Climate and Cle an Te ch: Give n the gre at importance of te chnology to addre s s e nvironme ntal challe nge s and conne cte d market opportunitie s , the Climate and Clean Tech working group is tasked to identify opportunities to support transatlantic trade and investment in low-and zero-carbon technologies, products and services, including collaboration in third countries , research and innovation and to engage in dialogue on the policies and framework conditions needed to promote wide deployment of these technologies and to jointly explore the methodologies, tools, and technologies for calculating embedded GHG emissions in global trade including methodologies for calculating the net environmental impact of digitally enabled solutions

In March 2019, as the president of the 4th Session of the UN Environment Assembly Estonia led the adoption of a ministerial declaration whereby countries all over the world agreed to create a global environmental data strategy for 2025. The strategy foresees the development of common data standardsand increasing the quality of environmental data. It also aims to foster cross-border data sharing and interoperability, improve countries’ environmental monitoring capacities and improve data analysis methods

To support this process, Estonia islaunchinga global alliance, Data for the Environment Alliance –or DEALfor short –that would bring together countries interested in improving the quality and accessibility of environmental data and developing digital solutions.Since environmental problems are crossingnational borders, we should do away with all borders when using environmental data. The DEAL will launch during the 5thUnited Nations Environment Assembly in February 2022.

i need to emphasize that we needmechanisms for financingso that countries can have accessto and make progress with sustainabledevelopment and protection of theenvironment

There is a need to make greater use of innovative technologies for the prudent and sustainable use of natural resources. Latvia continues to expand its experience of sustainable forest management using digital technologies.
