Une intervention de Thomas Spencer dans le cadre d'un atelier organisé par The Energy Research Institute (ERI, Chine) et The Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES, Japon).

Présentation de l'atelier [en anglais] :

"Objectives:

  • To obtain better understandings of scientific findings regarding the 2°C goal
  • To share best practices and lessons learned from the mitigation policies on the ground in each region (Japan, China, US, and EU)
  • To provide researchers’ inputs to policy makers with regard to additional actions and policies that key countries can take in order to bridge the emissions gap at the country, region and global levels
  • To seek international collaboration for realizing the 2°C goal

Expected outcomes:

  • Draw up findings and recommendations for countries to take from the researchers’ perspectives
  • Prepare and distribute short report at the COP20 in Lima and at UNFCCC meetings in 2015."

Thomas Spencer internvient lors de la session "Current policies and additional policies towards bridging the gap" ("Current global efforts are not enough to achieve the 2°C goal. Each major emitter needs to implement additional policies to close the emissions gap. Representatives of key countries will introduce their current policies and action plans to reduce GHG emissions.").
