00:00:00.350 --> 00:00:03.897
BII Guidance five screens climate opportunities.

2
00:00:03.897 --> 00:00:10.990
A single project can receive multiple flags: mitigation, adaptation, transition, or an

3
00:00:10.990 --> 00:00:12.172
adjacent opportunity.

4
00:00:13.183 --> 00:00:16.788
Mitigation asks for quantifiable emissions benefits.

5
00:00:16.788 --> 00:00:23.397
Adaptation asks whether the project addresses physical vulnerability or improves resilience.

6
00:00:23.397 --> 00:00:25.800
Assess each benefit separately.

7
00:00:26.808 --> 00:00:32.916
Imagine fictional CoastalFoods financing solar powered cold storage with flood protection.

8
00:00:32.916 --> 00:00:39.025
Assumed emissions savings support a potential mitigation flag; reduced flood vulnerability

9
00:00:39.025 --> 00:00:40.135
supports adaptation.

10
00:00:41.142 --> 00:00:44.414
Still check transition and adjacent opportunities.

11
00:00:44.414 --> 00:00:49.867
Transition needs relevant decarbonisation or a credible, time bound plan.

12
00:00:49.867 --> 00:00:53.139
Do not assign every flag automatically.

13
00:00:54.142 --> 00:00:58.308
Collect evidence for each claimed benefit and assess confidence.

14
00:00:58.308 --> 00:01:01.085
Record gaps and who reviews them.

15
00:01:01.085 --> 00:01:05.714
These flags support further assessment; they do not approve financing.
