Mega case study is a European-wide (EU-30) assessment with the focus on climate change but several different aspects looked at the same time.
Scope
Purpose
What are the health effects of climate change mitigation and adaptation policies in Europe (EU-30)? Both effects of climate policies and effects of climate change are included.
Boundaries
- Temporal: Current situation to 2050. Special emphasis on years 2020, 2030, 2050.
- Spatial: EU-30
- Sectors: Energy supply and consumption with special emphasis on building heating/cooling, electricity use, and road transport; agriculture; water supply.
- Endpoints: Application costs, health impacts, health care costs, greenhouse gas emissions.
Scenarios
Global IPCC scenarios:
- Business-as-usual (BAU): IPCC A1B scenario as the reference scenario
- Policy scenario: IPCC B1 scenario most likely to lead to only +2 °C change in temperature
- Business-as-usual scenario: NEEDS reference scenario + GAINS reference scenario
- Policy scenario: NEEDS 450 ppm climate protection scenario + GAINS policy scenario
Both sets of scenarios are looked at separately, so in the analysis we will get four sets of results. In practice the first two are of the main interest.
- Global BAU + European BAU
- Global BAU + European policy scenario
- Global policy scenario + European BAU
- Global policy scenario + European policy scenario.
Intended users
- Policy-makers in the Copenhagen (Mexico City) process.
- National policy-makers.
Participants
- Intarese
- Heimtsa
- This is an open assessment. Anyone is welcome to participate.
