The Scientific Case for Action on Emissions

In this presentationProf Sir Brian Hoskins,  Director of the  Grantham Institute Imperial College,  gives  a summary of the essentials of climate science,  noting the scale of man-made additions to the CO2 stock in the atmosphere, the inevitable uncertainty in specific projections, and implications for future global climate. By continuing to emit greenhouse gases to the atmosphere we were performing a very dangerous experiment with planet Earth.  Possible policy responses grouped included mitigation, geo-engineering, and adaptation.  On geo-engineering, the main drawbacks were potential cost, global governance, and potential irreversibility of commitment to geo-engineering solutions.

Energy security and climate change: Conflicting or complementary energy policy objectives?

Gordon MacKerron Raphael Sauter University of Sussex SPRU     Energy security and climate change have become core energy policy objectives. Despite arising conflicts both objectives have predominantly been framed as complementary in the policy debate. In the context of energy security potential policy trade-offs have mostly been discussed in relation to market liberalisation objectives and sufficient incentives for new investments. On the other hand, climate change policies and their costs have been discussed against economic competitiveness, growth and employment while often neglecting indirect benefits. The Stern report contributed to a certain shift in this perspective by highlighting the potential societal costs if no or insufficient action against rising GHG emissions is taken. The proposed paper aims to provide a better understanding of the potential trade-offs and synergies between energy security and climate protection as core energy policy objectives. For this purpose the paper will first present a theoretical and conceptual discussion of energy security and climate change policies and their potential linkages. Particular attention will be paid to trade-offs between climate adaptation and energy security policies which has been Read more…
