6.3. Climate impact assessment and reporting

Espoo’s climate efforts will be examined as a whole and the adequacy of measures will be assessed in relation to the carbon neutrality goal.

A roadmap for combating climate change is being drawn up for the city; the roadmap describes the cooperation between the City of Espoo and its partners and residents to achieve the carbon neutrality goal. Espoo is also party to international climate agreements, such as the Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy, in the context of which Espoo reports on its climate work internationally. It is also important for Espoo to explore whether the remaining 20% share of the city’s 80% emission reduction target can be absorbed by carbon sinks or compensated for by other means.
