Abstract

La 4ème de couverture indique : "Deux degrés, cela semble peu, mais c'est énorme. La température terrestre a déjà augmenté d'un degré depuis l'époque préindustrielle. Les émissions de carbone liées aux activités humaines en sont les premières responsables. Des bouleversements climatiques sont en cours et leurs impacts ne vont que s'aggraver. Il est presque sûr que nous ne tiendrons pas l'objectif, solennellement acté par les gouvernements du monde, de contenir le réchauffement climatique en dessous de 2 °C. La raison de cette incapacité tient à la triple dépendance de nos sociétés (technique, économique, culturelle) aux énergies fossiles, qui en constituent un soubassement aussi diffus que puissant. La science nous annonce qu'à ce rythme le pire est à craindre. Mais cela n'induit pas une fuite individuelle. Nous devons, au contraire, faire face collectivement. Constatant l'impossibilité actuelle de changer radicalement nos modes de vie et d'organisation, ce livre nous engage néanmoins à suivre plusieurs voies réalistes d'adaptation et de réforme pour préparer un futur moins sombre."

Abstract

CO2 emissions from energy production and consumption are a major contributor to climate change.  Thus, stabilising CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere by reducing these emissions is an increasingly urgent international necessity.  Carbon capture and storage (CCS) represents one of the most promising potential solutions to contain emissions resulting from continued use of coal and other fossil fuels.  However, challenges such as a lack of legal and regulatory frameworks to guide near-term demonstration projects and long-term technology expansion must be addressed to facilitate the expanded use of CCS.    In October 2006, the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF) convened with legal experts,to discuss the range of legal issues associated with expanded use of CCS and to identify ways to facilitate further CCS development and implementation  Participants examined gaps and barriers to the deployment of CCS and identified recommendations to guide further development of appropriate legal and regulatory frameworks.    This publication provides policymakers with a detailed summary of the main legal issues surrounding the CCS debate, including up-to-date background information, case studies and conclusions on the best legal and regulatory approaches to advance CCS.  These strategies can be used to enable further development, deployment and demonstration of CCS technology, potentially an essential element in global efforts to mitigate climate change.

Abstract

As governments and institutions work to ameliorate the effects of anthropogenic CO2 emissions on global climate, there is an increasing need to understand how land-use and land-cover change is coupled to the carbon cycle, and how land management can be used to mitigate their effects. This book brings an interdisciplinary team of fifty-eight international researchers to share their novel approaches, concepts, theories and knowledge on land use and the carbon cycle. It discusses contemporary theories and approaches combined with state-of-the-art technologies. The central theme is that land use and land management are tightly integrated with the carbon cycle and it is necessary to study these processes as a single natural-human system to improve carbon accounting and mitigate climate change. The book is an invaluable resource for advanced students, researchers, land-use planners and policy makers in natural resources, geography, forestry, agricultural science, ecology, atmospheric science and environmental economics.
