Japanese PM outlines green 'Fukuda vision‘ on 9th June

  • Japanese prime minister Yasuo Fukuda on Monday announced a new emissions trading trial set
  • Japanese prime minister Yasuo Fukuda on Monday announced a new emissions trading trial set

for this autumn and pledged to cut of 60-80 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions based on current levels by 2050.

  • Under the new ETS scheme, countries will be able to impose upper limits on greenhouse gas

p pp g g emissions and issue credits to large firms.

  • Japan will also set out a mid-term reduction target of a 14 per cent cut in emissions by 2020

based on of 2005 level, said Mr Fukuda.

  • Japan will contribute up to $1.2 billion to a new multilateral fund with the US and Britain to help

developing countries fight global warming, Mr Fukuda said in his speech.

  • Analysts said Tokyo is aiming to boost the perception that it is playing a leading role in fighting
  • Analysts said Tokyo is aiming to boost the perception that it is playing a leading role in fighting

climate change at the July G8 summit in Hokkaido, where world leaders will meet to discuss arrangements for the successor to the Kyoto protocol, which expires in 2012.

  • Japan says it will use more clean energy such as wind and solar and cut overall output,

consumption and waste.

  • Speaking at the Japan National Press Club, the Japanese premier outlined the 'Fukuda Vision',

saying: "We must see the transition to a low-carbon society as an opportunity for new economic growth " growth.

  • Japan is currently the world's fifth largest carbon emitter.

  • ne that should determine whether humanity can move toward a low-carbon society,

severing its dependence on fossil fuels and addressing challenges including global severing its dependence on fossil fuels and addressing challenges including global warming and resource depletion countries. (b) Long-term Goal With respect to the goal of achieving at least 50% reduction of global emissions by 2050 the G8 leaders agreed to seek to share and adopt it with all Parties to the 2050, the G8 leaders agreed to seek to share and adopt it with all Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. (c) Mid-term Goals In order to achieve absolute emission reductions in all developed nations, G8 leaders agreed to implement ambitious economy-wide mid-term goals agreed to implement ambitious economy-wide mid-term goals. (d) Sectoral Approach It was recognized that sectoral approaches are useful tools for achieving national emission objectives and for reducing GHG emissions. (e) Climate Investment Funds (e) Climate Investment Funds G8 leaders welcomed and supported the establishment of the Climate Investment Funds administered by the World Bank to support the efforts of developing countries, and welcomed commitments from other donors.

T iti i t l b i ti d t bli hi Transitioning to low-carbon societies and establishing an international research network on low-carbon societies

  • 5. To realize such long-term goals, it is necessary to change the

g g , y g current socio-economic structures and transition to low-carbon societies. In so doing there was general recognition of the importance of all the so doing, there was general recognition of the importance of all the countries to have a clear vision of low-carbon societies. Strong support for establishing an international research network of i tit ti i l d i th h l b i ti institutions involved in the research on low-carbon societies was shown by a number of countries, and other countries also expressed their support for the consideration of its establishment.

A ti t li l b i ti Actions to realize low-carbon societies

  • 6. To achieve low-carbon societies, all countries need innovations in

their lifestyle, production and consumption patterns, and social y p p p infrastructure in addition to technological innovations. It was recognized that technology transfer and capacity building are necessary to achieve low-carbon societies at the global scale. The necessary to achieve low carbon societies at the global scale. The importance of research and development, information infrastructures and institutional planning was also pointed out. It was highlighted that there is a need to promote further development of technologies that there is a need to promote further development of technologies such as carbon capture and storage and biofuels. Carbon offsetting was also recognized as an effective mechanism that provides a wide range of stakeholders such as citizens companies and range of stakeholders such as citizens, companies, and governments with opportunities to contribute to mitigation actions. It was observed that in shifting toward low-carbon societies, international cooperation on carbon offsets will play an important role.

Psychology of Behaviour Change

  • Encourage positive attitude
  • not “don’t” but “let’s do”
  • small individual actions can be cumulatively powerful (e.g.

recycling)

  • turn aspirations to be greener into actions that matter
  • turn aspirations to be greener into actions that matter
  • Change should be desirable – fashionable and fun!
  • Change mind set
  • Change mind-set
  • consumer items not as important as the service they provide
  • become aware that ownership carries responsibility
  • focus on quality-of-life rather than on mass-consumption and

disposal

  • Social responsibility and peer pressure
  • family, neighbours, colleagues

transition to LCS

  • “Developing countries” include a vast range of countries,

with differences in, for instance, population, natural , , p p , resource endowment, stage of economic development, as well as political or geological conditions. Therefore, It is not proper to elaborate LCS questions monotonally on is not proper to elaborate LCS questions monotonally on “developing countries”.

  • The Group elaborated the LCS issues with a broad time

framework of “LCS by 2050”, while the Group was fully recognizant of the urgency of climate actions, in g g y , particular, viz. extremely vulnerable countries. The Group also considered that actions towards “by 2050” would contain many early actions even in the near future term” contain many early actions even in the near future term .

Relationship between LCS and SD
