THE BIG CLIMATE STORY OUTSIDE THE REGION- Current Nationally Determined <\/strong>Contribution (NDC) plans will make the world fall very short on climate targets<\/strong>, according to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change\u2019s (UNFCCC) annual report (pdf)<\/a>. In their current form, NDC plans would see emissions fall by a meager 2.6% compared to 2019 by 2030, far off the 43% reduction to pre-2019 levels that are needed to keep global temperature rise to 1.5\u00b0C. <\/p>\n

A radical shift is needed\u2026:<\/strong> The report shows the critical need for countries to develop bolder climate plans by next year. These plans should include comprehensive emissions targets, sector-specific strategies, and credible regulations to ensure effective implementation. But NDCs are being leveraged as a \u201cnegotiating mechanism,\u201d said Pablo Viera, who leads NDC Partnership, an NGO that advises countries on climate policies. \u201cMore money for more ambition.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2026or else we\u2019re headed for disaster:<\/strong> \u201cGreenhouse gas pollution at these levels will guarantee a human and economic trainwreck for every country, without exception,\u201d said UNFCCC Executive Secretary Simon Stiell. \u201cEvery fraction of a degree matters as climate disasters get rapidly worse.\u201d At the current rate, the world may hit a 2.8\u00b0C rise in temperatures, according to the report. <\/p>\n

The story made headlines in the international press:<\/strong> Reuters<\/a> | Bloomberg<\/a> | Al Jazeera<\/a> | BBC<\/a> <\/p>\n

HAPPENING THIS WEEK-<\/p>\n

Saudi Arabia will host the <\/strong>Future Investment Initiative Conference<\/a><\/strong> from tomorrow<\/strong> until this Thursday, 31 October<\/strong> in Riyadh.

WATCH THIS SPACE-<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/a>#1- Egypt\u2019s Alkan + BAIC to set up EV factory: <\/strong>Alkan Holdings subsidiary Egyptian International Motors and China\u2019s state-owned auto manufacturer BAIC Group will set up an EV assembly plant in Egypt with a production capacity of 50k cars annually using 58% localized components, according to a statement<\/a>. <\/p>\n

More on the plant: <\/strong>The EV plant will begin production by late 2025 with 20k cars expected to be produced in the first year. Annual production volumes will hit 50k cars by the end of its fifth year. The companies are also planning to gradually increase the factory\u2019s local component ratio from 48% to 58% over an unspecified time frame.<\/p>\n

Talks to get EV assembly in Egypt off the ground have been ongoing for years:<\/strong> Al Nasr Automotive danced with auto giant Dongfeng back in 2019<\/a>, only to pull out more than two years later<\/a> over disagreements on imported components\u2019 prices. In 2022, unconfirmed press reports suggested<\/a> that an Al-Nasr-BAIC joint assembly factory could be in the pipeline. <\/p>\n

Remember<\/strong>:<\/strong> The Madbouly government has been working to localize the auto industry, introducing the Egyptian Automotive Industry Development Program (AIDP)<\/a> in 2022, which offers incentives to auto players to localize the sector and its feeder industries and encourage new investment in the sector.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/a>#2- Oman\u2019s OQ E&P shares drop on debut:<\/strong> Oman\u2019s energy company OQ Exploration & Production shares closed down 8.2% on its first day of trading on the Muscat Stock Exchange, according to market data. The company\u2019s shares fell to an intra-day low of OMR 0.36 per share, 9% below the OMR 0.39 offer price. The flopped debut is a rare instance in the Middle East IPO market of a company\u2019s shares declining on the first day of trading, Bloomberg<\/a> notes. The decline could be partially due to a global dip in crude prices, which dropped over 5% as Israeli strikes avoided Iran\u2019s oil facilities. <\/p>\n

<\/a>#3- <\/strong>Ocean freight carbon emissions reach record high in 3Q 2024: <\/strong>Global ocean container carbon emissions hit record highs in 3Q 2024 due to the ongoing Red Sea conflict, rising freight rates, and congestion across shipping routes, according to freight rate analytics platform Xeneta<\/a>. Carbon emissions for the top 13 ocean trades reached a record of 107.9 points, a 12.2% increase from the same period last year. This marks the highest emissions level recorded and only the second time the index surpassed 100 since its 1Q 2018 baseline, indicating higher emissions per tonne of cargo.<\/p>\n

IN OTHER GREEN FREIGHT NEWS-<\/strong> Zero carbon ammonia continues to face safety hurdles and cost challenges <\/strong>compared to alternative shipping fuels<\/strong>, such as menthol, biofuels, and LNG, Reuters<\/a> reports. Ammonia\u2019s major selling point is that it is zero-carbon, making it a zero-emission fuel when made from green hydrogen.<\/p>\n

In the pipeline: <\/strong>The first cargo ships powered by ammonia are set to enter service in 2026. The industry is gearing up for this, with the first transfer of ammonia from one ship to another safely completed last month in Western Australia, the newswire says.<\/p>\n


So what\u2019s the worry?<\/strong> \u201cThe lack of regulation, use experience, and toxicity of ammonia on board ships constitute major safety deterrents,\u201d mining giant Rio Tinto head of commercial operations Laure Baratgin told the newswire. Refueling vessels with ammonia has the potential to cause acute poisoning and damage to exposed organs, with the greatest risk posed by leakage during bunkering operations, the newswire explains.<\/p>\n

High costs:<\/strong> For ammonia bunkering to be competitive, its associated costs will have to fall significantly, as powering ammonia-fuelled vessels can cost up to two to four times more than conventional fuels. Ships operating on ammonia engines will also rack up extra maintenance costs, as the fuel is corrosive. <\/p>\n

The orderbook:<\/strong> Some 25 ammonia dual-fuel vessels have been ordered as of 2024, with shippers still hesitant due to safety risks. This pales in comparison to at least 722 LNG-fueled vessels and 62 methanol-fuelled vessels on order as of 2024.<\/p>\n

#4-<\/strong> Morgan <\/strong>Stanley \u201csoftens\u201d climate lending goals: <\/strong>Morgan Stanley has lowered its climate targets for its corporate lending portfolio, adopting a flexible global warming cap between 1.5-1.7\u00b0C, rather than a strict 1.5\u00b0C, Chief Sustainability Officer Jessica Alsford told Reuters<\/a>. The adjustment reflects slow progress towards a greener economy, hindered by factors such as sluggish EV sales and energy policy challenges, with the bank planning to emphasize the need for realistic targets, said Alsford. <\/p>\n

The new plan: <\/strong>The bank has set new emissions reduction targets for six sectors: Energy, power, automotives, chemicals, mining, and aviation, with a new baseline year set for 2022 instead of 2019 for better data accuracy. By 2030, the new targets aim for a 45-60% emission reduction for the power sector across its portfolio, 29-45% for auto, 13-24% for aviation, 18-28% for chemicals, and 23-31% for mining. <\/p>\n

DANGER ZONE- <\/p>\n

US <\/strong>communities threatened by intensifying wildfires: <\/strong>Fast-moving wildfires have been responsible for nearly 80% of US home and structure destruction due to fires over the past two decades, according to a new study<\/a> published in the journal Science. The study found that from 2001 to 2020, the growth rate of these wildfires \u2014 those that burn over 4k acres in a single day \u2014 rose by 249% in the western US, threatening nearly 1.8 mn structures nationwide.<\/p>\n

The damage is immense:<\/strong> These fires have destroyed over 80.7k structures and inflicted USD 18.9 bn in firefighting costs. Climate change is intensifying the speed of these fires, with hotter, drier conditions and strong winds fueling their spread, as seen in devastating incidents like Colorado's 2021 Marshall Fire and Hawaii's 2023 Lahaina Fire, Bloomberg<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

How can communities prepare themselves?<\/strong> There must be a shift in focus from fire size to speed for communities to prepare for rapid fire spread, the study\u2019s lead author Jennifer Balch told Bloomberg. Suggested protective measures include fireproofing homes, clearing vegetation, and establishing ember-resistant zones to help mitigate the impact of fast-moving wildfires. Such measures are being incorporated into housing codes and could help firefighters shift focus to fighting wildfire blazes instead of evacuating homes. <\/p>\n
