• Achieving a low-carbon society is fundamentally a question of re- directing investment to more energy efficient and having lower carbon intensity technologies, techniques and infrastructure. carbon intensity technologies, techniques and infrastructure. • Embedded Investment: will affect carbon intensity for decades – every investment made without considering carbon intensity a every investment made without considering carbon intensity a missed opportunity. • • Investment path shift: focus beyond incremental improvements, to Investment path shift: focus beyond incremental improvements, to the timescale and the size of change required

• Low carbon intensive sector untapped: – need to direct investment in both high and low carbon intensive – need to direct investment in both high and low carbon intensive industries - wider range of low cost measures in the latter • • Range of Interventions: Range of Interventions: – basic information, – logistical and financial innovations to maximise the cumulative potential of individual actions, potential of individual actions, – regulation and programme based approaches to carbon finance when these are appropriate. – Carbon pricing – Carbon pricing • Frequent mismatches in companies between contribution to carbon emissions and associated carbon production costs emissions and associated carbon production costs – Carbon pricing capable of addressing mismatches, but not in appropriate time scale – Carbon management at appropriate scale and time requires – Carbon management at appropriate scale and time requires measures to accompany entry of emissions trading.

• • Reduction opportunities frequently less expensive on a per tonne Reduction opportunities frequently less expensive on a per tonne basis in the developing world. – International cooperation to facilitate appropriate measures that – International cooperation to facilitate appropriate measures that encourage scaling up of investment. – Cooperation to extract these reductions increase global benefits. • Delaying the implementation of actions on a domestic and global perspective – Significantly increase costs of achieving a low-carbon society, – Measures implemented in a shorter and more expensive timeframe, timeframe, – Costs currently not associated with Climate Change impacts increments.
