Abstract
CCCEP was established in October 2008 with the aim of advancing public and private action on climate change through rigorous, innovative research. Even though much of our research is ongoing, we have made several major academic contributions:
- Improving understanding of the uncertainties in climate models, developing state-of-the-art economic models of decision-making under uncertainty and applying them to climate change, and pursuing novel methods of participatory assessment/modelling.
- Exploring different routes to a global climate agreement and alternatives to state-based governance, all the time emphasising the role of institutions.
- Advancing knowledge on the potential for climate-friendly forms of development, and development-friendly forms of adaptation. We have advanced new integrated methodologies for identifying adaptation priorities, including 'vulnerability hotspots'.
- Conducting interdisciplinary research on interventions towards a low-carbon economy, including robust econometric evaluation of the impacts of existing policies, analysis of carbon markets that bridges theory and practice, and an examination of the roles of states and markets.
- Developing new methodologies bridging the gap between macro-scale simulation modelling and micro-scale, context-specific approaches.
To build research capacity, we have strengthened the links between key disciplines and the climate debate, trained over 50 PhD students and provided new university courses at all levels. We have actively engaged with key decision-makers at all stages of the research process, influencing the UN climate negotiations at a high level, working closely with the World Bank and other international organisations, engaging heavily in UK climate policy on critical issues such as the fourth statutory carbon budget, impacting on policy-making in many other countries and engaging with private decision-makers, e.g. through our collaboration with Munich Re. We have also secured c. £28 million in leveraged funding.
Extensive consultations have highlighted the need to address the financial crisis/downturn, the continuing absence of a comprehensive international climate treaty, and recent controversies on climate science. They have stressed the need for more integrated approaches to climate research, to continue making a distinctive contribution in the context of other climate research, and to contribute to ESRC Strategic Priorities.
Our five research themes for Phase Two are:
1. Understanding green growth and climate-compatible development: what could constitute green growth or climate-compatible development in industrialised and developing countries?
2. Advancing climate finance and investment: how can we unlock major flows of finance into both adaptation and mitigation in different contexts? What are the implications of such flows?
3. Evaluating the performance of climate policies: how can we assess the performance of different climate policies and how can we understand the scope for policy learning?
4. Managing climate risks and uncertainties and strengthening climate services: how can we promote new approaches to the assessment, management and communication of climate risks/uncertainties?
5. Enabling rapid transitions in mitigation and adaptation: how can we understand the scope for rapid transitions to dramatically cut emissions and adapt to significant climate change?
Beyond the planned scientific programme, we propose to a CCCEP Innovation Fund with the aim of stimulating, developing and disseminating innovative ideas from both the academic and practitioner communities.
Our plans for Phase Two build on the solid institutional foundations of Phase One, including CCCEP's position at LSE/Leeds, its management structure and its key staff. However, we also plan to refresh the team. We will continue to engage with key stakeholders throughout the research process and to exploit a range of pathways to impact.

Planned Impact
We will seek to inform and influence decision-making by actively engaging with public policy-makers, businesses and voluntary-sector organisations.
We will consolidate the policy engagement initiated in Phase One, but will also broaden it to include a wider set of countries that are major emitters of greenhouse gases and/or are 'hotspots' of vulnerability to climate change.
We will use our very strong channels of communication with UK policy-makers, both nationally and locally, through a process of continual engagement that informs the scope of our work and allows opportunities for research findings to be fed into decision-making in an appropriate and timely way.
In UK national government, we will be engaged at various levels, from ministers through to civil-service directorates and divisions.
We will continue to inform UK national policy-making through written and oral evidence to parliamentary committees, input to the Committee on Climate Change, partnership activities with the All Party Parliamentary Climate Change Group, briefings for MPs and peers, and collaborations with bodies such as the Environment Agency.
We will strengthen and develop strong links with local authorities and with the networks of actors involved in low-carbon cities, in the UK and internationally, who require information and advice about low-carbon targets or financing and delivering the transition to a low-carbon economy.
We will increase our activities to engage EU decision-makers (particularly in the Commission Directorate-Generals for Climate Action and for Energy), especially on the future development of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme and the delivery of emissions targets for 2020 and beyond.
We will increase our efforts to engage policy-makers in other selected major-emitting countries, such as those that are introducing, planning or considering Emissions Trading Schemes and related carbon markets (e.g. Australia, China and South Korea).
Contacts will also be increased with national and local policy-makers on climate-compatible development in sub-Saharan Africa, which is a vulnerability hotspot facing significant adaptation challenges.
We will also continue to support the negotiations towards an international agreement on climate change, particularly through engagement with the annual summits of the UNFCCC and the G20.
We will further be able to take advantage of long-standing, high-level relationships with major international organisations, especially the multilateral development banks, including the World Bank and the EBRD.
Major projects on green growth will also be conducted in partnership with the OECD and the Global Green Growth Institute.
Our engagement with business will continue to focus on those sectors particularly closely connected with our scientific programme.
One is the financial-services sector, where (re)insurance companies and catastrophe modelling firms will be key targets for engagement, while our research on carbon markets will create opportunities for engagements with investment banks and other providers. In addition, our work on green growth and low-carbon innovation should lead to an increasingly deep engagement with institutional investors, i.e. pension and sovereign-wealth funds.
Our work on the links between mitigation policies and economic performance will be of strong interest to carbon-intensive sectors such as power and heavy manufacturing.
Our work on adaptation will be especially useful to sectors facing the challenge of investing in long-lived assets under climate change, notably energy and water supply, and our work on climate services will be relevant to organisations such as the Met Office.
By continuing to work with NGOs (not least through our Steering Committee where we hope to have continued inputs from WWF UK), we should be able to gain access to information to create new research possibilities, and sometimes better enable them to exert influence.

| Description | The mission of CCCEP is to advance public and private action on climate change through rigorous, innovative research. We have undertaken a broad programme of research over the past 9 years, into both adaptation to climate change and mitigation (reducing greenhouse gas emissions), in both developing and developed countries, and from the perspective of a number of disciplines. It is therefore impossible to capture all of our findings in a short space. However, leading examples of our achievements include: Improving the understanding and use of climate models in decision-making Our research has advanced understanding of the predictive capabilities of climate models, developed theories of decision-making and planning under 'deep' uncertainty, and applied them in real-world situations, such as defending the UK's coasts from flooding, setting global greenhouse gas emissions targets, and planning water resources in India. This was made possible by forging new alliances between climate science, economics, philosophy and other social sciences, as earlier research on climate models and their applications took place largely in silos. Designing economic instruments to fight climate change We are a world-leading authority on the design of economic instruments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon taxes and emissions trading schemes. We have been central to the development of theory and evidence on how to design well-functioning emissions trading schemes, which are coalescing to form a global carbon market. For example, our research on how to ensure stable prices in emissions trading schemes has directly informed the creation of the EU's Market Stability Reserve. Our research on the pros and cons of linking trading schemes across jurisdictions is also directly informing the UK government's thinking about climate policy after Brexit. Creating an evidence base on the economic effects of existing climate and energy policies We are at the forefront of the 'empirical revolution' in climate and energy economics, greatly improving the quality of evidence informing questions such as: do climate policies destroy jobs? Are they effective in reducing emissions and stimulating clean innovation? This revolution involves applying modern statistical techniques to large sets of quantitative data, in order to convincingly demonstrate cause and effect. We have created data sets, for example on low-carbon patents and international trade in embodied carbon, and we have studied the effects of existing climate and energy policies, for example on the productivity of firms and employment. Governing low-carbon transitions through turbulent times Our research has also advanced the theorisation of social transitions and the role of government, individuals and ideas therein, by investigating UK climate policy dynamics during austerity. It indicates that there is a growing gap between climate policy targets and action in the UK due to a shift towards short-term economic and political priorities. This raises questions regarding how 'climate leader' countries will be able to cope with the rapid and deep decarbonisation that is needed in the years to come. A shift towards more polycentric forms of governance is one avenue through which ambition can be maintained. |
| Exploitation Route | As mentioned above, CCCEP has undertaken a broad programme of research over the past 9 years. The current, second phase of CCCEP comprises five research themes: (1) understanding green growth and climate-compatible development; (2) advancing climate finance and investment; (3) evaluating the performance of climate policies; (4) managing climate risks and uncertainties and strengthening climate services; and (5) enabling rapid transitions in mitigation and adaptation. In addition, CCCEP part-funds other research on climate change economics and policy at LSE and Leeds, which extends the scope of our work still further. Findings from right across our programme of research are contributing to academic debates and lines of inquiry. The ways in which they are doing so include stimulating ideas for new research questions, new collaborations between CCCEP researchers and other academics, and creating datasets for use in new research projects. In addition, CCCEP has always placed great emphasis on impact with non-academic audiences. The findings of our research are being used to inform the design of climate change response strategies at multiple scales, including city planning, national and international emissions trading schemes, and the architecture of the UN process that brings together countries to negotiate on climate cooperation. |

| Description | CCCEP's findings during its second phase (2013 to date) have informed policy and practice at the local, national and international levels, in the public, private and third sectors, in the UK and around the world. In this section we present some of the foremost examples of our impact. Supporting the international climate negotiations and the UN Paris Agreement The results of CCCEP's joint research programme on climate laws of the world has guided the plans of lawmakers and negotiators at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, plans for new national legislation on climate change, and policies to strengthen the credibility and implementation of Nationally Determined Contributions to the UN Paris Agreement on climate change. For example, CCCEP's joint analysis with staff in the then UK Department of Energy and Climate Change of the aggregate impact of emissions pledges in countries' intended Nationally Determined Contributions was used by many negotiators ahead of the Paris summit. The research carried out by CCCEP's chair, Lord Stern, has been highly influential around the world. As co-chair of the Global Commission on the Economy and Climate, he has contributed to important reports that have persuaded governments and other policy-makers of the potential for economic growth and development offered by the low-carbon transition, particularly from investments in sustainable infrastructure. The Commission's first report was launched at the UN in September 2014, and informed many discussions ahead of the crucial UN climate change summit in Paris in December 2015. Lord Stern's analysis of the importance of multilateral development banks in financing the low-carbon transition has played a crucial role in securing support for the Paris Agreement from emerging-market and developing countries. His work on the opportunities arising for China from the low-carbon transition has been well-received at the annual China Development Forum and during other engagements with Chinese policy-makers. CCCEP research has also been very influential on policy-makers' understanding worldwide of the potential economic impacts of climate change. The importance of Lord Stern's analysis of the weaknesses of economic models has been widely recognised, and CCCEP researchers played a crucial role in shaping the relevant sections of the Fifth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. In addition, CCCEP researchers' calculations of value at risk due to climate change have been cited frequently in the financial sector, and CCCEP has had an extended engagement with policy-makers through the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures. Identifying effective policies for low-carbon and climate-resilient growth in the UK and EU CCCEP has carried out direct engagements with policy-makers in the European Commission about key aspects of the European Union's climate policies, including the role of carbon capture and storage. CCCEP's work on carbon markets has informed and influenced discussions among Member States and the European Commission about reform of the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme, and is helping UK policy-makers to consider its options for future continuation in, or withdrawal from, the Scheme after Brexit. In the UK, CCCEP's research has helped to shape the second national Climate Change Risk Assessment, and many aspects of the implementation of the National Adaptation Programme, particularly in relation to managing flood risk, including through the new Flood Re scheme. On mitigation, CCCEP has contributed to discussions about the setting and implementation of the Fifth Carbon Budget, including the benefits and limitations of specific instruments to reduce emissions, such as carbon pricing (carried out jointly with the Institute for Fiscal Studies). CCCEP has continued its research on the economic and policy implications of key technologies, including fracking. Since 2015, it has been helping policy-makers to explore the implications for climate policy of Brexit, including opportunities for the new industrial strategy to foster low-carbon growth and increase exports of low-carbon goods and services to countries outside the European Union. CCCEP's researchers have also been influential in demonstrating how climate policies boost innovation and competitiveness, leading to extended engagements with both UK national policy-makers and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development. Cutting emissions and improving lives in the world's evolving cities More than half the world's people now live in urban areas, and cities account for nearly three-quarters of the world's energy-related GHG emissions. The urban development decisions taken in the next few years will be crucial in the fight against global climate change. CCCEP has developed new approaches for cities to understand their emissions, how they could switch to low-carbon development paths and the economic case for this switch. The team's work started in the UK and has helped many cities to integrate low-carbon investments into their economic development and urban regeneration plans. In the Leeds City Region, the evidence helped the Local Enterprise Partnership make the case for a low-carbon development strategy, and to create a £20m fund for domestic energy efficiency improvements. It also led to the creation of the innovative Leeds Climate Commission, with input from 24 key public, private and civic partners from the city region (see leeds.candocities.org). The recent publication of carbon accounts and summary low-carbon plans for every UK local authority is estimated to have saved them over 100 years of effort (see candocities.org). Internationally, related research in Peru, Brazil, India, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Rwanda and Canada has led to the adoption of low-carbon strategies in cities around the world. The team's assessment for the Global Commission on the Economy and Climate estimated that the savings generated by investments in low-carbon development in the world's cities would have a current value of US$16.6 trillion in the period to 2050. This research was covered extensively in the world's media and played a key role in the urban conversation that fed into the Paris Agreement. Improving land management in the drylands of developing countries Some of the world's most vulnerable people and ecosystems exist in dryland regions. Widespread decline in the benefits that the land provides are contributing to the loss of options available to dryland communities to cope with the effects of climate change. CCCEP has researched the opportunities for improvement in dryland management, which have led to national and international policy changes. In the drylands of southern Africa, national and international policy-makers have rarely taken local knowledge of dryland management into account. For example, in the Kalahari rangelands of Botswana, national policy statements have focused on wind erosion and land privatisation, rather than addressing the problem of thorny bush encroachment onto grazing lands, which our research has found poses more problems to local people. CCCEP has developed new ways to enhance community involvement in environmental monitoring and land management decision-making. It has identified locally-relevant degradation indicators and produced sustainable land management guides as tools for management decisions. The guides outline practical and cost-effective options for local land management committees, and were also used in national training programmes for agricultural extension staff. At the international level, CCCEP has highlighted the lack of channels for research to feed into the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD). The UNCCD used to rely on evidence given by a politically-determined Roster of Experts. Appraisals by CCCEP contributed first to the establishment of UNCCD Scientific Conferences for sourcing scientific input for decision-making and, second, to an agreement from UNCCD parties to establish a new science-policy interface. It has led to the inclusion of knowledge management, the economics of land degradation and the science-policy interface in the UNCCD agenda. |

| Title | Climate Change Laws of the World |
| Description | Climate change Laws of the World and Climate Change Litigation of the World build on several years of data collection by both the CCCEP in London and the Sabin Center, including the collaboration of CCCEP with GLOBE International on a series of Climate Legislation Studies. Climate Change Laws of the World covers national-level climate change legislation and policies in 164 countries. They include the world's 50 largest greenhouse gas emitters and 93 of the top 100 emitters. Together they account for nearly 95 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. The database covers climate and climate-related laws, which reflects the relevance of climate policy in areas including energy, transport, land use, and climate resilience. Climate Change Litigation of the World features climate litigation cases from 25 countries. These cases raise issues of law or fact regarding the science of climate change and/or climate change mitigation and adaptation policies or efforts before an administrative, judicial or other investigatory body. |
| Type Of Material | Database/Collection of data |
| Provided To Others? | No |
| Impact | The Database and the Study synthetising the data are regularly used by researchers, policy-makers and legislators from around the world. There have been many examples of parliamentarians learning from, and being inspired by, each other through forums such as GLOBE and the Inter-Parliamentary Union. We have received evidence from China's NDRC that the study has helped to inform the development of China's draft climate change law. This report was launched at the UN in Bonn. Christiana Figueres, former executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), who was a champion of the project, gave a keynote speech at the event. A number of parliamentarians also participated in the event. The results were also presented to senior officials from the Chinese government, to legislators from around the world at the Inter-Parliamentary Union Annual Forum and at a side-event during COP21 in Paris. |

| Title | International and sectoral variation in energy prices 1995-2011: how does it relate to emissions policy stringency? (Sato, Lovo, Dussaux) |
| Description | This project constructs a dataset of industrial energy prices indices for 48 countries for the period 1995 to 2011. This is done both at the country level and at the sector level, covering 12 industry sectors. This dataset is made available for download publicly on this website. Original data are provided by the International Energy Agency, as well as other sources. The procedures used to construct the dataset including the methodology developed to reduce missing data-points, are documented in the accompanying working paper, as are the full set of original data sources. Two industrial energy price measures have been developed: the Variable Weights Energy Price Level (VEPL) and the Fixed Weights Energy Price Index (FEPI). The VEPL is useful for cross-sectional analysis and descriptive statistics, whereas the FEPI is useful for time-series and panel analysis. |

| PI Contribution | The LSE initiated a collaboration with the OECD on competitiveness, innovation and trade. We have organised two events with the OECD. The first one was to accompany the launch of new OECD report 'Do environmental policies affect global value chains? A new perspective on the pollution haven hypothesis' which examines how environmental regulations have affected international trade patterns over 15 years and provides insights on how stricter environmental laws would affect future trade. Antoine Dechezlepretre, Associate Professorial Research Fellow at the LSE, presented research at the event on the impact of environmental regulations on innovation and growth. Assistant Professorial Research Fellow, Misato Sato, also participated in the event. The event was introduced and chaired by Lord Stern of Brentford. The second one was on "Low-carbon competitive advantage - what we know and need to know?". The aim of the event was to gather information from a round table of experts that would inform the research strategies of both partners. The event was chaired jointly by CCCEP Deputy Director, Sam Fankhauser and OECD Chief Economist, Catherine Mann. Representatives from the following organisations participated: Department of Energy and Climate Change University College London Imperial College Climate KIC Carbon Trust EDF Energy Imperial College Committee on Climate Change Foreign and Commonwealth Office Statkraft Department for Business, Innovation and Skills Permanent Mission of the Federal Republic of Germany to the OECD European Commission, DG Energy U.S. Embassy London OECD Economics, Trade and Environment teams. |

Lucas Chancel presented the key findings of A post-growth society for the 21st century by IDDRI. The report attempts to answer the two following questions in the context of increasing energy prices and the need for sharp CO2 emission reductions: Can we have any certainty about the future of growth? Assuming that the coming decades will be a period of weak growth fluctuating between an annual 1% growth and a stagnant GDP, can we still prosper? |

| Results and Impact | The debate on whether to privilege economic growth over ecological security is passé. Environmental considerations must be at the heart of economic growth, especially for a country of 1.25 billion people destined to add another 400 million by the middle of the century. Jairam Ramesh's new book Green Signals: Ecology, Growth, and Democracy in India chronicles the '1991 moment' in India's environmental decision-making, telling the story of how, for the first time, the doors of the environment ministry were opened to voices, hitherto unheard, into the policy-making process. It details efforts to change the way environment is viewed both by proponents of environmental security and those who prize economic growth at all costs. Told from the perspective of a pivotal decision maker, the book addresses the challenges involved in trying to ensure economic growth with ecological security. It takes us through India's coming of age in the global environmental and climate change community to take on a leadership role that is progressive, proactive, and steeped in national interest. Using speaking orders on high-profile projects, notes and letters to the Prime Minister, ministerial colleagues, chief ministers and others, Jairam Ramesh gives an insight into the debates, struggles, challenges, and obstacles to bringing environmental considerations into the mainstream of political and economic decision-making. |

| Results and Impact | How can climate change policies be designed to be not only environmentally effective but also cost-effective and fair? How can they be made more acceptable politically? Professor Lawrence H. Goulder's talk will explore how these different and often competing goals can be approached. While acknowledging that no perfect approach exists, he will suggest some potentially promising directions, drawing from academic research and recent climate-policy experience at the national and international levels. In considering these issues, he will explore the potential roles for carbon taxes, cap and trade, performance standards and direct technology promotion. |

The event was planned around participatory activities tocreate a two-way exchange with the audience. Researchers from the University of Leeds facilitated "live" learning through instant polling. Streaming also provided an opportunity for our expert panel to contribute their reflections on the winter 2015/16 flooding in the region and their perspective on how we can be more resilient to and better prepared for future floods. Following a Q and A, panel members and researchers continued the discussion with audience members over a reception in the foyer. The event was filmed and the video is available for those who couldn't attend. All audience members were subsequently invited to take part in an online survey about attitudes to natural flood risk management. This will feed directly into research by our colleagues. |

| Primary Audience | Policymakers/politicians |
| Results and Impact | Energy transitions involve both changes in the price and availability of energy sources and biased technological change that acts to integrate the new energy carriers into production systems and improve the productivity with which they are used. Professor David Stern will present empirical research on modelling the transition from traditional energy carriers to coal in Sweden using an exogenous biased technical change model and a simulation model of the Industrial Revolution in Britain using endogenous directed technical change model. Both expansion in the use of coal and coal-augmenting technological change were critical in accelerating the rate of economic growth in Sweden in the 19th and early 20th Centuries, though over time, labour-augmenting technological change has played an increasingly dominant role in the growth process. Professor Stern will also show how in Britain the rising price of wood relative to coal could foster the development of new types of coal-using machines, which were necessary to expand the use of coal to new applications. The predictions of the directed technical change model will be assessed against the available data and implications for the current and future energy transition discussed. |

| Results and Impact | In this seminar, Professor Lindsay Stringer, talked about Homeward Bound, an inspiring leadership and strategic initiative teamed with a science education programme on climate, biological and earth system research, set against the back drop of Antarctica. The Homeward Bound vision over the next ten years is to equip a 1,000-strong global collaboration of women with a science background to lead, influence and contribute to policy and decision-making as it informs the future of our planet. Reflecting on my experience as part of the first Homeward Bound expedition- the world's largest all-female multidisciplinary expedition to Antarctica, involving 76 women from all over the world- I provide insights into why women in science matter when it comes sustainability leadership and outline the next steps in the journey that lies ahead. The event was filmed so that those who couldn't attend were able to see the presentation. Lindsay was also interviewed on the Paul Hudson Weather Show, in advance of her trip, a programme which has an audience of many thousands from across the Yorkshire and Humber region. It is hoped that these engagement activities will inspire other young female scientists to apply for the 2017 Homeward Bound expedition and positively influence attitudes to women in science. |

| Results and Impact | Staff and students attended this joint talk by Canadian academics, Dr Lea Berrang Ford and Dr James Ford. In the talk, they reflected on the experience of two of their projects - the Indigenous Health Adaptation to Climate Change Project, and the Adaptation Tracking Collaborative - arguing that methodological diversity is central for advancing understanding of vulnerability and adaptation. Their theme is that interdisciplinarity alone does not guarantee impact but must be accompanied by a working 'architecture' for collective impact including team building, identification of common goals and meaningful engagement of knowledge users. The Fords have since been offered academic positions with the University of Leeds and will take up posts in 2017. |

The workshop aimed to examine the propositions and questions from an interdisciplinary perspective, based on short commentaries and submissions from a few leading thinkers - "The scientific community has relied heavily on quantitative assessments to capture and understand uncertainty. But does the focus on models, diagrams, regressions and future scenarios factor in the lived realities of local people (poor or rich, women and men, urban or rural especially in the global South)? Theorizing about uncertainty from 'above' by experts may have little to do with how many people live with, understand and cope with uncertainty in everyday settings from 'below'." |

| Results and Impact | On the 18 January 2018, a group of legal experts from around the world launched the Principles on Climate Obligations of Enterprises. These principles are a follow-up to the 2015 Oslo Principles, which chiefly aimed to discern the legal obligations of States to constrain climate change. The new set of Principles maps the legal obligations of enterprises and investors in the face of climate change. In the context of the newly established Principles on Climate Obligations of Enterprises, the Grantham Research Institute and CCCEP invited a panel of experts to discuss corporate responsibilities, the long-term perspective that should be taken by institutional investors, and the consequences such a perspective creates for investment decisions. |

| Geographic Reach | International |
| Primary Audience | Policymakers/politicians |
| Results and Impact | The Paris Accord, the hoped for ambitious agreement, to be decided at the 21st Convention of the Parties of the UNFCCC, this December, will set us on a new pathway towards zero carbon growth. When the negotiators go home, what messages will they have sent to economic actors globally? How will an orderly transition to zero carbon growth be managed and financed? In response to overwhelming scientific consensus and a compelling economic case that we need to change the course of our carbon history, how will CEOs, Heads of State and others respond to the question "when you knew, what did you do?" Rachel Kyte (@rkyte365) is a World Bank Group Vice President and Special Envoy for Climate Change. As a leading advocate for action to combat climate change because of its intrinsic link to poverty and development, Ms. Kyte is the leading figure for the World Bank Group in efforts to campaign for an ambitious agreement at the 21st Convention of the Parties of the UNFCCC this December. She is leading work on climate change adaptation, mitigation, climate finance, and disaster risk and resilience across the institutions of the World Bank Group, including IBRD, IDA, IFC, and MIGA. |

| Results and Impact | Prioritising human needs in the era of climate change" brought together three eminent scholars advocating a radically new view of sustainability research and action. The challenge of reducing human impacts on the environment has too often been framed through a purely economic lens, weighing only the monetary costs and benefits of new policies and technologies. Instead the event advocated focusing on human well-being. Professor Gough of LSE, author of " A Theory of Human Need", considered sustainable consumption from the perspective of climate change and human needs. Professor O'Neill, Hallsworth Chair In Political Economy at the University of Manchester, discussed how best to challenge the growth imperative. Dr Buchs of the University of Leeds presented her new book on postgrowth and well-being. Following a discussion, the event ended with drinks and refreshments in the foyer. Over a hundred people attended. The event was also filmed so that those who could not attend could view the film at a later date. |

One, which is called a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario, is based on some improvement in various energy use indicators. An alternative is a low energy use alternative which is based on strong action in a number of areas to reduce energy demands given a desirable GDP growth path combined with steps to promote greener energy. The speaker will assessed the feasibility of the low energy path in terms of the various policy changes needed to make it a reality. |

| Primary Audience | Public/other audiences |
| Results and Impact | How great is the risk of a climate catastrophe, and what should we do about it? The likelihood and possible impact of a catastrophic climate outcome is what drives the social cost of carbon (SCC), and thus the case for a stringent climate policy. But what is that likelihood, and what kinds of outcomes might occur? Might the impact of a catastrophic climate outcome be limited to a sharp reduction in GDP and consumption (as most climate models assume), or might the impact also include the deaths of large numbers of people? The answers to these questions are necessarily speculative, but we must address them. To complicate matters, there are other potential catastrophes that we must also worry about, such as nuclear or bioterrorism, or the spread of a "mega-virus." I discuss the policy implications of these threats, and consider how we might respond to the risk of climate - and other - catastrophes. |

| Primary Audience | Public/other audiences |
| Results and Impact | Some claim that ethical considerations, and especially those of justice, should be eliminated from global climate policy in favor of those based largely on narrow economic self-interest. To illustrate the dangers of this position, I argue that approaches that aim to avoid justice are at risk of endorsing climate extortion, a clear violation of ethical norms. Consequently, norms of global, corrective and intergenerational justice must be incorporated in any reasonable and feasible climate policy that does not violate intelligibility constraints. |

| Results and Impact | Prof. Robyn Eckersley gave the annual London School of Economics - University of Melbourne public lecture. An abstract is below: Most parties and observers acknowledge that the rapid ratcheting up of mitigation action and climate finance provision by developed countries is the key to unlocking enhanced mitigation in developing countries, and that both developments are essential if the Paris Agreement is to meet its long term goals and targets. Yet the responses by developed countries to the international expectation that their differentiated responsibilities require them to lead in mitigation (whether by moving early and/or doing more) shows considerable variation, ranging from cautious acceptance to cavalier denial. This lecture reviews the troubled history of the international norm of developed country leadership and the findings of comparative climate politics that explain this variation. It also offers some proposals on how the processes of reviewing NDCs might be strengthened to minimise the risk of self-differentiation degenerating into a self-serving apology for the protection of national interests. |

| Results and Impact | Ecological and economic systems are alike in that individual agents compete for limited resources, evolve their behaviours in response to interactions with others, and form exploitative as well as cooperative interactions as a result. In these complex adaptive systems, macroscopic properties like the flow patterns of resources like nutrients and capital emerge from large numbers of microscopic interactions, and feed back to affect individual behaviours. In this talk, Prof. Levin will explore some common features of these systems, especially as they involve the evolution of cooperation in dealing with public goods, common pool resources and collective movement. Prof. Levin will describe examples from bacteria and slime molds to vertebrate groups to insurance arrangements in human societies and international agreements on environmental issues. |

| Results and Impact | Contemporary economics is mostly unconcerned with distortions to individual incentives that lead to population and consumption overshoots. Currently the overshoot would appear to be in consumption in the rich world and fertility in the poor world. In this lecture Professor Dasgupta traced those distortions to an absence of adequate property rights to the biosphere and to the fact that human preferences are socially embedded. Those distortions also encourage technological advancements to be rapacious in the use of Nature's resources, thus exacerbating the problems. Using global assessments of the biosphere's capacity to provide humanity with the demands we make of it, he will provide crude estimates of the size of the global population that Earth can support in comfort under foreseeable technologies and institutions. |

| Results and Impact | Public lecture by Professor Hans-Werner Sinn. Introduced and chaired by Robert Falkner. While humankind has to fight climate change, the economic and technical constraints are severe. Local demand cuts may be countered by other countries' increases due to price reactions. Resource owners may try to react with preemptive extraction. Bio energy may rival with food. Wind and solar energy may be too volatile. The lecture gives an overview of some of challenges and tries to point to potential solutions. |

| Results and Impact | Natural capital is what nature provides to us for free. Renewables - like species - keep on coming, provided we do not drive them towards extinction. Non-renewables - like oil and gas - can only be used once. Together, they are the foundation that ensures our survival and well-being, and the basis of all economic activity. In the face of the global, local, and national destruction of biodiversity and ecosystems, economist Dieter Helm offers a crucial set of strategies for establishing natural capital policy that is balanced, economically sustainable, and politically viable. |

| Results and Impact | Economic growth depends critically on access to reliable energy. However, in much of the world, access to energy remains low and supply is often unreliable. At the same time, the world's energy choices are leading to levels of pollution that are substantially shortening people's lives and causing climate change. The energy and growth challenge requires identifying solutions to these problems of access to inexpensive and reliable energy, while limiting environmental damage and guarding against disruptive climate change. In this public lecture hosted by the International Growth Centre, the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, and LSE Department of Economics, Michael Greenstone will explore the key energy trends, especially in developing countries, and outline solutions to the energy and growth challenge that determines the well-being of the billions of people around the planet. |

| Results and Impact | The Paris Climate Change Agreement, achieved at the UN COP21 Conference in December, is the first legally-binding agreement on climate change since the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. Michael Jacobs worked closely with the French Government and various international organisations in the political process leading up to the conference, having previously been adviser to UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown at the failed UN conference in Copenhagen in 2009. In this lecture he will explore both the causes and the consequences of the Paris Agreement. Why and how was it achieved, where Copenhagen failed? What does the Agreement actually mean? And will it work? Examining the relationships between the economics of action on climate change, the politics of climate in Europe, the US, China and elsewhere, and the complex international relations of the UN negotiations, the lecture will ask: does the Agreement mark a historic turning point in the world's efforts to combat global warming, or merely another empty set of promises? |

Swenja Surminski emphasised the importance of keeping in mind the aims and objectives behind using insurance as a tool to address loss and damage. Highlighting advantages of insurance over post-disaster aid, she noted incentivising and enhancing risk reduction through insurance, and sharing loss and damage beyond the at-risk community through solidarity funds as key challenges to designing and implementing insurance in the loss and damage context. |

| Results and Impact | Around 60 staff and students from across the University as well as staff and students from the universties of Cardiff, NTU and Bath, attended this presentation by Professor Nick Pidgeon PHD, MBE Bionote (Cardiff University, Understanding Risk Research Group, School of Psychology) In his talk, Nick outlined the strong policy imperatives to transition toward low carbon energy systems but how and in what ways such transitional processes might be realised remains highly uncertain. He argued that engagement with a wide range of different framings can offer a basis for better understanding and anticipating public responses to energy system change, ultimately aiding in managing the complex set of uncertainties and risks associated with energy transitions. This joint badged event was part of a two day consortium workshop led by the Centre for Industrial Energy Materials and Products and strengthened existing collaborations. |

| Form Of Engagement Activity | A talk or presentation |

| Geographic Reach | Regional |
| Primary Audience | Postgraduate students |
| Results and Impact | This talk will use tools from game theory and economics to study how special interests compete for policy interest through the news media. The talk will explain why competition among special interests can make policy better by revealing useful information. It will also explain why such competition can make policy worse by creating the impression of false doubt and controversy. Climate change has been an example of the latter case, and the speaker will argue that this is, perversely, because the issue is so amenable to scientific analysis. The talk will argue that more partisan media might actually make things better. |

He presents the importance of the Paris accord in which it was agreed to limit the increase in global temperature. He further presents the reasons that make decarbonisation an urgent need, which are related to the concentration of the greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere and the consequences these have on annual GDP and productivity. The change towards decarbonisation is possible to happen since there is now the momentum for the world to turn to renewable sources of energy as the cost of these technologies has dropped dramatically. It is a fact that fossil flues companies have the money and the power to push decision makers towards the opposite direction to their benefit, however, the Paris accord and the benefits of turning to renewable sources of energy seem to make the transition unstoppable. |

| Results and Impact | SE's Institute of Public Affairs and the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment hosted an innovative public session which explored who constitutes the innocent, how they are impacted by climate change and how they lack access to power. It considered if these issues can be overcome and suggest ways in which they can. The session was framed by a discussion with Nicholas Stern, Chair of the Grantham Research Institute and President of the British Academy and Mary Robinson, Former President of Ireland and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and currently President of the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice. This was followed by interventions from a panel comprising representatives of the Innocent: the marginalized, the poor, youth, workers and future generations. Panellists representing the political world and the corporate voice responded to the issues and concerns raised by the Innocent, outlining both the challenges of political office and the realities of the corporate world. The audience had an opportunity both to make observations and to put questions to the panellists regarding what can be done to find solutions to the problems identified. |

| Results and Impact | This workshop built on a previous workshop held in April 2015. The aim was two-fold; share information about potential future climate change in the basin and socio-economic changes with corresponding narratives, and participatory development of adaptation pathways for future scenarios. The discussion helped stimulate thinking of long-term changes, implications for water resources management decision making and improved understanding of each others' perspectives. This meeting also focussed on building links with researchers at the Divecha Centre for Climate Change, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. Through this workshop stakeholders were made aware of potential future climatic changes in the basin. Socio-economic narratives were discussed and validated by stakeholders. Stakeholder groups representing agriculture/farmers, industry + power, drinking water and decision/policy makers, then framed adaptation pathways from 2015 to 2050 using adaptation options elicited in previous workshop. CCCEP researchers successfully engaged decision makers in the government departments related to water resources and re-confirmed their long-term involvement for future workshops through CCCEP and other research initiatives. Decision makers found the approach useful for their long-term planning issues which helped increase the credibility of the research. Interaction with researchers at the Divecha Centre for Climate Change, a Grantham Institute, at the Indian Institute of Science, led to discussions on linked research interests and potential for formal research collaboration. |
