M. Amann G. Klaassen, R. Mechler, J. Cofala, C. Heyes International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) Modelling synergies and trade-offs between mitigation of GHGs and air pollution with the RAINS model
2
Linkages between air pollution and climate Air pollutants have radiative forcing: Ozone controls serve air quality and climate concerns Aerosols/PM damage human health and influence climate Environmental impacts of CC and AP are interlinked Synergies and trade-offs in emission controls

A multi-pollutant/multi-effect framework extended to GHGs PMSO 2 NO x VOCNH 3 CO 2 CH 4 N2ON2O CFCs HFCs SF 6 Health impacts: PM O 3 Vegetation damage: O 3 Acidification Eutrophication Radiative forcing: - direct - via aerosols - via OH
4
Introducing GHGs into RAINS Develop cost curves for GHGs (CO 2, CH 4, N 2 O, HFC, PFC, SF 6 ) in addition to SO 2, NO x, VOC, NH 3, PM, (BC, CO) Country-by-country, medium-term up to 2030 Include structural changes as means for emission controls Capture synergies and trade-offs

Further work Finalization of cost curves for other GHGs Optimization tool: –Separate and joint optimization of emission controls for air pollutants and GHGs: –With constraints (targets) for air quality –With constraints (targets) for radiative forcing/GWP –Simulation of emission trading, emission taxes Implementation for developing countries
28
Conclusions (1) Important synergies and trade-offs exist between air pollution control and GHG mitigation Integration can maximize synergies and avoid trade-offs To be truly cost-effective, climate policies have to account for cost savings of reducing traditional air pollutants - both for industrialized and developing countries
29
Conclusions (2) Multi-pollutant/multi-effect/multi-scale strategies: offer more flexibility and increased potential for economic efficiency harness multiple benefits of measures when costs are increasing connect global long-term climate objectives with concrete local near-term benefits
