As part of the Agreement, virtually all countries across the globe have submitted nationally determined contributions (NDCs) that set goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through 2030. Previous research has found that achieving such stringent long-term temperature goals could entail pre-mature write-downs or retirements of carbon-intensive assets, referred to as \u201cstranding\u201d of assets.<\/p>\n<p>This webinar explores the issue of stranded assets in Latin America and the Caribbean that could follow from the implementation of policies and measures under the Paris Agreement. The assessment employs the Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM), a global multi-scale, multi-sector, human-physical Earth system model with regional detail in LAC.<\/p>\n<p>The webinar will be held in <strong>English.<\/strong> If you have any questions about this event, please contact the Secretariat of the LEDS LAC Platform: <a href=\"mailto:info@ledslac.org\">info@ledslac.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>About the panelists<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>[\/fusion_text][\/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=\u00bb1_1&#8243; background_position=\u00bbleft top\u00bb background_color=\u00bb\u00bb border_size=\u00bb\u00bb border_color=\u00bb\u00bb border_style=\u00bbsolid\u00bb spacing=\u00bbyes\u00bb background_image=\u00bb\u00bb background_repeat=\u00bbno-repeat\u00bb padding=\u00bb\u00bb margin_top=\u00bb0px\u00bb margin_bottom=\u00bb0px\u00bb class=\u00bb\u00bb id=\u00bb\u00bb animation_type=\u00bb\u00bb animation_speed=\u00bb0.3&#8243; animation_direction=\u00bbleft\u00bb hide_on_mobile=\u00bbno\u00bb center_content=\u00bbno\u00bb min_height=\u00bbnone\u00bb][fusion_content_boxes settings_lvl=\u00bbparent\u00bb layout=\u00bbicon-on-side\u00bb columns=\u00bb1&#8243; icon_align=\u00bbleft\u00bb title_size=\u00bb\u00bb title_color=\u00bb\u00bb body_color=\u00bb\u00bb backgroundcolor=\u00bb\u00bb icon_circle=\u00bb\u00bb icon_circle_radius=\u00bb\u00bb iconcolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlecolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlebordercolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlebordersize=\u00bb\u00bb outercirclebordercolor=\u00bb\u00bb outercirclebordersize=\u00bb\u00bb icon_size=\u00bb\u00bb icon_hover_type=\u00bb\u00bb hover_accent_color=\u00bb\u00bb link_type=\u00bb\u00bb link_area=\u00bb\u00bb link_target=\u00bb\u00bb animation_delay=\u00bb\u00bb animation_offset=\u00bb\u00bb animation_type=\u00bb0&#8243; animation_direction=\u00bbleft\u00bb animation_speed=\u00bb0.1&#8243; margin_top=\u00bb\u00bb margin_bottom=\u00bb\u00bb class=\u00bb\u00bb id=\u00bb\u00bb][fusion_content_box title=\u00bbAdrien Vogt-Schilb\u00bb icon=\u00bb\u00bb backgroundcolor=\u00bb\u00bb iconcolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlecolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlebordercolor=\u00bb\u00bb circlebordersize=\u00bb\u00bb outercirclebordercolor=\u00bb\u00bb outercirclebordersize=\u00bb\u00bb iconrotate=\u00bb\u00bb iconspin=\u00bbno\u00bb image=\u00bbhttps:\/\/ledslac.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/id_.jpg\u00bb image_width=\u00bb130&#8243; image_height=\u00bb130&#8243; link=\u00bb\u00bb linktext=\u00bb\u00bb link_target=\u00bb_self\u00bb animation_type=\u00bb\u00bb animation_direction=\u00bb\u00bb animation_speed=\u00bb\u00bb]Adrien is a climate change economist at the Inter-American Development Bank.
