FROM EVIDENCE TO ACTION
GINZBURG CLIMATE is a planetary system of climate knowledge, observations, evidence, risks, solutions and practical action.
OBSERVATION → DATA → PHYSICAL PROCESS → HAZARD → EXPOSURE → VULNERABILITY → RISK → SOLUTION → DELIVERY → MEASUREMENT → INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION → ADAPTATION
CURRENT STATE · LAST CHECKED 23 AUGUST 2026
THE CLIMATE SYSTEM IS MEASURED, MODELLED AND STILL CHANGING

Interpretation boundary: a single year above a temperature threshold is not identical to the Paris Agreement’s long-term temperature goal. Every figure must retain its baseline, period, method, uncertainty and source version.

SYSTEM LAYERMRV & INTEGRITY
Methods, validation, verification, registries, issuance, custody, retirement, ratings and grievance.
SYSTEM LAYERCARBON POLICY & MARKETS
ETS, taxes, Article 6 and voluntary markets with claims and accounting boundaries.
SYSTEM LAYERBUYERS & OFFTAKE
Who pays, for what result, under which contract, with which delivery risk and public claim.
SYSTEM LAYERCLIMATE FINANCE
MDBs, DFIs, grants, debt, equity, guarantees, insurance, blended and resilience finance.

PLACE, RISK, INFRASTRUCTURE AND RESPONSIBILITY
Territorial passports
Country, administration, basin, coast, island, city, mountain and polar territory — linked without creating empty pages.
Infrastructure
Energy, water, food, health, transport, communications and critical operators, each with time-specific risk evidence.
Regional climate information
Baseline, resolution, method, scenario, confidence, limitations and review date remain attached to every result.

Observation ≠ model
Measurements, reanalysis, models, scenarios, forecasts, hypotheses and expert assessments are labelled separately.
Claim ≠ verified result
Corporate statements, captured tonnes, gross removal, net removal, issued units, retired units and paid invoices are not interchangeable.
Source passport
Source → date → method → rights → uncertainty → independent verification → status → permitted use.
