Scope

Purpose

A tentative research question:

What are the impacts of climate change mitigation in Europe?

Definition

Variables

Learn about these other assessments and make suggestions about how that assessment could be merged into this larger assessment. Tasks are tentatively distributed to people, but you can suggest and comment on any study.

Variables that may be useful in this assessment:

• op_en:IA on carbon trade and its city-level impacts and all its variables Virpi
  • 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) Jouni
  • What is X% of private car trips would be aggregated and organised centrally?
• 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) Marko
  • 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) Pauliina
  • 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 Päivi, James
  • 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 Päivi, James
• WP3.4 Assessment of the health impacts of bladder cancer associated with THMs in drinking water Intarese WP3.4 Päivi, James
• WP3.4 Assessment of the health impacts of SGA associated with THMs in drinking water Intarese WP3.4 Päivi, James
• en_op:HIA on climate change, air pollution, and indoor air CLAIH project Marko, Juha P
  • 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 (finished already but data suits well in this project) Marko, Jouni
  • What are the health impacts of PM emissions from sources in Finland?
• Heimtsa: Noise case Erkki
  • What are the health impacts of noise in Europe?
• Heimtsa: outdoor air Alex, Jouni, Volker
  • What are the health impacts of outdoor air pollutants (notably PM, NOx, SO2, O3)
• Intarese WP3.2 Housing Ulla
  • What are the health impacts of energy efficiency measures on cold-induced diseases in UK?
• Intarese WP3.7 Climate Mikko
  • What are the health impacts of UV radiation changes and heat waves related to climate change?
• Intarese WP3.3 Agriculture Olli
• Intarese WP3.6 Waste Olli, Juha P
  • What are the health impacts of waste incineration and related (dioxin,...?) emissions in (Italy?)?
• Hiwate Päivi, James
  • 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.
• Something about agriculture, land use change and the impacts connected to those.
