    Schulen auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität : die Politik hat die Hausaufgaben nicht gemacht (2024)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-20
    Description: Innovative Finanzierungskonzepte wie Solar und Spar-Bürgercontracting belegen, dass ein riesiges Einsparpotenzial an Schulen wirtschaftlich erschlossen werden könnte. Doch bislang passiert zu wenig, um dieses auch zu nutzen. ­Das Projekt Schools4Future zeigt, wie Schulen eigenständig eine CO2-Bilanz erstellen können, um nicht nur eigene Klimaschutzmaßnahmen umzusetzen, sondern auch, um der Politik zu zeigen, wo dringender Handlungsbedarf besteht.

    Safe system for sustainable development (2024)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-20
    Description: This paper presents a novel governance concept for sustainable development, introducing the "Safe System Approach" as a transformative model that shifts focus from individual behavioural change to systemic transformation. This approach challenges traditional governance models that emphasize individual responsibility in achieving sustainable development and decarbonization. Instead, it advocates for creating an enabling environment that inherently guides individuals and communities towards sustainable actions. The Safe System Approach is centred on delivering low-carbon services across essential sectors, including electricity, mobility, industry, buildings, human settlements, and agriculture, thereby embedding sustainability as a default choice in societal systems. Drawing parallels with successful models in road safety, the paper explores the potential of this approach in urban development and climate action. It emphasizes the need for a broad coalition and integrated approaches in managing shared resources, highlighting the significance of systemic adjustments over individual behavioral change. By proposing a structure where sustainability is facilitated by the system's design, the paper builds on key concepts from seminal works by scholars like Garrett Hardin, Mancur Olson, Elinor Ostrom, and Ahrend Lijphart. It discusses the challenges and opportunities in creating safe operating spaces for sustainable development, emphasizing the need for multi-actor, multilevel governance systems that can manage shared resources sustainably and are resilient to political volatility. The paper aims to offer a robust, efficient, and inclusive pathway to sustainable development, contributing to the global discourse on environmental and social resilience.

    Politische Instrumente zur Gewährleistung der Nachhaltigkeit von Wasserstoffimporten : eine Kurzstudie im Auftrag von Brot für die Welt und der Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung (2024)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Für Deutschland und viele Industrieländer weltweit wird der Import von grünem Wasserstoff ein zentraler Baustein auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität sein. Dabei muss einerseits gewährleistet sein, dass grüner Wasserstoff auch wirklich "grün" im Sinne von klimaneutral ist. Zugleich gibt es immer mehr Forderungen, dass auch andere Nachhaltigkeitskriterien - soziale, ökonomische und ökologische - bei der Produktion und dem Transport von Wasserstoff eingehalten werden. Der politisch getriebene Aufbau einer globalen Wasserstoffwirtschaft bietet von Anfang an die Möglichkeit, diesen Sektor in Einklang mit den bestehenden politischen Zielen zu bringen. Dazu zählen beispielsweise die Pariser Klimaziele oder die Agenda 2030. Die Industrienation Deutschland, die auch in Zukunft auf Energieimporte angewiesen sein wird, kann hier als führende Industrienation als Vorreiter Einfluss nehmen. Damit kann nicht nur sichergestellt werden, dass der nach Deutschland importierte Wasserstoff "grün und nachhaltig" ist, sondern auch die Nachhaltigkeit des globalen Wasserstoffmarktes insgesamt beeinflusst werden. Diese Kurzstudie untersucht, welche bereits existierenden Politikinstrumente geeignet sind, Nachhaltigkeitskriterien für Wasserstoffimporte zu verankern und im Zusammenspiel den Weg zu einem nachhaltigen globalen Wasserstoffmarkt zu unterstützen. Dabei werden ausschließlich Nachhaltigkeitsziele und -kriterien jenseits der Klimawirkung von Wasserstoff analysiert. Es ist unbestritten, dass das zentrale Ziel der Wasserstoffwirtschaft die Reduktion von Treibhausgasen bis hin zur Klimaneutralität ist, was bereits in einer Vielzahl von Studien und Stellungnahmen diskutiert wurde. Daher wird in dieser Studie von der Klimaneutralität des grünen Wasserstoffs ausgegangen, um den Fokus auf die anderen wesentlichen Nachhaltigkeitsaspekte zu lenken, die für den Import von grünem und nachhaltigen Wasserstoff aus dem Globalen Süden von entscheidender Bedeutung sind.

    Gymnocrecini, Amaurornithini and Pardirallini: three new family-group names for rails, with comments on the taxonomic placement of Zapornia akool (Rallidae) (2024)
    In:  Avian Systematics vol. 2 no. 4, pp. 53-64
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-02-15
    Description: Multi-locus and phylogenomic studies have clarified the taxonomic limits and \nhigher-level relationships among rails (Rallidae). A recently proposed classification of rails by \nKirchman et al. (2021) listed nine tribes. The names of three of these (Gymnocrecini, \nAmaurornithini and Pardirallini) were introduced by Livezey (1998), but these names do not \nmeet the requirements of the ICZN Code (1999) and are therefore unavailable. We formally \ndescribe these taxa and make the names available for nomenclatural purposes. In addition, we \nclarify the apparent incongruence among recent phylogenetic studies in the generic (and tribal) \nplacement of Zapornia akool.

    Unique Aggregations of a Large Undescribed Solitary Tunicate in the Arabian Sea (2024)
    In:  Diversity vol. 16 no. 4
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-18
    Description: We document aggregations of an undescribed benthic solitary tunicate of the family Pyuridae from the Arabian Sea. This new genus was found forming dense thickets in shallow rocky substrates around Masirah Island and the Dhofar area in Oman. Such aggregations of tunicates have not been reported before from coral reefs in the Indo-West Pacific region and the Atlantic. This observation contributes to our understanding of the ecology and biogeography of ascidians, setting the stage for a comprehensive species description and in-depth analysis of this species.

    Paraphyly of the subgenus Micronecta (Micronecta) Kirkaldy, 1897 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Micronectidae) based on mitochondrial genomes and nuclear rDNAs (2024)
    In:  Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny vol. 82, pp. 77-87
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-22
    Description: The genus Micronecta Kirkaldy, 1897 is the most species-rich genus in the family Micronectidae, containing more than 160 species. Micronecta is currently divided into 11 subgenera, five of which are monotypic. Moreover, the subgenus Micronecta is an empirical mixture group. The definitions of some subgenera were based on only a few aberrant morphological features, which are specializations with few phylogenetic significances. The relationship between these subgenera remains unclear. In this study, we newly sequenced mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) and nuclear rDNAs (nrDNAs) for 13 Micronecta species, representing seven subgenera, and those for ten other water bugs. Our phylogenetic analyses showed that the subgenus Lundbladella represents the sister group to all other studied subgenera of Micronecta. The subgenus Unguinecta was the sister group to the clade that contains Dichaetonecta and Sigmonecta. More importantly, the subgenus Micronecta represents a paraphyletic group, which further forms a monophyletic group together with the subgenera Basileonecta and Ctenonecta. This is for the first time that the phylogeny of the genus Micronecta was investigated based on molecular data and the paraphyly of the subgenus Micronecta was revealed. Such evidence suggested the necessity of the revision of the taxonomic system of the genus in the future, and may also serve as a reference for the delimitation of subgeneric characters.

    Comparative analysis of residential building decarbonization policies in major economies : insights from the EU, China, and India (2024)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-31
    Description: The global building sector, responsible for over 30% of CO2 emissions, necessitates urgent decarbonization efforts. This paper examines residential building decarbonization policies in three major economies - the European Union (EU), China, and India. It provides an overview of diverse policies through policy landscape analysis and delves into the design specifics with a detailed policy intensity analysis of building energy codes, information disclosure, and financial incentives in each region. Our findings reveal a diverse mix of policies targeting residential building decarbonization in all three regions. While the EU and China have long-established diverse policy instruments, India's building energy efficiency policies are relatively recent and limited. Detailed analyses of building energy codes, information disclosure, and financial incentives expose variations in ambition, scope, and implementation, even with shared policy instruments. Significant advancements in building energy codes, particularly in stringency and compliance checks, are evident in the EU and China. Conversely, India faces a notable obstacle with limited adoption of residential building energy codes, impacting its journey towards net-zero. The EU leads in building energy labelling policies, while China and India encounter various challenges hindering widespread implementation. Financial incentives across the three regions predominantly take the form of subsidies, potentially straining public budgets. The study concludes with reflections on the pressing need for future research extending beyond the operational phase of buildings.

    The Weimar triangle should lead on EU industrial policy (2024)
    Paris : Institut Montaigne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-15
    Description: In the race against time, the European Union must move swiftly to navigate the green transition. This imperative isn't just about staying ahead in the global green technology competition; it is about securing the future of Europe's economy while combating climate change. Ahead of the EU elections looming, the urgency of this dual challenge cannot be overstated. With a new pro-EU Polish government in place, the Weimar Triangle - a trilateral forum that brings together Poland, France and Germany - could provide the ideal place to offer a new bold industrial policy leadership in Europe.

    Dispersal‐related plant traits are associated with range size in the Atlantic Forest (2024)
    Wiley
    In:  Diversity and Distributions vol. 2024 no. e13856
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-06-06
    Description: Aim: The efficiency of animal-mediated seed dispersal is threatened by the decline of animal populations, especially in tropical forests. We hypothesise that large-seeded plants with animal-mediated dispersal tend to have limited geographic ranges and face an increased risk of extinction due to the potential decline in seed dispersal by large-bodied fruit-eating and seed-dispersing animals (frugivores). Location: Atlantic Forest, Brazil, South America. Taxon: Angiosperms. Methods: First, we collected dispersal-related traits (dispersal syndrome, fruit size, and seed size), growth form (tree, climber, and other) and preferred vegetation type (open and closed) data for 1052 Atlantic Forest plant species. Next, we integrated these with occurrence records, extinction risk assessments, and phylogenetic trees. Finally, we performed phylogenetic generalised least squares regressions to test the direct and interactive effects of dispersal-related traits and vegetation type on geographical range size. Results: Large-seeded species had smaller range sizes than small-seeded species, but only for species with animal-mediated dispersal, not for those dispersed by abiotic mechanisms. However, plants with abiotic dispersal had overall smaller range sizes than plants with animal-mediated dispersal. Furthermore, we found that species restricted to forests had smaller ranges than those occurring in open or mixed vegetation. Finally, at least 29% of the Atlantic Forest flora is threatened by extinction, but this was not related to plant dispersal syndromes. Main Conclusions: Large-seeded plants with animal-mediated dispersal may be suffering from dispersal limitation, potentially due to past and ongoing defaunation of large-bodied frugivores, leading to small range sizes. Other factors, such as deforestation and fragmentation, will probably modulate the effects of dispersal on range size, and ultimately extinction. Our study sheds light on the relationship between plant traits, mutualistic interactions, and distribution that are key to the functioning of tropical forests.

    Through the desert towards fresh water : or just a fata morgana? (2024)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-06-07
    Description: The twenty-eighth Conference of the Parties (COP28) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Dubai among many other items concluded the first Global Stocktake (GST) under the Paris Agreement. This article discusses the conference's outcomes in the areas of mitigation, loss and damage, adaptation, climate finance, and cooperation under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. The conference arguably made history by for the first time ever recognising the need to "transition away" from fossil fuels, adopting specific targets for the scale-up of renewable energy and energy efficiency, and by operationalising a fund to support developing countries in dealing with loss and damage caused by climate change. However, the legal language in the call for an energy transition is relatively non-committal and the conference failed to underpin the new global objectives with adequate resources. Actual implementation of the Dubai outcomes will therefore to a large extent depend on whether COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan - already billed as "finance COP" - will be able to cut the Gordian knot of finance.

    Evaluation des deutschen Ressourceneffizienzprogramms (ProgRess III) - Ergebnisse und Empfehlungen für die weitere Politikentwicklung : Abschlussbericht ; Kurzfassung (2024)
    Dessau-Roßlau : Umweltbundesamt
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-06-25
    Description: Dieser Bericht befasst sich mit dem ⁠Monitoring⁠ und der Evaluation von ProgRess III. Der Bericht geht über die Analyse der Ressourceneffizienz auf volkswirtschaftlicher Ebene hinaus und evaluiert insbesondere die Umsetzung der Maßnahmen, die mit ihnen verbundenen Effekte und die zugrundeliegenden Erfolgsfaktoren. Dazu wurde ein zweistufiges Verfahren durchgeführt: ein Monitoring und eine Evaluation des Programms. Nach einer Einführung in die Ziele der Evaluation und der Abgrenzung zum zuvor durchgeführten Monitoring (Kap. 1) werden die Forschungsfragen und die Elemente eines erfolgreichen Politikmix, wie er in der theoretischen Forschung diskutiert und konzipiert wird, kurz erörtert (Kap. 2). Dann werden die Methoden (Analyse, Interviews, Webcrawling) und der Fahrplan der Evaluation vorgestellt (Kap. 3). Zwei Wirkungsmodelle, ein materielles und ein organisationales ⁠Wirkmodell⁠, bilden die Basis für die verschiedenen Betrachtungsebenen und Foki, die für die Evaluation gewählt wurden. In Kapitel 4 werden schließlich die Erkenntnisse, die durch den Einsatz der verschiedenen Methoden gewonnen wurden, in bewusst kompakter und übersichtlicher Form in Bezug zu den Evaluationskriterien dargestellt und Empfehlungen abgeleitet. Kapitel 5 widmet sich der Gesamtbewertung der Effektivität von ProgRess III und Kapitel 6 bearbeitet abschließend die Frage, welche Entwicklungspotenziale aus den gewonnenen Erkenntnissen abgeleitet werden können.

    The EU as a normative power? : Fighting greenwashing and promoting the integrity of corporate climate action within and outside Article 6 of the Paris Agreement (2023)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-02
    Description: As the climate crisis is accelerating and the pressure to act is steadily increasing, many companies are claiming themselves or their products carbon neutral. This is usually achieved by offsetting residual emissions with carbon certificates (carbon offsetting). However, recent revelations about the inadequate quality of carbon credits and legal uncertainties surrounding the use of such offset claims are increasingly raising doubts about this approach. This Wuppertal Report examines how the EU can promote integrity in corporate climate action. Taking into account the new framework of the Paris Agreement, the paper outlines various options for how the EU could push for more integrity and effectively combat greenwashing through the targeted use of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. In their recommendations, the authors advocate addressing the most serious consequences of ongoing offset practices through increased regulation of offset claims. If a ban on offset claims cannot be implemented, claims requirements and carbon offset regulations should be further specified, for example, by prohibiting any type of double counting of emissions reductions. In addition to tightening the rules for corporate offset claims within Europe, the EU could help partner countries make informed decisions when approving climate change mitigation measures and respective carbon credits. The report also emphasizes the EU's special role in international climate negotiations, where it should advocate for a strong legal framework for climate action under Article 6.

    Growing Politics : Communities of Practice im politischen Feld der (peri-)urbanen Landwirtschaft in Kapstadt (Südafrika) (2023)
    München : Oekom-Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-09-11
    Description: In einer umkämpften Stadt wird der Anbau von Nahrung zu einem politischen Akt: Anbau, Erwerb von Nahrung und ihre sozialen und umweltbezogenen Qualitätskriterien sind eng verknüpft mit dem "Recht auf Stadt", wie es der französische Soziologe Henri Lefebvre formuliert hat. Anhand verschiedener Dimensionen dieses "Rechts auf Stadt" untersucht Katharina Gröne drei Landwirtschaftsprojekte in Kapstadt/Südafrika - mit Blick auf die kommunikative und die mikropolitische Ebene sozialökologischer Praktiken. Aufgrund ungleicher sozialräumlicher Entwicklung, Teilhabe und Anerkennung durch die Politik nehmen diese drei Projekte jeweils unterschiedliche Positionen im alternativen Nahrungsmittelnetzwerk Kapstadts ein. Kulturelle Artefakte, Symbole, Logos und Begriffe dienen dabei der Herstellung sozialer Ordnung und eines spezifischen Repräsentationsregimes im politischen Feld. So wird der Anbau von Gemüse zum Austragungsort eines Machtkampfes - und dient der Herstellung kultureller Hegemonie in der städtischen Nachhaltigkeitspolitik.

    Energy without Russia : the consequences of the Ukraine war and the EU sanctions on the energy sector in Europe (2023)
    Budapest : Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-13
    Description: In view of the accelerating climate crisis, the Russian invasion of Ukraine highlighted the dependency of fossil fuels on the part of Germany and the European Union (EU). With the priority aim to reduce the import dependency from the Russian Federation while providing energy security and staying on track with climate mitigation efforts, the Federal Government was presented with major challenges. Prior to the war, an approximate 34% of the mineral oil, 53.6% of the natural gas, and 50% of hard coal supplies to Germany originated from Russian sources. As of 2023, however, Germany is independent from Russian energy imports. This paper examines implications of the global energy crisis induced by the invasion on the energy sector in Germany. As a basis for achieving this analysis, a short overview of the energy situation in the country before the war and a demonstration of the provisional conditions is presented. This is followed by an analysis of the main consequences of the war and medium and long-term strategies to reach Germany's climate goals while maintaining energy security. Lastly, foreseeable consequences regarding the European and German climate goals are discussed.

    Caught between path-dependence and green opportunities : assessing the impetus for green banking in South Africa (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-08
    Description: As investors and financial intermediaries, private banks are increasingly confronted with climate change concerns. But to what extent do banks identify as the changemakers driving climate alignment forward? To advance this question, this paper analyzes the South African banking sector with a specific focus on Standard Bank and Nedbank as exemplary case studies. Relying on the concept of "climate mainstreaming", we critically assess the banks' annual reports and compare their self-portrayal with publicly available sources on the bank's business practices, chiefly provided by non-governmental organizations and media. We find that Nedbank pushes a holistic narrative of climate change as an inevitable business opportunity. Standard Bank, in turn, relies on a "narrative of balance" between climate change and other profit-oriented investments to safeguard its stakes in the fossil industry. In so doing, this paper sheds light on greenwashing practices within disclosure specifically and the lack of binding corporate regulation more generally.

    D7.2 conclusive policy recommendations guide : version 1: EU and general policy recommendations ; QualDeEPC H2020 project (2023)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: The original objectives for introducing Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) were 1) to make energy performance transparent in the building market, as a measure of energy costs of using a building that a potential buyer or tenant would be interested in; and 2) to encourage energy efficiency renovation. However, the current implementation of EPC schemes in the Member States still shows significant challenges in achieving these two objectives. The recast of the EU Directive on the Overall Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD) provides a chance to enhance both the usefulness and quality of EPCs and the EPC schemes overall. This document aims to inform both the debate on the recast of the EPBD and the enhancement of national EPC schemes in EU Member States. It presents the draft policy recommendations of the Horizon 2020 QualDeEPC project for making the EPBD and the national schemes more effective, particularly for deep renovation, and enhance their quality overall. The policy recommendations particularly target the link between EPCs and deep (energy) renovation1, while increasing the levels of ambition and convergence across the EU in terms of building renovation. Deep (energy) renovation is crucial for mitigating climate change and for energy security. The EPBD and all of its articles, as well as national EPC schemes, should aim to make deep (energy) renovation the default. This objective would be embedded and ensured in EPC schemes, if the policy recommendations provided in this document were adopted and implemented.

    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: Am frühen Sonntagmorgen des 20. November 2022 ging die 27. Konferenz der Vertragsparteien des Rahmenübereinkommens der Vereinten Nationen über Klimaänderungen (27th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), COP27) im ägyptischen Scharm El Sheikh zu Ende. Geplant war die Konferenz bis Freitag. Doch es gab viel zu diskutieren. Katastrophale Extremwetterereignisse wie die Überschwemmungen in Pakistan und historische Dürren in Europa unterstrichen auch dieses Jahr wieder die Bedeutung von ambitionierten klimapolitischen Entschlüssen. Auch der neueste Bericht des Weltklimarats (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC) hatte erneut hervorgehoben, dass diese Ereignisse weiter eskalieren werden, je mehr die globale Erwärmung zunimmt.

    Leveraging the global stocktake for effective sectoral climate governance (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: At the next United Nations (UN) climate conference in the United Arab Emirates at the end of 2023, the first Global Stocktake (GST) of the Paris Agreement is due to conclude. The main goal of this process is to feed into a new round of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) by Parties to the Agreement for 2035. In addition, the GST is aimed at identifying opportunities for strengthening international cooperation to achieve the Paris goals. The GST represents the first opportunity for Parties and other stakeholders to collectively highlight opportunities for international climate cooperation. Specifically, outcomes should plant the seeds for the development of concrete sectoral decarbonization roadmaps that could guide international cooperation in years to come.

    Can a CO2 tax be socially just? : Analysis of the social distribution effects of the German CO2 taxation (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: Rising energy costs have led to increased discussion about the social impact of the energy transition in Germany in recent years. In 2021, a gradually increasing CO2 tax was introduced. This paper analyzes the question of whether a CO2 tax can be socially just. Using data analysis and desk research, correlations between income and energy consumption in Germany are shown. In a short analysis, it is investigated which additional burdens different types of private households have to expect in the coming years due to the introduction of CO2 pricing on energy. In particular, the introduction of a per capita flat rate fed by CO2 tax revenues could be a suitable way to reduce the burden on low-income households.

    Of hopeful narratives and historical injustices : an analysis of just transition narratives in European coal regions (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: In recent years, the public discourse on the phase-out of carbon-intensive technologies and practices has come to a near consensus that a "just transition" is required. Yet, this term seems to have as many meanings as there are stakeholders using it. The purpose of this paper is to unpack the different meanings that regional stakeholders assign to it and the underlying dimensions of in(justice) that they invoke in their political communication. To this end, we employ a policy narrative analysis to study and compare the political discourse in four European coal and carbon-intensive mining regions: Ida-Virumaa (Estonia, oil shale), the Rhenish mining region (Germany, lignite), Upper Silesia (Poland, hard coal) and Western Macedonia (Greece, lignite). Specifically, we address the following research questions: Which narratives are characterising the political discourse around just transition? Which (in)justices are being invoked? Which patterns, similarities or differences are recognizable between regions? We found that hopeful narratives describing structural change as an opportunity to reinvent the region are prevalent in all regions. Strong narratives of resistance only prevail in Upper Silesia and Ida-Virumaa where a phase-out decision has not yet been adopted. In terms of injustices, we find surprisingly little evidence that injustices related to the immediate effects of the transformation (e.g. lay-offs and compensation for workers and companies) play an important role. Instead, the aspects related to the historical injustices produced by the legacy industrial system prevail. And perhaps most importantly, questions about access and allocation of the opportunities of the imminent transition are key and should be addressed more explicitly.

    D5.3 guidebook for improved EPCs presenting the project's proposal for an enhanded and converging EPC assessment and certification scheme : consolidated results ; QualDeEPC H2020 project (2023)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: The QualDeEPC project is aiming to both improve quality and cross-EU convergence of Energy Performance Certificate schemes, and the link between EPCs and deep renovation: High-quality Energy Performance Assessment and Certification in Europe Accelerating Deep Energy Renovation. The objective of the project is to improve the practical implementation of the assessment, issuance, design, and use of EPCs as well as their renovation recommendations, in the participating countries and beyond. This report serves as a compilation of the project's proposal for an enhanced and converging EPC assessment and certification scheme. It aims to provide a detailed description on the set of practical concepts, policy proposals, and tools for an enhanced EPC scheme towards deep renovation, developed by the QualDeEPC project. The project's substantial proposals both on EU and national level are presented in a comprehensive and rational way, guiding the relevant stakeholders, in particular the policy makers and competed bodies, on which steps need to be followed so as the proposals to be adapted and how the specific values can be determined in MSs. Furthermore, this report includes the project's proposal for defining "Deep Energy Renovation" based on a modified nZEB-based approach. The project's priorities A) to G) addressed are presented in the following order in this document, reflecting the importance of the enhanced EPC template form and the training of EPC assessors in such schemes: A) Improving the recommendations for renovation, which are provided on the EPCs, towards deep energy renovation; E) High user-friendliness of the EPC, by way of an enhanced EPC template form, including an introduction of the proposed "Energy Rating" indicator; D) Regular mandatory EPC assessor training or examination on assessment and renovation recommendations, required for certification/accreditation and registry; B) Online tool for comparing EPC recommendations to deep energy renovation recommendations; C) Creating Deep Renovation Network Platforms (DRNPs); F) & G) Voluntary/mandatory advertising guidelines for EPCs and Improving compliance with the mandatory use of EPCs in real estate advertisement.

    Kreislaufwirtschaft in NRW : Überblick über zentrale EU-Maßnahmen und ihre Relevanz für NRW ; Diskussionspapier zum Forschungsmodul 3a im Forschungsprojekt "Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie NRW - Vertiefungsanalysen zur Umsetzung aus wissenschaftlicher Sicht" (2023)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: Aufgrund der Wechselwirkungen mit sozialen, ökonomischen und ökologischen Zielen ist die Kreislaufwirtschaft möglicherweise ein Handlungsbereich mit systemischer Schubkraft für die integrierte Nachhaltigkeitsentwicklung von NRW. Sie ist deswegen auch für die Umsetzung der NRW-Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie, die 2016 zum ersten Mal aufgelegt und 2020 aktualisiert wurde, von besonderem Interesse. Aus diesem Grund hat sich das Wuppertal Institut im Rahmen des Forschungsprojekts "Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie NRW - Vertiefungsanalysen zur Umsetzung aus wissenschaftlicher Sicht" in einem Forschungsmodul mit der Umsetzung der Kreislaufwirtschaft im Kontext der Gesamtwirtschaft von NRW beschäftigt und hier insbesondere die Auswirkungen des europäischen, politischen Rahmens auf die Aktivitäten in NRW in den Blick genommen. Mit anderen Worten, das nachfolgende Arbeitspapier nimmt den European Green Deal und seine Bedeutung für NRW in den Blick und fragt: Welche Herausforderungen für NRW lassen sich aus dem Green Deal ablesen, wie und in welchen Sektoren kann/soll NRW eine Transformation zur Kreislaufwirtschaft einleiten und welche Bedingungen müssen dabei beachtet werden? Methodisch basiert diese Auswertung auf der Analyse relevanter Primärdokumente sowie der Sekundärliteratur zur Umsetzung der Kreislaufwirtschaft im politischen Mehrebenensystem. Dabei soll das Papier kein industriepolitisches Innovationsprogramm entwerfen, sondern eine Handreichung zur weiteren Diskussion von potenziellen Maßnahmen und Politikvorschlägen im Hinblick auf die zu entwickelnde Kreislaufwirtschaftsstrategie darstellen.

    Strengthening global climate governance and international cooperation for energy‐efficient buildings (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: Buildings constitute one of the main GHG emitting sectors, and energy efficiency is a key lever to reduce emissions in the sector. Global climate policy has so far mostly focused on economy-wide emissions. However, emission reduction actions are ultimately sectoral, and opportunities and barriers to achieving emission reductions vary strongly among sectors. This article therefore seeks to analyse to what extent more targeted global governance may help to leverage mitigation enablers and overcome barriers to energy efficiency in buildings. To this end, the article first synthesises existing literature on mitigation enablers and barriers as well as existing literature on how global governance may help address these barriers ("governance potential"). On this basis, the article analyses to what extent this governance potential has already been activated by existing activities of international institutions. Finally, the article discusses how identified governance gaps could be closed. The analysis finds that despite the local characteristics of the sector, global governance has a number of levers at its disposal that could be used to promote emission reductions via energy efficiency. In practice, however, lacking attention to energy efficiency in buildings at national level is mirrored at the international level. Recently, though, a number of coalitions demanding stronger action have emerged. Such frontrunners could work through like-minded coalitions and at the same time try to improve conditions for cooperation in the climate regime and other existing institutions.

    Vom Flickenteppich zur echten Kreislaufwirtschaftsstrategie : Impulspapier (2023)

    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: Ohne die Transformation unserer Wirtschaft in eine nachhaltige Kreislaufwirtschaft werden wir die planetaren Grenzen weiter überschreiten, die Klimaziele verfehlen und die Ökosysteme schädigen. Deutschlands Politik hat sich in einem Flickenteppich aus Strategien und Gesetzen verfangen, aus dem eine echte Kreislaufwirtschaft nicht in der notwendigen Geschwindigkeit hervorgehen kann. Der Versuch, einer verschwenderischen Wirtschaft allein mit den Mitteln des Abfallrechts beizukommen, kann nicht glücken. Nötig ist vielmehr eine ganzheitliche, übergeordnete deutsche Kreislaufwirtschaftsstrategie mit ambitionierten nationalen Zielen. Das vorliegende Papier will zeigen, was sich konkret verändern muss und welche Hebel es braucht, um die Kreislaufwirtschaft signifikant voranzubringen. Es ist Zeit zu handeln. Innovative Ideen, Konzepte und Forderungen liegen auf dem Tisch. Sie machen es möglich, Deutschland auf eine zirkuläre Zukunft auszurichten, Rohstoffe und Materialien konsequent im Kreislauf zu führen und der Wirtschaft Planungssicherheit zu geben. Kreislaufwirtschaft ist Zukunftswirtschaft. Sie muss Kernthema einer neuen Regierung werden.

    What determines climate ambition? : Analysing NDC enhancement with a mixed-method design (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-22
    Description: The 2015 Paris Agreement relies on Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to outline each country's policies and plans for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To strengthen global climate action and achieve the Agreement's temperature goal, it is crucial to enhance the ambition level of NDCs every 5 years. While previous studies have explored the ambition of initial NDCs, limited research has delved into the factors driving the enhancement or lack thereof in NDCs' emission reduction plans. This study employs a mixed-method design to investigate the determinants of NDC enhancement. First, we analyse the updated or revised NDCs of 111 countries using quantitative methods. Second, we conduct qualitative case studies focusing on Brazil and South Africa. Our findings reveal that countries that engaged in stakeholder consultations with civil society, business, and labour groups prior to developing their updated or revised NDCs were more likely to enhance their greenhouse gas reduction targets. These results are further supported by the case studies. South Africa conducted comprehensive consultations and submitted an enhanced GHG target, while Brazil, which did not arrange open consultations, did not improve its target. This study underscores the significance of comprehensive and transparent stakeholder engagement processes, highlighting their potential to drive enhanced NDCs. By involving diverse stakeholders, including civil society, business, and labour groups, countries can foster greater ambition and effectiveness in their climate action, ultimately contributing to the global effort to combat climate change.

    Description: Phylogenetic analysis supports the placement of Nesoctites as the sister-group of all \nextant woodpeckers (Picidae), except Jynx, Sasia, Verreauxia, and Picumnus. Bock (1994) listed \n\xe2\x80\x98Nesoctitinae\xe2\x80\x99 Wolters, 1976, as an available family-group name. We show that the latter name \ndid not meet the requirements of the ICZN Code (1999) and is therefore unavailable. However, \nShort (1974) used the name Nesoctitini and described differences with other woodpeckers and \nshould, therefore, be regarded as the author of the family-group name.

    Towards a green new deal : lessons after a lost decade (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-03-24
    Description: In his essay, the author presents a stock-taking of the debate on Green Deals. The starting point of this personal assessment is a brief outline of the content and impact of a study in which the author and colleagues published a first outline of a "Green New Deal for Europe" as a political response to the 2008 financial crisis. 2008 had been a critical juncture for mainstream economics: however, from the perspective of policy-learning, the period after has been a lost decade. The European Green Deal as presented by the European Commission in 2019 can be perceived as a historic milestone and confirmation of a regime change in mainstream economic policy in which ecological considerations gain in importance. Yet, the Deal suffers from major deficits. In sum, the European Green Deal could be interpreted as an insufficient attempt to take advantage of the rapidly closing windows of opportunity for a peaceful transition towards sustainability. On the eve of a planetary crisis, the governance of economic transitions towards sustainability needs to be improved and accelerated. Reflecting on the 2009 study A Green New Deal for Europe, this essay attempts to draw a few lessons and frugal heuristics for the policy-design of Green Deals.

    Empfehlung zur Weiterentwicklung des Berliner Energie- und Klimaschutzprogramms 2030 ; Umsetzungszeitraum 2022 bis 2026 (2023)
    Berlin : Senatsverwaltung für Umwelt, Mobilität, Verbraucher- und Klimaschutz
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-04-03
    Description: Berlin will bis 2045 klimaneutral werden und bis 2030 70 Prozent seiner CO2-Emissionen gegenüber 1990 reduzieren. Das größte Potenzial zur CO2-Vermeidung liegt im Gebäudesektor, in dem durch moderne Technologien der Einsatz fossiler Energien zu verringern ist. Im Verkehrssektor sind die CO2-Emissionen in den vergangenen Jahren sogar gestiegen: Rund 30 Prozent - das sind 5,6 Millionen Tonnen – der CO2-Emissionen in Berlin werden durch den Verkehr verursacht. Das Berliner Energie- und Klimaschutzprogramm (BEK 2030) ist das zentrale Instrument auf dem Weg zu einer klimaneutralen Hauptstadt. Das Wuppertal Institut hat gemeinsam mit der Berliner Energieagentur GmbH und DIW Econ Empfehlungen für die Weiterentwicklung des Programms für den Umsetzungszeitraum 2022 bis 2026 entwickelt. Der Bericht basiert auf neun Monaten intensiven Beratungsgesprächen, an denen Bürger*innen sowie mehr als 500 Vertreter*innen aus Verwaltungen, dem Handwerk, der Ver- und Entsorgungsbranche, von Wohnungsunternehmen sowie von weiteren interessierten Institutionen teilgenommen haben. Es umfasst mehr als 70 Maßnahmenvorschläge in den Handlungsfeldern Energie, Gebäude, Verkehr, Wirtschaft sowie Privater Konsum und Haushalte, die mit den globalen Zielen des Berliner Klimaschutz- und Energiewendegesetzes konsistent sind. Die Senatsverwaltung für Umwelt, Mobilität, Verbraucher- und Klimaschutz wird nun aufbauend auf den wissenschaftlichen Empfehlungen eine Beschlussvorlage für den Senat erarbeiten. Das Wuppertal Institut war federführend für die Bestimmung von sektoralen Zielpfaden sowie für die Maßnahmenentwicklung und -bewertung im Verkehrssektor verantwortlich.

    Sustainable development discourse and development aid in Germany : tracking the changes from environmental protectionism towards private sector opportunities (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-11-16
    Description: "Sustainable Development" can be understood as a widely used discourse that has become even more prominent since the publication of the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development in 2015. In this paper we analyze the way sustainable development discourse unfolds within the context of development aid in Germany by undertaking a discourse analysis of reports on development policy published 1973-2017 by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development. Our analysis reveals that the sustainable development discourse is characterized by distinct components and storylines that change over time. We detect, in general, a shift away from a focus on environmental protection toward an emphasis on the role of the private sector in leading sustainable development. We argue, therefore, that although development is now only legitimate if it is "sustainable", the discourse apparently facilitates the uneven allocation of development aid. The concern that arises here is that although Agenda 2030 pledges to take "bold and transformative steps" to secure the planet and to leave "no one behind" the least developed states who cannot provide "private sector opportunities" or fulfil "national self-responsibilities" for sustainable development are indeed being "left behind".

    Kommunale Abfallvermeidung : Handlungsempfehlungen im Hinblick auf die Entwicklung kommunaler Abfallvermeidungspolitiken (2023)
    Hagen : Fernuniversität in Hagen
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-26
    Description: Abfallvermeidung steht an der Spitze der Abfallhierarchie und sollte daher mit höchster Priorität behandelt werden - auch in den Kreislaufwirtschaftspolitiken auf kommunaler Ebene. Ein Leitfaden mit 19 praxisorientierten Handlungsempfehlungen soll Kommunen nun unterstützen, Abfallvermeidung systematisch und erfolgreich umzusetzen. Der Handlungsleitfaden ist ein Ergebnis des Projekts Circular Cities NRW: Das Wuppertal Institut hat gemeinsam mit der FernUniversität Hagen die 22 kreisfreien Städte in Nordrhein-Westfalen (NRW) sowie sechs internationale Referenzfälle in Bezug auf ihre Abfallvermeidungsmaßnahmen analysiert. Das Ergebnis: Die NRW-Städte gehen Abfallvermeidung zwar zunehmend an, allerdings bestehen große Unterschiede bei der Breite der Maßnahmen und den thematischen Schwerpunkten. Darüber hinaus haben die Forschenden viele nicht ausgeschöpfte Handlungspotenziale identifiziert. Der Leitfaden enthält Maßnahmen, mit denen Kommunen Abfallvermeidung systematisch, verwaltungsweit, sektorenübergreifend und verknüpft mit anderen Klimaschutz- und Nachhaltigkeitsaktivitäten angehen können. Besonders interessant für die Kommunen: Einige der Handlungsempfehlungen sind einfach umzusetzen, kostengünstig und ermöglichen schnelle Abfallvermeidungserfolge.

    Zero Waste Cities : die Rolle der Abfallvermeidung in der kommunalen Politik - wie Städte vorangehen können, um den urbanen Wandel mitzugestalten (2023)
    Kissing : WEKA Media
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-26
    Description: Der vorliegende Beitrag analysiert die Bedeutung der Abfallvermeidung auf kommunaler Ebene. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der Rolle von Städten bei der Abfallvermeidung und der Notwendigkeit strategischer Konzepte sowie praktischer Umsetzungsstrategien. Es wird herausgearbeitet, dass das Initiieren von Abfallvermeidungsmaßnahmen auf kommunaler Ebene auf verschiedene Herausforderungen stoßen kann, wie beispielsweise die Abstimmung bestehender Konsum- und Entsorgungsmuster sowie das Fehlen geeigneter Anreize für Akteure. Es wird gezeigt, inwiefern der Ansatz der Zero Waste City ein Instrument zur Förderung der kommunalen Abfallvermeidung darstellen kann und welche Ziele und Maßnahmen die Zero Waste Cities Kiel und München in ihre Zero-Waste-Konzepte aufgenommen haben. Darüber hinaus werden Handlungsempfehlungen zur Stärkung der Abfallvermeidung in der Kommune, in der Verwaltung und in Bezug auf spezifische Abfallfraktionen präsentiert.

    Diversity and novel lineages of black yeasts in Chaetothyriales from freshwater sediments in Spain (2023)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 51 no. 1, pp. 194-228
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-06
    Description: Black yeasts comprise a group of Ascomycota of the order Chaetothyriales with highly variable morphology, \na great diversity of ecological niches and life cycles. Despite the ubiquity of these fungi, their diversity in freshwater \nsediments is still poorly understood. During a survey of culturable Ascomycota from river and stream sediments \nin various sampling sites in Spain, we obtained 47 isolates of black yeasts by using potato dextrose agar supplemented with cycloheximide. A preliminary morphological study and sequence analyses of the internal transcribed \nspacer region (ITS) and the large subunit (LSU) of the nuclear rDNA revealed that most of the isolates belonged \nto the family Herpotrichiellaceae. We have confidently identified 30 isolates representing the following species: \nCapronia pulcherrima, Cladophialophora emmonsii, Exophiala equina, Exophiala pisciphila, Exophiala radicis, and \nPhialophora americana. However, we encountered difficulty in assigning 17 cultures to any known species within \nChaetothyriales. Combining phenotypic and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses based on the ITS, LSU, \xce\xb2-tubulin \n(tub2) and translation elongation factor 1-\xce\xb1 (tef1-\xce\xb1) gene markers, we propose the new genus Aciculomyces in the \nHerpotrichiellaceae to accommodate the novel species Aciculomyces restrictus. Other novel species in this family \ninclude Cladophialophora denticulata, Cladophialophora heterospora, Cladophialophora irregularis, Exophiala \ncandelabrata, Exophiala dehoogii, Exophiala ramosa, Exophiala verticillata and Phialophora submersa. The new \nspecies Cyphellophora spiralis, closely related to Cyphellophora suttonii, is described, and the phylogeny of the \ngenus Anthopsis in the family Cyphellophoraceae is discussed. By utilizing these four markers, we were able to \nstrengthen the phylogenetic resolution and provide more robust taxonomic assessments within the studied group. \nOur findings indicate that freshwater sediments may serve as a reservoir for intriguing black yeasts, which warrant \nfurther investigation to address gaps in phylogenetic relationships, particularly within Herpotrichiellaceae.

    Stop black and white thinking: Russula subgenus Compactae (Russulaceae, Russulales) in Europe revised (2023)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 51 no. 1, pp. 152-193
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-06
    Description: Russula subgenus Compactae is a group of ectomycorrhizal basidiomycetes, usually with large pileate \nfruitbodies. European members of the group are characterised by the absence of bright colours on the surfaces of \ntheir pilei, the context turning grey to black after cutting, the abundance of short lamellulae in the hymenophore, and \nspores with an inamyloid suprahilar spot and with low reticulate ornamentation. Our multi-locus phylogenetic study \nconfirmed that this morphological delimitation corresponds to a well-supported clade. Within this clade, 16 species \nare recognised in Europe, of which five belong to the R. albonigra lineage and were described in a previous study, \nwhile eleven are fully described in this study. The application of the names R. acrifolia, R. adusta, R. anthracina, \nR. atramentosa, R. densissima, R. nigricans and R. roseonigra is based on the position of sequences retrieved from \ntypes or authentic material. Based on type sequences, R. fuliginosa is synonymised with R. anthracina and two \nvarieties of R. anthracina are considered synonyms of R. atramentosa. The application of the name R. densifolia \nis based on a morphological match with the traditional species interpretation and the neotype specimen. Three \nspecies are described as new, R. marxmuelleriana sp. nov., R. picrophylla sp. nov. and R. thuringiaca sp. nov. This \nstudy recognises three major lineages and two species with isolated positions within the European Compactae \nand a morphological barcode was assigned to the species using an analysis of 23 selected characters. A search of \npublicly available sequences from the UNITE database revealed that the majority of species are host tree generalists and widely distributed in temperate and Mediterranean areas of Europe. Russula adusta is the only species so \nfar proven to form ectomycorrhiza exclusively with conifers.

    Last call for 1.5 degrees : COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh schedules fund for loss and damage for departure while mitigation stays grounded (2023)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-12
    Description: The twenty-seventh Conference of the Parties (COP27) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Sharm el-Sheikh made history by for the first time ever discussing and ultimately even agreeing to establish a fund to address loss and damage caused by climate change. However, the conference did little to limit the occurrence of loss and damage in the first place by containing the extent of climate change. This article discusses the conference's outcomes in the areas of mitigation and adaptation, loss and damage, the Global Stocktake, cooperation under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, climate finance, and gender-responsiveness. While modest progress can be observed, it is too slow to actually achieve the objectives of the Paris Agreement. This pace is leading many, not least the most vulnerable countries, to search for parallel arenas of cooperation.

    Ithaginini, a new family‐group name for the Blood Pheasant Ithaginis cruentus and resurrection of Lerwini for the Snow Partridge Lerwa lerwa (Phasianidae) (2023)
    In:  Avian Systematics vol. 2 no. 1, pp. 1-7
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-10
    Description: Recent phylogenetic studies have agreed that the Snow Partridge Lerwa lerwa and the Blood Pheasant Ithaginis cruentus should be placed in Phasianinae as the successive sister taxa to all other members of this clade. We suggest that each of these species should be recognized as a separate tribe. The family‐group name Lerwini von Boetticher, 1939 is here resurrected for Lerwa lerwa. We also show that the family‐group name Ithagininae Wolters, 1976, is unavailable for Ithaginis cruentus. We therefore describe a new family‐group name Ithaginini.

    Apalodermatinae, a new family-group name for the African trogons (Trogonidae), with clarification of the authorship of Harpactini (2023)
    In:  Avian Systematics vol. 2 no. 3, pp. 45-52
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-10
    Description: Phylogenomic analysis provides strong evidence for reciprocal monophyly of African, New World and Asian trogons. The family-group name Trogonini is available for the New World trogons, whereas the clades of African and Asian trogons have been named ‘Apaloderminae’ Sibley and Ahlquist, 1985, and ‘Harpactini’ Sibley, Ahlquist and Monroe, 1986, respectively. However, we demonstrate that the latter two names did not meet the requirements of the ICZN Code (1999) and are therefore unavailable. We review past usage of family-group names of the trogons and show that no name is available for the clade of African trogons. To remedy this, we describe this taxon and make a family-group name available. We show that the correct authorship of the family-group name of the Asian trogons is Harpactini S.F. Baird (1851).

    Description: Als die 15-jährige Greta Thunberg an einem Freitag im August 2018 vor dem schwedischen Parlamentsgebäude in Stockholm ihren einsamen Klimastreik begann, ahnte niemand, dass sie in den Folgejahren unter anderem auf zwei Weltklimakonferenzen und vor der UN-Vollversammlung als Repräsentantin der größten Jugendbewegung der Welt - Fridays for Future - vielbeachtete Reden halten würde. Das, was Greta Thunberg auf der Weltbühne der Politik gelungen ist, sollte auch klimaschutzengagierten Schülerinnen in der Kommunalpolitik ermöglicht werden. Sie sollten von Entscheidungsträgerinnen und Entscheidungsträgern gehört und ernst genommen werden. Um ihren Forderungen für klimafreundliche Schulen auch gegenüber Kommunalpolitikerinnen und Kommunalpolitikern mehr Nachdruck verleihen zu können, müssen sie aber auch gestärkt und qualifiziert werden. So die Kernanliegen des Projekts Schools4Future, welches vom Wuppertal Institut sowie dem Büro Ö-quadrat aus Freiburg durchgeführt und vom Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz gefördert wird.

    Right-wing and populist support for climate mitigation policies : evidence from Poland and its carbon-intensive Silesia region (2022)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-03-24
    Description: Research on environmental behaviour is often overlooked in literature on regime destabilization in energy transitions. This study addresses that gap by focusing on socio-political and demographic factors shaping support for carbon regime destabilization policies in one of the most carbon-intensive regions of Europe. Carbon-intensive industries, especially coal mining and coal-based power generation, are often concentrated in a few carbon-intensive regions. Therefore, decarbonization actions will affect those regions particularly strongly. Correspondingly, carbon-intensive regions often exert significant political influence on the two climate mitigation policies at the national level. Focusing on Poland, we investigate socio-political and demographic factors that correlate with the approval or rejection of the two climate mitigation policies: increasing taxes on fossil fuels such as oil, gas, and coal and using public money to subsidize renewable energy such as wind and solar power in Poland and its carbon-intensive Silesia region. Using logistic regression with individual-level data derived from the 2016 European Social Survey (ESS) and the 2014 Chapel Hill Expert Survey (CHES), we find party-political ideology to be an important predictor at the national level but much less so at the regional level. Specifically, voting for right-wing party is not a divisive factor for individual support of the two climate mitigation policies either nationally or regionally. More interestingly, populism is a strong factor in support of increasing taxes on fossil fuel in the carbon-intensive Silesia region but is less important concerning in support of using public money to subsidize renewable energy in Poland overall. These results show the heterogeneity of right-wing party and populism within the support for the two climate mitigation policies. Socio-demographic factors, especially age, gender, education level, employment status, and employment sector, have even more complex and heterogeneous components in support of the two climate mitigation policies at the national and regional levels. Identifying the complex socio-political and demographic factors of climate mitigation policies across different national versus carbon-intensive regional contexts is an essential step for generating in situ decarbonization strategies.

    Turning point Glasgow? : An assessment of the climate conference COP26 (2022)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-02-06
    Description: The Glasgow climate conference marked a symbolic juncture, lying half-way between the adoption of the UNFCCC in 1992 and the year 2050 in which according to the IPCC special report on the 1.5°C limit net zero CO2 emissions need to be reached, globally, in order to maintain a good chance of achieving the 1.5°C limit. This article undertakes an assessment of what the UNFCCC and in particular the Paris Agreement and its implementation process have actually achieved so far up to and including the results of the Glasgow conference. The article discusses efforts at ambition raising both within and outside the formal diplomatic process, the finalization of the implementation rules of the Paris Agreement, as well as progress on gender responsiveness, climate finance, adaptation and loss and damage. In summary, the Paris Agreement and its implementation can be considered a success as it is having a discernible impact on the behavior of parties as well as on non-party actors. However, significant further efforts will be required to actually achieve the objectives of the Agreement.

    Diversity of Sporocadaceae (pestalotioid fungi) from Rosa in China (2022)
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 49 no. 1, pp. 201-260
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-20
    Description: Rosa (Rosaceae) is an important ornamental and medicinal plant genus worldwide, with several species being cultivated in China. Members of Sporocadaceae (pestalotioid fungi) are globally distributed and include endophytes, saprobes but also plant pathogens, infecting a broad range of host plants on which they can cause important plant diseases. Although several Sporocadaceae species were recorded to inhabit Rosa spp., the taxa occurring on Rosa remain largely unresolved. In this study, a total of 295 diseased samples were collected from branches, fruits, leaves and spines of eight Rosa species (R. chinensis, R. helenae, R. laevigata, R. multiflora, R. omeiensis, R. rugosa, R. spinosissima and R. xanthina) in Gansu, Henan, Hunan, Qinghai, Shaanxi Provinces and the Ningxia Autonomous Region of China. Subsequently 126 strains were obtained and identified based on comparisons of DNA sequence data. Based on these results 15 species residing in six genera of Sporocadaceae were delineated, including four known species (Pestalotiopsis chamaeropis, Pes. rhodomyrtus, Sporocadus sorbi and Spo. trimorphus) and 11 new species described here as Monochaetia rosarum, Neopestalotiopsis concentrica, N. subepidermalis, Pestalotiopsis tumida, Seimatosporium centrale, Seim. gracile, Seim. nonappendiculatum, Seim. parvum, Seiridium rosae, Sporocadus brevis, and Spo. spiniger. This study also represents the first report of Pes. chamaeropis, Pes. rhodomyrtus and Spo. sorbi on Rosa. The overall data revealed that Pestalotiopsis was the most prevalent genus, followed by Seimatosporium, while Pes. chamaeropis and Pes. rhodomyrtus were the two most prevalent species. Analysis of Sporocadaceae abundance on Rosa species and plant organs revealed that spines of R. chinensis had the highest species diversity.

    Description: During extensive surveys of global Phytophthora diversity 14 new species detected in natural ecosystems in Chile, Indonesia, USA(Louisiana), Sweden, Ukraine and Vietnam were assigned to Phytophthora major Clade 10 based on a multigene phylogeny of nine nuclear and three mitochondrial gene regions. Clade 10 now comprises three subclades. Subclades 10a and 10b contain species with nonpapillate sporangia, a range of breeding systems and a mainly soil- and waterborne lifestyle. These include the previously described P. afrocarpa, P. gallica and P. intercalaris and eight of the new species: P. ludoviciana, P. procera, P. pseudogallica, P. scandinavica, P. subarctica, P. tenuimura, P. tonkinensis and P. ukrainensis. In contrast, all species in Subclade 10c have papillate sporangia and are self-fertile (or homothallic) with an aerial lifestyle including the known P. boehmeriae, P. gondwanensis, P. kernoviae and P. morindae and the new species P. celebensis, P. chilensis, P. javanensis, P. multiglobulosa, P. pseudochilensis and P. pseudokernoviae. All new Phytophthora species differed from each other and from related species by their unique combinations of morphological characters, breeding systems, cardinal temperatures and growth rates. The biogeography and evolutionary history of Clade 10 are discussed. We propose that the three subclades originated via the early divergence of pre-Gondwanan ancestors 〉 175 Mya into water- and soilborne and aerially dispersed lineages and subsequently underwent multiple allopatric and sympatric radiations during their global spread.

    A revision of the genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae) in Sumatra (Indonesia) (2022)
    In:  Blumea: Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants vol. 68, pp. 1-25
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-17
    Description: Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is a very large genus of over 1200 species of herbs, shrubs and trees occurring \nmainly in the (sub)tropics. The major diversity of Croton is within the Neotropics; and there are comparatively few \nspecies in South-East Asia. This contribution provides a revision of Croton from the Sumatran region in Indonesia, \nincluding descriptions and a determination key. In total sixteen species are recognized for Sumatra, including four \nspecies new to science, C. beccarii, C. scalaeus, C. simalurensis, and C. viridifolius. Two new synonyms and \nlectotypification of numerous names are also included. Besides a taxonomic treatment, a molecular analysis, using \nthe nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS), based on former data extended with Sumatran species, \nwas performed to create a phylogeny that places the Sumatran species in a phylogenetic context. In total 13 new \nsequences were created, which were combined with 56 sequences obtained from GenBank. The results from the \nphylogenetic analysis, based on Bayesian inference, are in line with the phylogeny as published for mainly the \nAustralian species of Croton by Van Ee et al. (2015).

    Getting municipal energy management systems ISO 50001 certified : a study with 28 European municipalities (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-05-15
    Description: Managing energy use by municipalities should be an important part of local energy and climate policy. The ISO 50001 standard constitutes an internationally recognized catalogue of requirements for systematic energy management. Currently, this standard is mostly implemented by companies. Our study presents an approach where consultants supported 28 European municipalities in establishing energy management systems. A majority (71%) of these municipalities had achieved ISO 50001 certification by the end of our study. We also conducted two surveys to learn more about motivations and challenges when it comes to establishing municipal energy management systems. We found that organizational challenges and resource constraints were the most important topics in this regard. Based on the experiences in our study we present lessons learned regarding supporting municipalities in establishing energy management systems.

    The green hydrogen puzzle : towards a German policy framework for industry (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-05-15
    Description: Green hydrogen will play a key role in building a climate-neutral energy-intensive industry, as key technologies for defossilising the production of steel and basic chemicals depend on it. Thus, policy-making needs to support the creation of a market for green hydrogen and its use in industry. However, it is unclear how appropriate policies should be designed, and a number of challenges need to be addressed. Based on an analysis of the ongoing German debate on hydrogen policies, this paper analyses how policy-making for green hydrogen development may support industry defossilisation. For the assessment of policy instruments, a simplified multi-criteria analysis (MCA) is used with an innovative approach that derives criteria from specific challenges. Four challenges and seven relevant policy instruments are identified. The results of the MCA reveal the potential of each of the selected instruments to address the challenges. The paper furthermore outlines how instruments might be combined in a policy package that supports industry defossilisation, creates synergies and avoids trade-offs. The paper's impact may reach beyond the German case, as the challenges are not specific to the country. The results are relevant for policy-makers in other countries with energy-intensive industries aiming to set the course towards a hydrogen future.

    Towards a digital product passport fit for contributing to a circular economy (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-05-15
    Description: The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a concept of a policy instrument particularly pushed by policy circles to contribute to a circular economy. The preliminary design of the DPP is supposed to have product-related information compiled mainly by manufactures and, thus, to provide the basis for more circular products. Given the lack of scientific debate on the DPP, this study seeks to work out design options of the DPP and how these options might benefit stakeholders in a product's value chain. In so doing, we introduce the concept of the DPP and, then, describe the existing regime of regulated and voluntary product information tools focusing on the role of stakeholders. These initial results are reflected in an actor-centered analysis on potential advantages gained through the DPP. Data is generated through desk research and a stakeholder workshop. In particular, by having explored the role the DPP for different actors, we find substantial demand for further research on a variety of issues, for instance, on how to reduce red tape and increase incentives for manufacturers to deliver certain information and on how or through what data collection tool (e.g., database) relevant data can be compiled and how such data is provided to which stakeholder group. We call upon other researchers to close the research gaps explored in this paper also to provide better policy direction on the DPP.

    Fungi of quarantine concern for China I: Dothideomycetes (2021)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 47, pp. 45-105
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-09
    Description: The current list of Chinese quarantine pests includes 130 fungal species. However, recent changes in the taxonomy of fungi following the one fungus = one name initiative and the implementation of DNA phylogeny in taxonomic revisions, resulted in many changes of these species names, necessitating an update of the current list. In addition, many quarantine fungi lack modern morphological descriptions and authentic DNA sequences, posing significant challenges for the development of diagnostic protocols. The aim of the present study was to review the taxonomy and names of the 33 Chinese quarantine fungi in Dothideomycetes, and provide reliable DNA barcodes to facilitate rapid identification. Of these, 23 names were updated according to the single name nomenclature system, including one new combination, namely Cophinforma tumefaciens comb. nov. (syn. Sphaeropsis tumefaciens). On the basis of phylogenetic analyses and morphological comparisons, a new genus Xenosphaeropsis is introduced to accommodate the monotypic species Xenosphaeropsis pyriputrescens comb. nov. (syn. Sphaeropsis pyriputrescens), the causal agent of a post-harvest disease of pears. Furthermore, four lectotypes (Ascochyta petroselini, Mycosphaerella ligulicola, Physalospora laricina, Sphaeria lingam), three epitypes (Ascochyta petroselini, Phoma lycopersici, Sphaeria lingam), and two neotypes (Ascochyta pinodella, Deuterophoma tracheiphila) are designated to stabilise the use of these names. A further four reference strains are introduced for Cophinforma tumefaciens, Helminthosporium solani, Mycocentro spora acerina, and Septoria linicola. In addition, to assist future studies on these important pathogens, we sequenced and assembled whole genomes for 17 species, including Alternaria triticina, Boeremia foveata, B. lycopersici, Cladosporium cucumerinum, Didymella glomerata, Didymella pinodella, Diplodia mutila, Helminthosporium solani, Mycocentrospora acerina, Neofusicoccum laricinum, Parastagonospora pseudonodorum, Plenodomus libanotidis, Plenodomus lingam, Plenodomus tracheiphilus, Septoria petroselini, Stagonosporopsis chrysanthemi, and Xenosphaeropsis pyriputrescens.

    Hygrophorus sect. Olivaceoumbrini: new boundaries, extended biogeography and unexpected diversity unravelled by transatlantic studies (2021)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 46, pp. 272-312
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-15
    Description: As currently delineated, Hygrophorus sect. Olivaceoumbrini is a polyphyletic assembly within subg. Colorati, encompassing glutinous and pigmented taxa. According to available literature, between a dozen and twenty species may belong in the section, mostly represented in continental and boreal forests of Europe and North America. However, the limited phylogenetic and biogeographic coverage of the genus does not presently allow for a reliable assessment of its taxonomic boundaries, nor does it provide a complete picture of species diversity within sect. Olivaceoumbrini. In an ongoing effort to confer an evolutionary backbone to Hygrophorus systematics, we assembled and analysed a dataset comprising 268 intercontinental sequences, including holotypes of 7 taxa previously not positioned phylogenetically, and enriched with collections from largely unexplored Mediterranean and Anatolian ecosystems. Overall, 30 clades are identified within 5 distinct lineages, including 11 species putatively new to science. Seven of these are formally described here as H. agathosmoides, H. albofloccosus, H. canadensis, H. limosus, H. marcocontui, H. pinophilus and H. pustulatoides spp. nov. This enriched coverage of section Olivaceoumbrini s.lat. calls for a re-evaluation of its natural boundaries into a core monophyletic clade, including H. olivaceoalbus and five closely related lookalikes, as well as the assignment of the section rank to the four remaining lineages: sect. Fuscocinerei sect. nov., sect. Limacini sect. nov., sect. Nudolidi sect. nov. and sect. Tephroleuci, respectively. We also stabilize the usage of six historical names, H. glutinifer, H. hyacinthinus, H. mesotephrus, H. olivaceoalbus, H. pustulatus and H. tephroleucus, through designation of two neotypes, three lectotypes and four epitypes.

    Cortinarius subgenus Leprocybe in Europe: expanded Sanger and Next Generation Sequencing unveil unexpected diversity in the Mediterranean (2021)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 46, pp. 188-215
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-23
    Description: Molecular phylogenies in the past decade have demonstrated that the described diversity of Cortinarius is still underestimated, especially outside continental and boreal ecoregions where the genus has been historically investigated. We tackled this issue by revisiting the so far unresolved subgenus Leprocybe, and focused on the largely unexplored Mediterranean hotspot of biodiversity. The sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of 161 vouchered collections from Austria, Cyprus, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, including 16 types, allowed for the delineation of 11 species in this lineage, three of them recognised as new to science and formally introduced as C. jimenezianus, C. selinolens and C. viridans spp. nov., respectively. Interestingly, the newly described species exhibit a strict Mediterranean distribution, and one of them is putatively endemic to the island of Cyprus, highlighting the remarkable potential of this neglected ecoregion to uncover further undescribed diversity of Cortinarius in the future. The present work also unveils 23 synonymies in this subgenus, as well as previously undetected crypticism within C. venetus. Next Generation Sequencing carried out on three old and contaminated holotypes, successfully decrypts their phylogenetic identity, including that of C. leproleptopus, finally settling the long-standing controversy over the taxonomic status of this species. A brief overview of each species in the subgenus is lastly provided and a key is proposed to facilitate the identification of presently known European taxa of Leprocybe in the field.

    Mating genes in Calonectria and evidence for a heterothallic ancestral state (2020)
    Naturalis Biodiversity Center
    In:  Persoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi vol. 45, pp. 163-176
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-07
    Description: The genus Calonectria includes many important plant pathogens with a wide global distribution. In order to better understand the reproductive biology of these fungi, we characterised the structure of the mating type locus and flanking genes using the genome sequences for seven Calonectria species. Primers to amplify the mating type genes in other species were also developed. PCR amplification of the mating type genes and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses were used to investigate the mating strategies and evolution of mating type in a collection of 70 Calonectria species residing in 10 Calonectria species complexes. Results showed that the organisation of the MAT locus and flanking genes is conserved. In heterothallic species, a novel MAT gene, MAT1-2-12 was identified in the MAT1-2 idiomorph; the MAT1-1 idiomorph, in most cases, contained the MAT1-1-3 gene. Neither MAT1-1-3 nor MAT1-2-12 was found in homothallic Calonectria (Ca.) hongkongensis, Ca. lateralis, Ca. pseudoturangicola and Ca. turangicola. Four different homothallic MAT locus gene arrangements were observed. Ancestral state reconstruction analysis provided evidence that the homothallic state was basal in Calonectria and this evolved from a heterothallic ancestor.

    Sustainable economy (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-11-21
    Description: This paper claims that countries of the North must develop a new model of wealth - one less harmful to the environment and capable of being applied throughout the world. There are reasons to be hopeful they will do so: first, they have the means at their disposal; second, it is a misconception that environmental protection is a cost; and third, there is mounting pressure for change as indicated by air, water and soil quality data. The challenge is to move the emphasis away from end-of-the-pipe pollution control to improving resource productivity. The best way of doing this is through the imposition of "green taxes" to raise resource prices. If governments compensate by cutting other taxes to make the change revenue-neutral, there would be real benefits to the environment and the economy, particularly in developing countries.
