBONGENERATIONRESOURCE MANAGEMENTCARBON PATHWINDCLEAN ENERGYEMISSIONSREVENUESCARBON MARKETSBIOGASGREENHOUSE EMISSIONSGASETHANOLPRICECLEANEREMISSION REDUCTIONSAIRGREENHOUSE GASGAS FLARING REDUCTIONFUEL CELLSCARBON FOOTPRINTCARBON NEUTRALGENERATION CAPACITYLANDFILLSCO2OILAIR POLLUTIONDOUBLE DIVIDENDCARBON CAPTUREENERGY SOURCESSOLAR PANELSFLOODSMONEYSMALL HYDROPOWERCAPACITYCONSUMPTION OF FOSSILWATERLAND USE CHANGECARBON ECONOMYCARBON FACILITYPOLLUTIONSEA LEVELSGAS EMISSIONSCOAL RESERVESCARBON FINANCEFUELSOIL PRODUCING COUNTRIESEFFICIENCYCARBON EMISSIONSOIL PRODUCINGGASIFICATIONLAND USERESOURCESFOREST CARBONINDUSTRIAL GASESENERGY CONSUMPTIONEMISSIONACCESS TO ENERGYGREENHOUSEEFFICIENT EQUIPMENTLEADHEATCLIMATE CHANGEBIO-ENERGYCARBON TRADINGENERGY EFFICIENT EQUIPMENTUTILITIESDEMAND FOR ENERGYENERGY NEEDSPOWERELECTRICITYGAS FLARINGDEFORESTATIONCLIMATEFORESTSCHANGES IN CLIMATEHYDROPOWERFOSSIL FUELEXPENDITURESFORESTCOENVIRONMENTGLOBAL ENVIRONMENTENERGY EFFICIENCYENERGY DEMANDETHANOL PLANTTRADENATURAL GASLANDINVESTMENTCOMMERCIAL BANKSCARBON INTENSITYCONSERVATIONCOALFUELCARBON MARKETLESSCLEAN TECHNOLOGYLOW-CARBONINVESTMENTSMETHANESILVERRENEWABLE ENERGYENVIRONMENTALGASESFOSSILPOWER PLANTNEGATIVE IMPACTSECONOMIESPRODUCTION PROCESSESENERGYSpeechWorld Bank10.1596/24908
