DownScaling CLImate imPACTs and decarbonisation pathways in EU islands, and enhancing socioeconomic and non-market evaluation of Climate Change for Europe, for 2050 and beyond.

Descrizione del progetto

Le sfide dei cambiamenti climatici nelle isole europee

Le isole europee sono in prima linea per quanto riguarda i cambiamenti climatici. La loro vulnerabilità al riscaldamento globale non può essere sopravvalutata, ma la scarsa risoluzione spaziale delle proiezioni disponibili e modelli economici carenti ostacolano la capacità dei decisori politici di attuare misure efficaci. Il progetto SOCLIMPACT, finanziato dall’UE, affronterà questa lacuna critica. Modellando gli effetti dei cambiamenti climatici su scala ridotta e le loro ripercussioni socio-economiche, si propone di fornire informazioni accurate ai responsabili politici, agli operatori e alle parti interessate. Il progetto migliorerà la valutazione economica delle ripercussioni del clima, migliorerà la modellazione economica delle catene di impatto e agevolerà le decisioni politiche legate al clima per la crescita blu. Grazie a SOCLIMPACT, le isole europee avranno gli strumenti necessari per costruire la resilienza e tracciare un percorso sostenibile per il futuro.

Obiettivo

The warming of the climate system is unequivocal and continued emission of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and changes. Islands are particularly vulnerable to Climate Change (CC) consequences but the coarse spatial resolution of available projections makes it difficult to derive valid statements for islands. Moreover, science-based information about the economic impacts of CC in marine and maritime sectors is scarce, and current economic models lack of solid non-market assesment. Policy makers must have accurate information about likely impact chains and about the costs and benefits of possible strategies to implement efficient measures. SOCLIMPACT aims at modelling downscaled CC effects and their socioeconomic impacts in European islands for 2030–2100, in the context of the EU Blue Economy sectors, and assess corresponding decarbonisation and adaptation pathways, complementing current available projections for Europe, and nourishing actual economic models with non-market assessment, by:
• Developing a thorough understanding on how CC will impact the EU islands located in different regions of the world.
• Contributing to the improvement of the economic valuation of climate impacts by adopting revealed and stated preference methods.
• Increasing the effectiveness of the economic modelling of climate impact chains, through the implementation of an integrated methodological framework (GINFORS, GEM-E3 and non-market indicators).
• Facilitating climate-related policy decision making for Blue Growth, by ranking and mapping the more appropriate mitigation and adaptation strategies.
• Delivering accurate information to policy makers, practitioners and other relevant stakeholders.
SOCLIMPACT addresses completely this Work Programme providing advances in the economic valuation of climate-induced impacts, and in climate and economic models, allowing downscaled projections of complex impact chains, and facilitating the resilience capacity of these vulnerable lands.
