  2. Climate is a Global Common!? • Opneghagen 2009 climate is a geostrategic subject • Balancing reduction commitments, adaptation and mutual pressure • Can good guys (EU, CH, LIE, N) hope to be rewarded for good behaviour? • Climate neutrality by 2050 was agreed in Copenhagen 2009 and Cancun 2010: Developed countries must reduce their emissions by 80-95 % to halt warming at 2 C. • From talking to implementation… • Who can lead? How?

  3. EU 2050

  4. German Energy Concept, Sept. 2010 • Climate-damaging greenhouse gas emissions are to be reduced by 40% by 2020, 55% by 2030, 70% by 2040 and by 80 to 95% by 2050, compared to reference year 1990. • Primary energy consumption is to fall by 20% by 2020 and by 50% by 2050. • Energy productivity is to rise by 2.1% per year compared to final energy consumption. • Electricity consumption is to fall by 10% by 2020 and by 25% by 2050, compared to 2008. • Compared to 2008, heat demand in buildings is to be reduced by 20% by 2020, while primary energy demand is to fall by 80% by 2050. • Renewable energies are to achieve an 18% share of gross final energy consumption by 2020, a 30% share by 2030, 45% by 2040 and 60% by 2050. • By 2020 renewables are to have a share of at least 35% in gross electricity consumption, a 50% share by 2030, 65% by 2040 and 80% by 2050.

  5. Proposal Slovenia 2060

  6. Climate Change and the Alps? • More vulnerable than other regions • Biodiversity, Forests, Water – ecosystem services • Good examples, initiatives, projects • Region with leading technologies • Poor performance on emission reduction in transport! • Strong public support in Alpine regions • Schaan Memorandum CIPRA 2006 • The Action Plan on Climate Change in the Alps, Alpine Conference 2009 • Alpine Space Programme – many projects on mitigation and adaptation

  7. ACTION PLAN ON CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE ALPS, Evian 2009 • Making the Alps an exemplary territory for prevention and adaptation to climate change • Spatial and land planning • Energy industry • Transport industry • Tourism industry

  8. ALPSTAR: MAKE BEST PRACTICE MINIMUM STANDARD

  9. Project Objectives • To create good practice transfer platform for strategies toward carbon neutrality • To improve transboundary, cross-sectoral and inter-policy-level cooperation with ALPSTAR Policy Board and Alpine Convention. • To promote integrative and participatory approach in development of cross-sectoral strategies • To empower local and regional administrative actors and planners to become facilitators of change • To encourage pooling, transfer and implementation of innovative and efficient good practices from and to other Alpine regions and beyond.

  10. Partners • Government Office of the Republic of Slovenia of Climate Change • Soča Valley Development Centre • Federal State of Vorarlberg, Department of economic affairs • UNEP Vienna - Interim Secretariat of the Carpathian Convention • European Academy Bolzano • Alpine Town of the Year Association • Ecomodel Achental • CIPRA France - French committee of the International Commission forthe Protection of the Alps • Rhônalpénergie-Environnement • Lombardy Foundation for the Environment • Veneto Region – Industry and Handicraft Department • Bureau for spatial development and geo-information of the canton of St.Gallen • Liechtenstein Office of Forests, Nature and Land Management
