Scope

Purpose

A tentative research question:

What are the impacts of climate change mitigation in Europe?

Definition

Variables

Variables that may be useful in this assessment:

• op_en:IA on carbon trade and its city-level impacts and all its variables
  • EC emission trade system (ETS) is imposed to Helsinki. What difference does this make to i) societal and ii) individual decisions related to a) transportation, b) heat and electricity production?
• op_en:Cost-benefit assessment on composite traffic in Helsinki Composite traffic project (2005)
  • What is X% of private car trips would be aggregated and organised centrally?
• op_en:Open assessment on the location of burden of greenhouse gas trade
• op_en:Bioenergy in Finland: effects on health and climate change
• op_en:Variable:Assessment:Catastrophic non-linear impacts of climate change
• op_en:Risk assessment on Hämeenkyrö municipal solid waste incinerator Hämeenkyrö project (2006)
  • What are the health impacts of PM2.5 and dioxin emissions from a planned MSWI in Hämeenkyrö?
• op_en:ERF of PM2.5 on mortality in general population
• op_en:Fine particles
• op_en:Gasbus - health impacts of Helsinki bus traffic GASBUS project (2004)
  • What are the impacts on mortality if busses in Helsinki are changed from diesel to natural gas or diesel with modern filters?
• op_en:Health and climate impacts of heat production in small municipalities (BIOHER)
  • In municipalities of size 2000-10000 inhabitants, what are the health and climate effects of heating systems? Options: centralised <10 MW facility burning a) heavy fuel oil or b) wood chips, or house-level heating with c) light oil, d) wood pellets, or e) electricity?
• op_en:Risk assessment of nitrate in drinking water Intarese WP3.4 first pass
  • What are the health impacts of nitrate in drinking water on infant methemoglobinaemia (iMetHb) in England and Wales?
• WP3.4 Assessment of the health impacts of bladder cancer associated with arsenic in drinking water Intarese WP3.4
• WP3.4 Assessment of the health impacts of bladder cancer associated with THMs in drinking water Intarese WP3.4
• WP3.4 Assessment of the health impacts of SGA associated with THMs in drinking water Intarese WP3.4
• en_op:HIA on climate change, air pollution, and indoor air SALVE project
  • What are the impacts of climate change on PM2.5 levels in Finland?
  • What are the interactions of climate change and energy efficiency needs of housing in Finland?
• KOPRA/Piltti projects
  • What are the health impacts of PM emissions from sources in Finland?
• Heimtsa: Noise case
  • What are the health impacts of noise in Europe?
• Heimtsa: outdoor air
  • What are the health impacts of outdoor air pollutants (notably PM, NOx, SO2, O3)
• Intarese WP3.2 Housing
  • What are the health impacts of energy efficiency measures on cold-induced diseases in UK?
• Intarese WP3.7 Climate
  • What are the health impacts of UV radiation changes and heat waves related to climate change?
• Intarese WP3.3 Agriculture
• Intarese WP3.5 Household chemicals
• Intarese WP3.6 Waste
  • What are the health impacts of waste incineration and related (dioxin,...?) emissions in (Italy?)?
• Hiwate
  • What are the health impacts of arsenic (As), trihalomethanes (THM), and microbes in drinking waster due to changes in:
    • bottled water consumption goes down and tap water up because people want to fight against climate change
    • raw water sources become worse because of climate change
    • raw water sources contaminate by microbes because of surface water coming from heavier rainfall and floods, induced by climate change
    • raw water scarcity leads to the use of microbially lower-quality raw water.
