Co-producing transformative visions for Europe in 2100: A multi-scale approach to orientate transformations under climate change
Three Scenario Narratives for a Resource-Efficient and Low-Carbon Europe in 2050
Advancing the use of scenarios to understand society’s capacity to achieve the 1.5 degree target
Positive tipping points in a rapidly warming world
The challenge of meeting the UNFCCC CoP21 goal of keeping global warming ‘well below 2 °C and to pursue efforts towards 1.5 °C’ (‘the 2–1.5 °C target’) calls for research efforts to better understand the opportunities and constraints for fundamental transformations in global systems dynamics which currently drive the unsustainable and inequitable use of the Earth's resources. To this end, this research reviews and introduces the notion of positiv…
A resource-efficient and sufficient future mobility system for improved well-being in Europe
A transformation of our current transport system and individual mobility behaviour is an essential pre-requisite for attaining a desirable future that enables a life within environmental boundaries (“safe operating space”) and higher well-being at the same time. Accordingly, this paper focuses on the potentials of a resource-saving, sustainable transport system with reduced, but still satisfactory, mobility. To achieve the vision of resource-effi…
Living within the safe operating space: A vision for a resource efficient Europe
A desirable future critically depends on our ability to ensure the supply of key resources while simultaneously respecting planetary boundaries. This paper looks at the potential implications of living within the “safe operating space” for people, business and the economy. It develops a positive vision of the future based on three pillars: a safe and fair use of global resources, a sustainable society, and a transformed economy. We review and bui…
Opening up knowledge systems for better responses to global environmental change
Linking knowledge with action for effective societal responses to persistent problems of unsustainability requires transformed, more open knowledge systems. Drawing on a broad range of academic and practitioner experience, we outline a vision for the coordination and organization of knowledge systems that are better suited to the complex challenges of sustainability than the ones currently in place. This transformation includes inter alia: societ…
Responses to environmental and societal challenges for our unstable earth
Environment, Forced Migration and Social Vulnerability
Environment, forced migration and social vulnerability
This book examines the linkages between environmental change and forced migration. This has been a headline topic during the past few years with predictions of “millions of refugees”. It presents case studies from across the world of responses to climate change as well as other environmental changes and examines the role that environmental change plays among the other factors that lead to a decision to migrate
Le projet Each-FOR
La plupart des études de cas présentées dans ce dossier ont été réalisées dans le cadre du projet EACH-FOR (Environmental Change and Forced Migration Scenarios, www.each-for.eu). Ce projet a été financé par la Commission européenne entre 2007 et 2009 et a été réalisé par sept instituts de recherche européens. Le projet visait à documenter, de manière empirique, la façon dont les dégradations de l’environnement pouvaient influer sur les comporteme…
Climate change as a threat to biodiversity: An application of the DPSIR approach
Handbook of Transdisciplinary Research
Global Change and the Earth System: A Planet Under Pressure
Salience, Credibility, Legitimacy and Boundaries: Linking Research, Assessment and Decision Making
The boundary between science and policy is only one of several boundaries that hinder the linking of scientific and technical information to decision making. Managing boundaries between disciplines, across scales of geography and jurisdiction, and between different forms of knowledge is also often critical to transferring information. The research presented in this paper finds that information requires three (not mutually exclusive) attributes - …
Knowledge systems for sustainable development
The challenge of meeting human development needs while protecting the earth's life support systems confronts scientists, technologists, policy makers, and communities from local to global levels. Many believe that science and technology (S&T) must play a more central role in sustainable development, yet little systematic scholarship exists on how to create institutions that effectively harness S&T for sustainability. This study suggests that effo…
Sustainability Science
Meeting fundamental human needs while preserving Earth's life support systems will require an accelerated transition toward sustainability. A new field of sustainability science is emerging that seeks to understand the fundamental character of interactions between nature and society and to encourage those interactions along more sustainable trajectories. Such an integrated, place-based science will require new research strategies and institutiona…
