Climate action can have both positive and negative impacts on development. By assessing climate impacts with the potential socio-economic impacts of planned and implemented policies, policymakers are able to weigh potential development benefits against potential negative impacts that could result from policy implementation. In this way, climate action is more likely to be effective and durable, generate positive benefits for society, and achieve desired climate and development outcomes.
The Sustainable Development Methodology helps policymakers and other users assess multiple development and climate impacts across the environmental, social and economic dimensions.
The methodology can be used to assess a wide variety of sustainable development impacts, including:
- Environmental impacts (such as on air pollution, water quality, biodiversity and ecosystems);
- Social impacts (such as on health and well-being, welfare and equality, education and culture );
- Economic impacts (such as on employment, business opportunities, income, prices and costs).
