Anticipatory climate litigation
In the face of the climate crisis, civil society organisations and citizens are increasingly resorting to litigation to hold fossil fuel corporations accountable for their contribution to climate change. The 2021 landmark case Milieudefensie versus Royal Dutch Shell in the Netherlands was the first lawsuit in which a court ordered a carbon major to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Although the decision of the District Court was overturned in …
Making warming worlds
The Long-Term Global Goal (LTGG) is the focal point for addressing future climate change. This paper explores a specific institutional context: the Structured Expert Dialogue (SED) of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Set up as a platform for interaction between experts and UN negotiators, the SED is a site where scientific information about the LTGG and net-zero was translated into actionable targets for policymaking. We id…
Three institutional pathways to envision the future of the IPCC
Making policy-relevant knowledge in the IPCC Special Report on 1.5 degrees
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) maintains a fine balance between scientific credibility and policy-relevance. The IPCC’s review process plays an important role in ensuring that this takes place. This paper looks at the review process of the Summary for Policymakers of the Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 Degrees (SR15) published in 2018. We apply a framework for the making of policy-relevant knowledge – that of salienc…
A Global Goal for Climate Change
Climate change presents one of the biggest threats to our planet today. This essay explores the science-policy nexus of an important symbol of climate action: the long-term global temperature goal (LTGG). In particular, it examines how the scientific and political considerations that led to the strengthening of the LTGG from 2°C to 1.5°C have potential implications for the global organization of science and the place of science in politics, as we…
Exploring Global Climate Policy Futures and Their Representation in Integrated Assessment Models
The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015, paved the way for a new hybrid global climate governance architecture with both bottom-up and top-down elements. While governments can choose individual climate goals and actions, a global stocktake and a ratcheting-up mechanism have been put in place with the overall aim to ensure that collective efforts will prevent increasing adverse impacts of climate change. Integrated assessment models show that current…
Taking science by surprise
The role of the IPCC as a boundary, or hybrid organization, between science and policy has been well-documented. Much of this research focuses on the role that the IPCC has had in shaping policy outcomes, or how its limitations have potential impacts in uptake and political acceptability of its knowledge claims. Less has been said on its role as an organizer of scientific research. This paper takes the IPCC 1.5 degree Special Report (SR15), reque…
Going beyond science-policy interaction? An analysis of views among intergovernmental panel on climate change actors
Scholarly literature on science-policy interaction is typically divided between advocating that science and policy need to be brought closer together or separated. In a recent article in this journal, Sundqvist and colleagues [Sundqvist et al. (2018) Oneworld or two? Science–policy interactions in the climate field, Critical Policy Studies, 12:4, 448–468] proposed a typology that structures this debate. We use their typology to conduct a text ana…
