SLIDE 6 Stabilization Induced Low Carbon Transition
- There is no silver bullet
- Need to develop portfolio of technologies
- Significant stabilization induced transitions
in the second half of 21st century
- Stabilization induced technological change
would impose sizable GDP losses
- Technology & financial transfers are vital
for a cost-effective and fair stabilization regime
- Type of endogenous development path
matters to quantity and cost of mitigation
- Cost-effective Stabilization, e.g. at 550
ppmv level, would require mitigation in India even in case of low endogenous emissions scenarios
- Low endogenous emissions trajectory
would result from technology innovations and sustainable actions
- High economic growth does not mean high
emissions
