Using dynamic relative climate impact curves to quantify the climate impact of bioenergy production systems over time
The climate impact of bioenergy is commonly quantified in terms of CO 2 equivalents, using a fixed 100‐year global warming potential as an equivalency metric. This method has been criticized for the…
In de Balans van de Leefomgeving brengt het PBL tweejaarlijks in beeld hoe de leefomgeving er in Nederland voor staat. In 2016 reflecteerden we op 20 jaar leefomgevingsbeleid en identificeerden we een…

In the past decades, the relationship between water issues and conflict risks received much attention, both in the literature and the media. However, reports and publications warning about these…
Deliverable D2.2 Nexus-relevant policies at national and regional scale
Implementation of the UNFCCC Paris agreement on climate change gets more attention from European national governments than the multi-sectoral Sustainable Development Goals. This unilateral focus may…
Global energy sector emission reductions and bioenergy use: overview of the bioenergy demand phase of the EMF-33 model comparison
We present an overview of results from 11 integrated assessment models (IAMs) that participated in the 33 rd study of the Stanford Energy Modeling Forum (EMF-33) on the viability of large-scale…
Naar een Kennisagenda voor Vermaatschappelijking van Natuur
Onder vermaatschappelijking verstaat men de beweging waarbij burgers, bedrijven en maatschappelijke organisaties meer initiatieven nemen, participeren in en/of mede verantwoordelijkheid krijgen voor…
Het ontwikkelingsbeleid staat voor grote opgaven om armoede en honger de wereld uit te krijgen. Armoedebestrijding en inclusieve ontwikkeling kunnen niet zonder waarborgen van de natuurlijke…
Energy investment needs for fulfilling the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
Low-carbon investments are necessary for driving the energy system transformation that is called for by both the Paris Agreement and Sustainable Development Goals. Improving understanding of the scale…
Reducing global GHG emissions by replicating successful sector examples: the ‘good practice policies’ scenario
This article shows the potential impact on global greenhous gas (GHG) emissions in 2030, if all countries were to implement sectoral climate policies similar to successful examples already implemented…
