Een studie, gepubliceerd door het PBL Planbureau voor de Leefomgeving en het NewClimate Institute, analyseert de gevolgen van de COVID-19-pandemie en bijbehorende herstelmaatregelen op de mondiale uitstootprojecties van broeikasgassen tot 2030, en op de noodzakelijke mondiale...
Mondiale milieurapportages spelen een belangrijke rol bij de ontwikkeling van milieubeleid. Ze bieden inzicht in de oorzaken en gevolgen van milieuvraagstukken, alsmede mogelijke oplossingen, op basis van voortschrijdende wetenschappelijke kennis. Om ook in de toekomst hun...
In de beleidsbrief ‘Van coronacrisis naar duurzaam herstel’ draagt PBL suggesties en voorbeelden aan om met het herstelbeleid de hardnekkige problemen met gevolgen voor de kwaliteit van de leefomgeving aan te pakken. Voorbeelden daarvan zijn de uitstoot van broeikasgassen,...
Many countries have implemented national climate policies to accomplish pledged Nationally Determined Contributions and to contribute to the temperature objectives of the Paris Agreement on climate change. In 2023, the global stocktake will assess the combined effort of...
This paper in the Spring 2020 ifo DICE Report on carbon pricing discusses lessons that other regions could learn from European Union’s effort to implement carbon pricing through EU Emission Trading System (EU ETS).
Effective climate policy requires information from various scientific disciplines. Here, we construct a metamodel from climate and integrated assessment models that assesses the emissions budget, costs and uncertainty sources of achieving temperature targets. By calibrating...
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) address food and nutrition security with goal number two. Food and nutrition security is a complicated issue, and understanding its future requires insights into (i) food availability, (ii) food access, (iii) food utilisation, and (iv)...
New synthesis shows what a wasted decade means for the climate pact made in Paris. New research shows that nations must now do much more and much faster to limit global warming to well below 2 °C, let alone 1.5 °C, as agreed in Paris.
This study investigates the progress of current mitigation actions undertaken by major emitting economies worldwide. It provides an in-depth analysis of the projected impact of currently implemented policies and compares this to the targets set by the countries in their...
The aim of this article is to provide an overview of greenhouse gas emission reduction potentials for 2030 based on the assessment of detailed sectoral studies. The overview updates a previous assessment that dates back more than ten years. We find a total emission reduction...
