Land-based measures to mitigate climate change: Potential and feasibility by country
Land-based climate mitigation measures have gained significant attention and importance in public and private sector climate policies. Building on previous studies, we refine and update the mitigation…
Greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios for major emitting countries
This report by NewClimate Institute, PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) provides an overview of projected greenhouse…
The impact of land-use change emissions on the potential of bioenergy as climate change mitigation option for a Brazilian low-carbon energy system
Land-use change (LUC)-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions determine largely whether bioenergy is a suitable option for climate change mitigation. This study assesses how LUC emissions influence…
A review of studies assessing ecosystem services provided by urban green and blue infrastructure
Nature in cities is increasingly recognized for its potential to address urban sustainability challenges (e.g., climate change, public health issues). However, the knowledge base to actually quantify…
Short-to medium-run forecasting of mobility with dynamic linear models
This paper shows how short- to medium-term forecasts of mobility can be used to inform long-term projections based on annual data. This will be a challenging task for statistical offices generating…
Regional energy diversity and sovereignty in different 2 °C and 1.5 °C pathways
Achieving the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement requires a fast transition of the energy system. This leads to consequences for energy security, which a central element of the energy strategy…
Transitioning to Low-Carbon Economies under the 2030 Agenda: Minimizing Trade-Offs and Enhancing Co-Benefits of Climate-Change Action for the SDGs
The 2030 Agenda with its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement on climate change were adopted in 2015. Although independently defined, the two agreements are strongly…
Scenarios for exposure of aquatic organisms to plant protection products in the Netherlands
The current Dutch authorisation procedure for calculating the exposure of aquatic organisms to plant protection products needs to be revised. For this reason, a new exposure assessment methodology for…
This publication is a background report to the IFAD Rural Development Report 2021 on Food System Transformations . The IFAD report is published in preparation of the UN Food System Summit, taking…
Fuel tankering in relation to a Dutch CO2 ceiling for aviation
In order to reduce CO 2 emissions from international aviation, the Dutch Government is considering the introduction of a CO 2 emission ceiling for all flights departing from Dutch airports. This…
