Emission reductions needed to reach the Paris Agreement goals rely heavily on carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). However, CCS implementation is lagging due to complex interactions of societal and technological factors. Attempts to enhance CCS implementation focus primarily on lowering technological and economic barriers, assuming that societal support will develop if public awareness is increased. This, however, overlooks the interdependence between CCS public support, policy action and industrial implementation. Productive interaction between these factors requires mutual trust between stakeholders. Scaling up the technology will thus require appreciating the mutual dependencies and nurturing trust. Genuine investments in public trust go beyond ‘educating the public’, supporting deliberative initiatives instead and allowing for real influence of relevant stakeholders. Our recommendations include designing inclusive engagement processes, safeguarding public participation rights, involving independent scientific expertise, supporting deliberative initiatives like citizen assemblies, and fostering transparency through community-led platforms to build trust in CCS implementation.
实现《巴黎协定》目标所需的减排在很大程度上依赖于二氧化碳捕集与封存(CCS)。然而,由于社会和技术因素的复杂相互作用,CCS的实施滞后。加强CCS实施的尝试主要集中在降低技术和经济障碍,假设如果公众意识提高,社会支持将得到发展。然而,这忽略了CCS公众支持、政策行动和工业实施之间的相互依存关系。这些因素之间的有效互动需要利益相关者之间的相互信任。因此,扩大这项技术的规模需要重视相互依赖并培养信任。对公众信任的真正投资超越了“教育公众”,而是支持审议倡议,并允许相关利益攸关方发挥真正的影响。我们的建议包括设计包容性参与流程,保障公众参与权,让独立的科学专家参与进来,支持公民集会等审议倡议,并通过社区主导的平台提高透明度,以建立对CCS实施的信任。

Groundhog Day at the 2024 United Nations biodiversity conference: What COP 16 can teach us for reforming environmental summits 2024年联合国生物多样性大会的土拨鼠日:COP 16对改革环境峰会的启示

With 23,000 registered participants and unprecedented media attention, the 16th conference of the parties (COP) to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in Cali, Colombia, was the largest in the 32-year history of these biannual meetings.
In terms of successes, the Cali conference established a new subsidiary body to protect concerns of indigenous communities and local populations as defenders of nature, along with a new voluntary mechanism on benefit-sharing. The Cali COP may also be remembered for its civil society zone which turned into a vibrant platform of social and cultural encounters.
On a more critical note though, negotiations in Cali shared the fate of the climate COP in Baku just two weeks later and, arguably, of inflated environmental summits in general. They were slowed down by typical bargaining strategies and stalemates and failed to address crucial implementation, financing and review gaps.
While the conference was suspended unceremoniously on November 2, 2024, the much more concise resumed sessions in December 2024 and February 2025 achieved crucial breakthroughs on these matters.
A lesson learned from these turnarounds is to complement larger COPs more regularly with smaller and solution-oriented meetings with decision-making power – instead of using such formats only for firefighting. Moreover, to avoid exaggerated greenwashing and lobbying like in Cali, future COPs should exhibit a more equitable representation of non-governmental actors and benefit from a more careful selection process of conference venues.
在哥伦比亚卡利举行的《联合国生物多样性公约》(CBD)第16次缔约方大会(COP)有2.3万名登记参加者,媒体的关注前所未有,是此类会议32年历史上规模最大的一次。就成功而言,卡利会议建立了一个新的附属机构,以保护土著社区和当地居民作为自然捍卫者所关心的问题,并建立了一个新的利益分享自愿机制。卡利缔约方会议也可能因其公民社会区而被铭记,该地区成为一个充满活力的社会和文化交流平台。但更重要的是,卡利的谈判与两周后的巴库气候大会(COP)以及总体上夸大的环境峰会的命运如出一辙。由于典型的讨价还价策略和僵局,谈判进展缓慢,未能解决关键的执行、融资和审查差距。虽然会议于2024年11月2日非正式地暂停,但在2024年12月和2025年2月举行的更为简洁的复会在这些问题上取得了重大突破。从这些转变中得到的教训是,更定期地用更小的、面向解决方案的、具有决策权的会议来补充大型缔约方会议,而不是将这种形式仅用于救火。此外,为了避免像在卡利那样夸张地粉饰绿色和游说,未来的缔约方会议应该更加公平地代表非政府行动者,并从更仔细地选择会议场地的过程中受益。

Pachamama, Mother Earth, faces a mass extinction threat. A radical transformation in human systems is essential, guided by equity and justice at local and global scales. This transformation must reconfigure the World-System's power structures, impacting the ecosphere (ecological functions, biodiversity, and resource regimes) and the ethnosphere (ontological, epistemological, and legal pluralism). Together, these shape the Pluriverse—a planet of many worlds. The status quo is unsustainable. Effective solutions must prioritize a just transition that integrates the pluriverse. Alternatives from the so-called Global South offer valuable tools for this shift, such as the Rights of Nature, which views nature as a rights-bearing entity, not merely an object of regulation. The Llurimagua case—a dispute over a mining concession in Ecuador's cloud forest—illustrates this approach, providing a unique opportunity to rethink Earth System Governance and address the Anthropocene Gap (i.e., disconnect with Earth System Law), crucial for tackling planetary health challenges.
地球母亲帕查玛玛面临着大规模灭绝的威胁。在地方和全球范围内以公平和正义为指导,对人类制度进行彻底变革至关重要。这种转变必须重新配置世界体系的权力结构,影响生态圈(生态功能、生物多样性和资源制度)和民族圈(本体论、认识论和法律多元化)。这些共同构成了多元宇宙——一个由许多世界组成的星球。现状是不可持续的。有效的解决办法必须优先考虑整合多元世界的公正过渡。来自所谓的全球南方的替代方案为这种转变提供了有价值的工具,比如自然权利,它将自然视为一个拥有权利的实体,而不仅仅是一个监管的对象。厄瓜多云雾森林采矿权纠纷的卢利马瓜案例说明了这种方法,为重新思考地球系统治理和解决人类世差距(即与地球系统法律脱节)提供了独特的机会,这对应对地球健康挑战至关重要。

On the G77's 60th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of the Declaration for a New International Economic Order, this paper explores the enduring complexities of North-South relations in development and climate governance. We ask: What is the continuing relevance of the North-South narrative in Earth System Governance and climate change? Utilising North-South literature, this paper examines these relations and responsibilities, emphasising the need to decolonise ESG by challenging entrenched power structures in climate governance. The analysis concludes: (a) the North-South dynamic is a flexible dichotomy reflecting the dominance of powerful nations/actors over the less powerful; (b) recurring patterns of North-South behaviour in controlling forums, agendas, and decisions marginalise Southern perspectives; and (c) such imbalances result in failures to govern ecological and social problems, while the North risks losing control over them. Without a more just approach addressing the North-South dichotomy, we all risk losing a stable and predictable climate.
在77国集团成立60周年和《国际经济新秩序宣言》发表50周年之际,本文探讨了南北关系在发展和气候治理方面的长期复杂性。我们的问题是:南北叙事在地球系统治理和气候变化方面的持续相关性是什么?利用南北文献,本文考察了这些关系和责任,强调需要通过挑战气候治理中根深蒂固的权力结构来实现ESG的非殖民化。分析的结论是:(a)南北动态是一种灵活的二分法,反映了强国/行动者对弱国的支配地位;(b)南北在控制论坛、议程和决定方面反复出现的行为模式使南方的观点边缘化;(c)这种不平衡导致无法治理生态和社会问题,而北方可能失去对这些问题的控制。如果没有一种更公正的方法来解决南北对立,我们都有可能失去稳定和可预测的气候。

Cities have taken center stage in the fight against climate change. Research identified key conditions shaping how cities tackle climate change but hasn't yet addressed how such conditions interact in order to reduce emissions. The present paper contributes to filling this gap through a crisp-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis of 34 CDP-reporting cities, identifying combinations of institutional and socioeconomic factors that are systematically associated with emission reductions. Results show emission reductions both in presence and in absence of favorable socioeconomic conditions. Under favorable socioeconomic conditions, institutions seem central to the task of steering the capacities of the local business community and reaping scale benefits. Under unfavorable socioeconomic conditions, institutions seemingly play a key role in gathering resources, reaching out to broader networks on the international stage. Implications for policy and research are explored.
城市在应对气候变化的斗争中占据了中心位置。研究确定了影响城市如何应对气候变化的关键条件,但尚未解决这些条件如何相互作用以减少排放的问题。本文通过对34个cdp报告城市的定性比较分析,确定了与减排系统相关的制度和社会经济因素的组合,有助于填补这一空白。结果表明,无论是在有利的社会经济条件下还是在没有有利的社会经济条件下,减排都是如此。在有利的社会经济条件下,制度似乎是指导当地商业社区能力和获得规模效益的核心任务。在不利的社会经济条件下,制度似乎在聚集资源、在国际舞台上建立更广泛的网络方面发挥着关键作用。对政策和研究的影响进行了探讨。

Exploring plausible future scenarios of deep seabed mining in international waters 探索在国际水域深海海底采矿的可行未来方案
IF 4.4 Q1 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES Pub Date : 2025-03-13 DOI: 10.1016/j.esg.2025.100249

The global transition to renewable energy has intensified the demand for critical minerals, which are essential components in key green technologies. Many of these minerals are abundant on the international seabed, but negotiations surrounding deep-sea mining regulations have met significant challenges. Developing countries, having historically been marginalized in the benefits of resource extraction, have expressed concern about the regulatory framework for deep-sea areas. Additionally, scientific understanding of the potential ecological impacts of deep-sea mining on marine ecosystems remains limited. Despite these concerns, the economic incentives for exploiting deep-sea minerals are driving pressure to finalize regulatory frameworks and commence mining activities. While speculation abounds regarding the future trajectory of deep seabed mining, significant uncertainties persist when considering its development in international waters. This paper explores these uncertainties and examines the potential future implications of global policy decisions for both ecological sustainability and economic outcomes. Drawing on document analysis and expert interviews, we identify critical uncertainties and other drivers of change shaping the future of deep-sea mining. Using the 2 x 2 ‘intuitive logics’ matrix method, we develop scenario narratives based on the two most critical uncertainties: the place of environmental management and redistribution of benefits in the nascent industry. The scenarios present possible futures for deep-sea mining in international waters, providing insights to inform regulatory decision-making.
全球向可再生能源的过渡加剧了对关键矿物的需求,这些矿物是关键绿色技术的重要组成部分。国际海底蕴藏着丰富的这些矿物,但围绕深海采矿法规的谈判遇到了重大挑战。发展中国家历来在资源开采的利益中处于边缘地位,它们对深海地区的监管框架表示关切。此外,对深海采矿对海洋生态系统的潜在生态影响的科学认识仍然有限。尽管存在这些关切,开采深海矿物的经济动机正在推动最后确定管理框架和开始采矿活动的压力。虽然对深海海底采矿的未来轨迹有很多猜测,但考虑到其在国际水域的发展,仍然存在重大的不确定性。本文探讨了这些不确定性,并研究了全球政策决策对生态可持续性和经济结果的潜在未来影响。根据文件分析和专家访谈,我们确定了影响深海采矿未来的关键不确定性和其他变化驱动因素。使用2 × 2的“直观逻辑”矩阵方法,我们基于两个最关键的不确定性:环境管理的位置和新兴行业的利益再分配,开发了场景叙述。这些情景展示了国际水域深海采矿的可能未来,为监管决策提供了见解。

Background

Governance efforts to address environmental degradation and consequent impacts on human health and wellbeing have had limited effectiveness to date. A unified planetary health approach that is holistic and integrates stewardship and alternative ways of knowing, being and doing may provide more successful governance pathways. Accordingly, we developed a research agenda intended to pursue transformational pathways that progress planetary health and embrace a modus operandi of stewardship across multiple governance levels.

Methods

We used the 2018 Earth System Governance (ESG) research framework to guide a rapid review of the literature and establish a research agenda for planetary health within the context of earth system governance. We used a consensus process to support the identification and development of research questions. We developed a search strategy and used Scopus and PubMed to identify peer-reviewed literature published in English relating to planetary health and the four ESG contextual conditions: transformations, inequality, Anthropocene, and diversity.

Results

88 articles were included in the review. A majority were published between 2020 and 2023. Common topics included food systems and land use change, climate change, post-pandemic opportunities, as well as curriculum and research activities relating to planetary health. Systems and justice were key concepts. While interventions were commonly proposed in included articles, there was limited consideration of the role of governance.

Conclusion

There remains scarce literature exploring fundamental questions on the relationship between planetary health and earth system governance. This presents an important opportunity to interrogate research questions pertaining to planetary health and earth system governance to support the urgent action. We propose initial questions that form the basis of a research agenda to extend our understanding of planetary health in the context of earth system governance.
迄今为止,治理为解决环境退化及其对人类健康和福祉的影响所作的努力成效有限。统一的地球健康方针是整体的,将管理与认识、存在和行动的其他方式结合起来,可能提供更成功的治理途径。因此,我们制定了一项研究议程,旨在寻求促进地球健康的变革途径,并采用跨多个治理级别的管理方式。方法:我们使用2018年地球系统治理(ESG)研究框架来指导对文献的快速回顾,并在地球系统治理的背景下建立行星健康的研究议程。我们使用共识过程来支持研究问题的识别和发展。我们制定了一项搜索策略,并使用Scopus和PubMed来识别与地球健康和四个ESG背景条件(转型、不平等、人类世和多样性)相关的同行评议的英文文献。结果共纳入88篇文献。其中大部分出版于2020年至2023年之间。共同的主题包括粮食系统和土地利用变化、气候变化、大流行后的机会,以及与地球健康有关的课程和研究活动。制度和正义是关键概念。虽然所收录的文章通常提出干预措施,但对治理作用的考虑有限。结论探索行星健康与地球系统治理之间关系的基本问题的文献仍然很少。这提供了一个重要的机会来询问有关行星健康和地球系统治理的研究问题,以支持紧急行动。我们提出初步问题,形成研究议程的基础,以扩大我们对地球系统治理背景下的行星健康的理解。
