Environmental policy and modelling in evolutionary economics
Evolutionary economics is a systems approach, where activities at the micro-level lead to macro-level changes. Such tools are especially useful for the assessment of environmental policies, which are…
From Climate objectives to emissions reduction. Insights into the opportunities for mitigating climate change
Required reductions for reaching low greenhouse gas stabilisation levels are technically feasible at likely range of direct costs in the order of 1-2% of GDP, but this will require immediate action, a…
Stabilising greenhouse gas concentrations at low levels: an assessment of options and costs
The EU target of limiting global temperature increase to 2 degrees Celcius can only be achieved with high certainty when greenhouse gas concentrations stabilise at low levels. Required emission…
Global greenhouse gas emissions increased 75% since 1970
Recent research by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, in collaboration with the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the EU in Ispra, showed that global emissions of the six Kyoto greenhouse…
Integrated Development and Climate Policies: how to realise benefits at national and international level?
Development efforts will be seriously hampered by the risks of climate change if these are not tackled. Reduced economic growth due to climate change damages, threatened or under-performing…
