标准2025温室气体（GHG）是造成气候变化的首要原因，管理好温室气体对于帮助我们适应其后果尤为重要。为解决这一问题，在国际、区域和地方层面正在制定标准，以限制大气中温室气体的浓度。未来，ISO 14080将会帮助政府和企业开展可行的、透明的、目标一致的气候行动。
正在制定中的新的国际标准旨在为所有参与气候行动的组织提供一个框架，旨在制定一个应对气候变化的一致的、可比较的和改进的方法。ISO 14080 温室气体治理及相关举措——气候行动策略框架和原则将会针对如何有效的缓解和适应活动提供指南，为参与到遏制气候变化的利益相关方提供更多的经济和其他方面的资源。
该项标准目前还处于国际标准草案阶段（DIS），未来这项标准将为气候行动策略、复审和管理提供一个通用框架。该项标准明确了设计策略发展框架的原则，这些策略吸收了主流的气候变化应对策略，以及联合国2030年可持续发展议程提出的17个可持续发展目标（SDGs）和巴黎协定。该项标准还提供了一个方法概要实例，，可用来与利益相关方交流，以协调各方行动，鼓励气候相关信息如金融信息的公开。
ISO 14080可以帮助非官方团体、产业协会和各温室气体项目（GHG）证明，气候行动可以促进低碳社会和治理适应策略。
ISO 14080将有助于各个组织实现对巴黎协定和全球气候行动议程的承诺。ISO 14080标准将2018年发布。
New ISO standard for climate action framework under development
Greenhouse gases (GHG) are identified as the principal cause of climate change and managing them is crucial to help us adapt to its consequences. To address the issue, initiatives are being developed on an international, regional, national and local scale to limit GHG concentrations in the Earth’s atmosphere. Future ISO 14080 will help government and industry put together credible, transparent and consistent climate action.
A new International Standard under development is intended to give all organizations involved in climate action a framework for the development of consistent, comparable and improved methodologies in the fight against climate change. ISO 14080, Greenhouse gas management and related activities – Framework and principles for methodologies on climate actions, will provide guidance on how to create effective mitigation and adaptation activities while giving stakeholders enhanced access to financial and other resources needed to combat climate change.
The future standard, which is currently at the Draft International Standard (DIS) stage, provides a generic framework for the development of climate action methodologies and their review and management over time. It specifies principles for designing a framework and guideline to establish methodologies that take into account prevailing climate change policies as well as the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement. The standard also provides examples of a methodology profile, which can be used for communication with relevant stakeholders to harmonize aggregated actions and encourage the disclosure of climate-related information, including financially relevant information.
ISO 14080 can help non-state actors, initiatives, industry associations and GHG programmes demonstrate that climate action can contribute to a low-carbon society and adaptation strategies with governance.
ISO 14080 will help organizations meet their commitment to the Paris Agreement and global climate action agenda. Publication is expected in 2018.
