Changing role of international negotiations in EU climate policy / Fischer, Severin; Geden, Oliver   Article
Fischer, Severin Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract For many years, the EU pursued the strategy of ‘leading by example’ in international climate negotiations. Climate policy has generally been seen as one of the few policy fields in which the EU is able to develop coherent positions and speak with a single voice. Since the Copenhagen climate summit, however, frictions inside the EU and a paradigm shift have become increasingly evident. With the October 2014 compromise in the European Council on a new framework for 2030, the international climate negotiations have become less important and a more incremental domestic approach has prevailed.

Keeping warming within the 2 °C limit after Copenhagen / Macintosh, Andrew   Journal Article
Macintosh, Andrew Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract The object of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December 2009 was to reach an agreement on a new international legal architecture for addressing anthropogenic climate change post-2012. It failed in this endeavour, producing a political agreement in the form of the Copenhagen Accord. The Accord sets an ambitious goal of holding the increase in the global average surface temperature to below 2 °C. This paper describes 45 CO2-only mitigation scenarios that provide an indication of what would need to be done to stay within the 2 °C limit if the international climate negotiations stay on their current path. The results suggest that if developed countries adopt a combined target for 2020 of =20% below 1990 levels, global CO2 emissions would probably have to be reduced by =5%/yr, and possibly =10%/yr, post-2030 (after a decade transitional period) in order to keep warming to 2 °C. If aggressive abatement commitments for 2020 are not forthcoming from all the major emitting countries, the likelihood of warming being kept within the 2 °C limit is diminutive.
