The Origin of the 12 Year Timeline
The 12 years in which we have to act started in October 2018. From Inside Climate News Aug 27, 2019
What Does '12 Years to Act on Climate Change' (Now 11 Years) Really Mean?
“The number began drawing attention in 2018, when the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released a report describing what it would take to keep global temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius, a goal of the Paris climate agreement. The report explained that countries would have to cut their anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions, such as from power plants and vehicles, to net zero by around 2050. To reach that goal, it said, CO2 emissions would have to start dropping "well before 2030" and be on a path to fall by about 45 percent by around 2030 (12 years away at that time).”
Resilience Proposals
Read the paper:
“Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy” – Jem Bendell – an occasional paper from the Institute of Leadership and Sustainability (IFLAS) at the University of Cumbria, UK – July 2018. Prof. Bendell raises the specter of how to adapt…
“the deep adaptation agenda of resilience, relinquishment and restoration can be a useful framework for community dialogue in the face of climate change. Resilience asks us “how do we keep what we really want to keep?” Relinquishment asks us “what do we need to let go of in order to not make matters worse?” Restoration asks us “what can we bring back to help us with the coming difficulties and tragedies?”
Project Drawdown and Available Technology
“The 100 most substantive solutions to reverse global warming, based on meticulous research by leading scientists and policymakers around the world“
“Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming
” – ed Paul Hawken – Penguin Books – Apr 2017 ★
But how we manage investments has an effect too. see:
Did Project Drawdown miss a crucial climate solution? – GreenBiz, Sasja Beslik – March 2018
