Celebrating World Environment Day, Oxford Roadmapping (Oxon8) shared the latest findings of Net Zero Economy Dataset Visualization, revealing that the world decarbonization rate (the year-on-year carbon intensity percentage change) needs to be at 19% on average by 2050, 9% by 2030, and 10-13% by 2040, so as to meet the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement。

At the COP28, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) announced the following outcomes of the Green Digital Action:

1. Green standards： One joint statement announced by World Standards Cooperation, on the importance of sustainability being built into technical standards’ development by design to achieve net-zero. One Action Plan to environmental sustainability standards. implementation.
2. The UN Early Warnings for All (EW4all) initiative to be implemented by the ICT sector before 2027 that ensure protection for everyone, using cell broadcasts and location-based SMS (Satellite service providers are encouraged to join).
3. ICT Sector GHG emissions reduction, following the set ICT 1.5°C trajectories.
4. A project on “E-Waste Management Regulations” led by Saudi Arabia, to help the regulations in Zambia, Rwanda, and Paraguay.

Marking the roadmap and gaps of standardization, the Call to Action document is among the most important technological documents announced by the ITU at COP 28.

Oxford Roadmapping will continue its 【GDAStandard】project to release Green Digital Action toolbox for wider participation in the global efforts。

Held at the same time and site of the UN Climate Conference COP 28, the IEEE Green Tech, Sustainable Development and Net-Zero Policies and Practices 2023 was held. There, Oxford Roadmapping released the “Precision Decarbonization” Interactive Visualization prototype outcomes. The prototype shows the innovative values of using the Carbon Emission Accounting Datasets (CEADs) in the following two domains:

• Carbon management and service platform
• Carbon neutrality and its international standards and development

The outcomes will be incorporated, as a use-case, into the Green Digital Action Toolkits, to be released by Oxford Roadmapping’s free-to-use 【GDAStandard】project. It will demonstrate the usefulness of green digital action innovation and standardization for green digital transformation via platform-building.

Two conference papers by Oxford Roadmapping and its collaborators were successfully presented at the IEEE Green Tech, Sustainable Development and Net-Zero Policies and Practices 2023:

• Carbon Management and Service Platforms
• Carbon Neutrality, ISO and ITU Standards

This IEEE GTSNZ green conference （IEEE GTSNZ 2023, IEEE GreenTech, Sustainability, and Net Zero Policies & Practices Symposium） was held at the same time and site of the UN Climate Conference COP 28.

Also released at the conference during presentation was the “Precision Decarbonization” interactive infographic prototype that can be further developed into carbon management and service platform as one of the main dashboards. Demonstrating the proof-of-the-concept that combines platform and standard thinking, the prototype demonstrated the potentials of business model and technology roadmap for its use in green digital transformation development, as the core of smart digital platforms.

The collaboration work with China’s National Industrial Institute (Eco-design) was successfully submitted and presented at the 8th ITU-T FG-AI4A meeting in December 2023. The technical document, “Supply Chain Finance Linking with Carbon Accounting Data for Agriculture Business and Products” (FG-AI4A-I-132), was presented by Dr. Han-Teng Liao on December 1.

This document was the outcomes by Oxford Roadmapping and China’s National Industrial Institute (Eco-design) research and design work on Conghua conditions and carbon inclusion opportunities and the Greater Bay Area’s “Green Carbon Link” financing instruments, resulting in a pilot project called “Green Supply Chain FinTech for Digital Agriculture”. The collaboration was inspired earlier by the joint conference by the United Nations International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and Food Administration Organization (FAO) on Digital Agriculture and digital transformation for food security.

Green digital action is launched by the ITU at the UAE.

Its core document was translated by Oxford Roadmapping into Chinese: simplified, orthodox and traditional Chinese, as part of its efforts to build green digital action toolkit of the 【GDAStandard】project.

The main agenda of the six pillars of the green digital action is the momentum-creation for green standard implementation.

To reach and engage more organizations and individuals with the green digital action, Oxford Roadmapping has the following two on-going projects:

1. Project 【GDAStandard】
2. Project 【VisCEADs】

數碼化綠色化雙轉型的香港？

以數碼化綠色化雙轉型為主題，【2023世界創新城市論壇】，討論包括香港等的創新發展，協同數碼化綠色化雙轉型。

澳恪森数智科技服务Oxford Roadmapping 在此展示中國香港自2000至2022年二十多年的產業結構變化，運用包括社交網絡分析的數據可視化，指出已下行近5年的主要核心產業如“批發貿易”、“金融業”、“房地產業”、及“建築業”，要如何和近年來成長的“水運”、“公行國防社會安全”等新興核心產業，協同數碼化綠色化雙轉型？

此數據分析及可視化是根據亞洲開發銀行ADB 所提供的產業投入產出數據，含中國香港35部门的🔁投入及產出，有如“批發貿易↦水運”、“金融業↦房地產業”等具有方向性的金流數據。此數據亦含各部門的進口及出口數據，但可惜未含碳排量或強度等清單數據。未來創新、科研等需要結合產業金流及碳流數據來實撐數碼化綠色化雙轉型。
