Swiss Experience with Future Earth  Future Earth is a very essential next step in Global Change research  The Swiss academies stand behind Future Earth  The science community needs time to adjust to the new mode of research

What can science contribute to the challenges? To much emphasis so far on Systems Knowledge Source: Visions by Swiss Researchers, ProClim 1997

What can science contribute to the challenges? To much emphasis so far on Systems Knowledge Source: Visions by Swiss Researchers, ProClim 1997 Not possible without Stakeholder involvement

Swiss Experience with Future Earth The place based and the systems centered research community were not able to collaborate in joint projects

Knowledge alone does not lead to action Source: Visions by Swiss Researchers, ProClim 1997 Many different stakeholder group must act

Example: Climate Change Mitigation

Germany: 50% Effect on CO2-Emissions: -20% replacing coal by gas in Germany +20% replacing Nuclear by Gas in Switzerland

Example: Climate Change Mitigation Source: ESC/ETH 2011 World and Switzerland follow similar trends, but there are large differences behind the similar trends => Needs nationally differentiated research partnerships with stakeholders

Climate Mitigation is a challenge Future Earth is far more challenging Future Earth adds many additional challenges: Climate Change is only one pice in the puzzle:  Biodiversity  depletion of resources  Many different political constraints Unemployment Economic competitiveness Regional and sectoral needs and pressures  ……

Activities along the Future Earth spirit by the Swiss Academies (Example ProClim since 1993) Many projects supporting federal agencies IPCC Contact to the research community An equivalent of 4 full time scientists are employed by ProClim

Activities along the Future Earth spirit by the Swiss Academies Similar approaches for the other partner organization Swiss Biodiversity Forum Kommission for Research Partnership with developing countries Transdisciplinary Network Network for Alpine Research 1 to 3 full time scientific employees each

Plans to stimulate cooperation with Future Earth projects  Sponsorship of core project offices of special relevance for the Swiss science community  Encouragement and Advertisement of Future Earth Within the Science Community and Federal Agencies Need:  Clear labeling of core projects and their events with Future Earth (we advertise only Future Earth labeled Events outside Switzerland)
