Abstract:
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of modern society. From the first studies at the end of the 19th century up to the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic, it has been increasingly clear that global warming will influence our way of life from a social, economic and financial point of view. The studies carried out during the recent years clearly demonstrate the dangers and costs of a possible lack of action to limit CO2 emissions into the atmosphere and, in the same way, show the benefits that would result, in the long term, from the halving of emissions. In this context, the Par

Abstract:
As the impacts of climate change are accelerated, due to continued emissions generating activities of industrialised nations, there is an increasing need for revised policies and climate change mitigation programs. The latter is, however, out of reach to vulnerable economies which are financially unequipped to afford such programs. In view of this, most turn towards debt financing, which can pose a risk to their economies in the long term as critical urban assets are used as collaterals; leading to unsustainable debt levels, posing a risk to the liveability of cities.

This thesis investigates the emergence of the long-term climate target to hold the increase in global average temperature below two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. This ‘two degrees target’ is shown to be the product of efforts to embed climate science, ‘cost-effective’ GHG control, and national sovereignty in a long-term climate goal, and that it became a foundation for work to align the financial sector with the transition to a lowcarbon economy. This thesis investigates how this target envisages an apparently simple and manageable future for addressing climate change, and comes

Technically, green and vanilla bonds, if issued by the same issuer, share the same characteristics (besides the green use of proceeds) and therefore, should be priced the same (or similarly) in the primary market.

In the literature, some studies argue that affluence and the financial sector encourages low-carbon investments which result in lower emissions while others find that they enhance emissions.
