Calling attention to sustainable infrastructure


The 2016 Global Commission report, The Sustainable Infrastructure Imperative, was launched at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) in Washington DC in October by six of our Global Commissioners and the IDB President. Since then, a number of country launches have been hosted by our Global Commissioners or commissioning countries: in Mexico, by President Felipe Calderón and the Fundación Desarrollo Humano Sustentable; in Korea, by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Climate Change Center; in India by Nicholas Stern, Naina Lal Kidwai, and ICRIER; and in Norway by the Norwegian and Colombian Ministers for Environment, with participation by Sharan Burrow, Kristin Skogen Lund and Christian Rynning-Tønnesen.
October also saw the most online posts about sustainable infrastructure of any month since records began, according to social media analysis by the New Climate Economy using the online monitoring tool Crimson Hexagon. The following month was also higher than average.
