Abstract This paper describes the scenario matrix architecture that underlies a framework for developing new scenarios climate change research. The facilitates addressing key questions related to current research and policy-making: identifying effectiveness of different adaptation mitigation strategies (in terms their costs, risks other consequences) possible trade-offs synergies. two main axes are: 1) level radiative forcing system (as characterised by representative concentration pathways)...
The Summary for Policymakers (SPM) of the Synthesis Report (SYR) Sixth Assessment (AR6) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), is a component SYR which provides policy-relevant but policy-neutral summary SYR. It consistent with Sections and approved line by Governments at plenary session Change.
The new scenario framework facilitates the coupling of multiple socioeconomic reference pathways with climate model products using representative concentration pathways. This will allow for improved assessment impacts, adaptation and mitigation. Assumptions about policy play a major role in linking futures forcing outcomes. paper presents concept shared assumptions as an important element framework. Shared capture key attributes such goals, instruments obstacles mitigation measures,...
Abstract The scientific community is developing new global, regional, and sectoral scenarios to facilitate interdisciplinary research assessment explore the range of possible future climates related physical changes that could pose risks human natural systems; how these interact with social, economic, environmental development pathways; degree which mitigation adaptation policies can avoid reduce risks; costs benefits various policy mixes; relationship climate change responses sustainable...
Global climate governance has undergone a significant transformation in the past decade. Previously it might reasonably have been characterized as system governed by UNFCCC and its Kyoto Protocol, with secondary role for national policy regimes. Since then, large array of initiatives acting across international borders joined regime, including those created subgroups governments, private sector actors various types (specific industrial sectors, institutional investors, etc.),...
The election in November 2016 of Donald Trump as a populist, nationalist and unpredictable US President has upended many aspects international relations policy, American national poli...
Climate change mitigation poses significant challenges for South Africa and its energy development, historically highly intensive. At the same time, country faces a host of daunting development challenges, exacerbated by legacy apartheid. Examining both this paper considers how alternative conceptions path can be achieved. In short term, efficiency provides large potential mitigation—and savings at time. Changing Africa's fuel mix, dependent to three-quarters on coal, is least medium-term...
