Schlussfolgerungen Time is scarce, as climate changes a lot faster than we thought Greenhouse gas emissions must be stabilised at lower levels than previously thought: 455 490 ppmv CO 2 eq. or 400 ppmv CO 2 Kyoto II needs to be substantially more stringent and should include major developing countries The conversion of the energy system is central The necessary technologies are already available Climate change mitigation is cheaper than previously thought and economically viable Renewable energies are a key factor of the solution!
