Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Introduction Triptych 1997: How should the EU Kyoto target of -8% / -15% be shared among the individual member states? All countries reduce the same at -8% / -15%? Not acceptable due to different national conditions and development stage All countries do the same: increase efficiency, reduce fossil fuels in electricity production and converge in domestic emissions. Triptych was developed to calculate the respective emission allowances Values served as the basis for the negotiations within the EU.

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Conclusions Most sophisticated approach to share emission allowances Can be applied to any group of countries (here globally) For stabilization at 450 ppmvCO 2 applied globally: –Substantial reduction requirements for the industrialised countries, especially those more inefficient or slower growing –Substantial emission increases are allowed for most developing countries, however, mostly below their reference scenarios Weaknesses: –Rather complex and requires many separate decisions –Requires much data –Modelling requires many assumptions, including projections of production growth rates for heavy industry and electricity Strengths: –Can accommodate national circumstances through sectoral detail –Explicitly allows for economic growth and improving efficiency –Successfully applied (on EU level) as a basis for negotiating targets

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity UNFCCC Climate Change Convention Ultimate objective : Stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Principles: The Parties should protect the climate system on the basis of equity and in accordance with their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities. Accordingly, the developed country Parties should take the lead in combating climate change and the adverse effects thereof.

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Characteristics of Common but differentiated convergence Common: all countries eventually converge to the same per capita emission level Differentiated: countries follow these common trajectories delayed Conditional: Non-Annex I countries mitigation actions are explicitly linked to Annex I actions (world GHG/cap average) Without excess emissions: only countries participate that need to reduce emissions Efficient: developing countries reductions are encouraged through the positively binding targets. Emission trading possible Simple: Simple rules, only countries with high per capita emission need to participate

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Conclusions New concept for an international climate regime Simple, but eliminates two concerns often voiced in relation to C&C: –Delayed participation of DCs –No resource transfer and hot air For 450 CO 2 : participation at roughly world average and convergence to 3 tCO2eq./cap within 40 years For 550 CO 2 : participation at roughly 50% above global average and convergence to 4.5 tCO 2 eq./cap within 40 years Additional mechanisms needed for vulnerable developing countries to adapt to climate change. Future decisions on post 2012 regime guided CDC principles: –Developed countries per capita emissions converge –Developing countries do the same but delayed and conditional to developed country action.

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Conclusions compromise proposal Strengths: Designed as a compromise to accommodate many different viewpoints Gradual phase-in in line with the UNFCCC spirit Takes into account national circumstances Flexibility emission reductions vs. technologies development Allows for gradual decision making Trust building, as industrialised countries take the lead Weaknesses: Relative complex system that requires many decisions Risk that countries enter too late, that desired stabilization levels are lost Incentives are needed for countries to participate Critical: participation of the USA through the commitment for technology development

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Change 1990 to 2020 towards 550 ppm CO 2 Annex I: -5% to –25% below 1990 No participation: South Asia, Africa, Centrally Planned Asia or excess allowances under C&C or Triptych Deviate from their reference: Latin America, Middle East and East Asia

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Change 1990 to 2050 towards 550 ppm CO 2 Annex I: -40% to -80% below 1990 Deviate from reference: Most Non-Annex I regions, except South Asia Triptych: more reductions for coal intensive countries under these parameters

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Change 1990 to 2020 towards 400 ppm CO 2 Annex I: -25% to -50% below 1990 No participation: only a very few countries Deviate from their reference: all Non-Annex I regions

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Change 1990 to 2050 towards 400 ppm CO 2 Annex I: -80% to -90% below 1990 Substantial deviation from reference in all Non-Annex I regions

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Conclusions EU target of 2°C above pre-industrial levels: below 450 ppmv CO 2 (average climate sensitivity) If no efforts are made to reduce emissions and if the Kyoto Protocol is not implemented, there is a significant probability that staying below 450 ppmv CO 2 would be out of reach already as of 2020. To keep 450 ppmv CO 2 within reach –Developed country emissions would need to be reduced substantially –USA needs to be involved in the system most likely with stronger action than the national target of 18% intensity improvement in 10 years –Developing country emissions need to deviate from the reference as soon as possible, for some countries even as of 2020 (Latin America, Middle East, East Asia) Reduction difference between stabilization targets (400, 450 and 550 ppmv) is larger than between approaches

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Emission reduction efforts Reduction below 1990 level 20202050 400 ppm CO 2 Annex I-25% to -50%-80% to -90% Non- Annex I Substantial deviation from reference in Latin America, Middle East, East Asia and Centrally planned Asia Substantial deviation from reference in all regions 450 ppm CO 2 Annex I-10% to -30%-70% to -90% Non- Annex I Deviation from reference in Latin America, Middle East, East Asia and Centrally Planned Asia Substantial deviation from reference in all regions 550 ppm CO 2 Annex I -5% to -25%-40% to -80% Non- Annex I Deviation from reference in Latin America and Middle East, East Asia Deviation from reference in most regions, specially in Latin America and Middle East

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Conclusions 450 ppmv CO 2 concentrations is not a safe option: –Likely to result in global temperature increase above 2°C –Coral reefs affected, –Considerable melting of ice, –Increased extreme whether events, –Risk of large scale singularities low but not excluded Stabilization requires global emissions to drop below 1990 levels (for 450 ppmv CO 2 within a few decades)

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Reductions after 2020 towards 450 -2.2% Maximum annual reduction rate -4% -6.5% -10% Global emission levels necessary to stay below 450 ppmv CO 2 concentration assuming that all greenhouse gases are reduced in the same proportion and that the global trend cannot change be faster than 0.5 percentage points per year using the MAGICC model. For 550 ppmv the difference between the cases is less pronounced (maximum annual reduction rate of 0.6%, 0.9%, 0.9%, 1% for immediate reductions after 2020) 450 ppmv CO 2

Workshop on Quantitative Tools & Negotiating Capacity Effect of delay of action Delay in the next decades significantly increases the efforts to to achieve the same environmental goal.
