In the same year the World Economic Forum in Davos had issue as climate change facing humanity this century, one of the most important challenges.

Since then, the British Government to the international academic co-sponsored a global scale led by Sir Nicholas Stern, and its name on the economics of climate change, Stern Review (SternReviewon Ecoonomicsof ClimateChange), the world’s major regions core research institutions are involved in an international joint scientific implementation of the plan. From China Renmin University, Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Technology, China Institute of Social Sciences and other bodies of experts involved in assessing China’s assessment of the Stern part of the research work. This assessment was so far carried out in an international context the most comprehensive interdisciplinary economics of climate change research.

lasted for nearly a year after the work of October 30, 2006 the British Government published a 600-odd pages of the final evaluation report. Report on the global climate change could result in an assessment of the economic losses that the global climate change will likely be facing humanity this century, the most serious challenges to sometime later this century and the next century, a result of economic and social activities We conduct the next few decades the risk of being exposed to major damage. This scale of destruction and 20th century half-century of war and economic depression brought about a significant scale of destruction comparable.

report also to prevent global warming cost analysis that is now an immediate joint international action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is not too late. Any delay could lead to greater costs and risks. Therefore, the report called on all States to take action as soon as possible emission reduction measures. These will be directly involved in the various countries in the path of economic development, energy, environment, science and technology strategy and policy adjustments. Report has been widely reported by international media and in international academic and political circles has caused widespread concern.

“斯特恩报告”的报告提醒世界减缓气候变化不会等待

英国政府部门,经济事务和气候变化和政府顾问,前世界银行首席经济学家尼古拉斯斯特恩爵士负责发展经济学,最近发表了在中国人民大学演讲,在国际学术界和政界的广泛介绍反应和气候变化的经济影响的关注,“斯特恩报告”的报告。

自上世纪90年代,全球气候变化已成为国际关系中,经济发展,环境和资源,能源,科技等领域的世界著名的研究和开发的重大战略问题。在1992年缔结的,这个“联合国气候变化框架公约变化,”在1994年生效,于1997年签署的“京都议定书”于2005年生效。布什政府2001年上台,决定不加入京都议定书,美国形成和外交争端,欧盟的重要开端。同时,气候变化已成为发达国家之间的关系和发展中国家的一个重要课题。在2005年举行的英国“八国集团首脑会议五周年”(8 +5)气候变化问题,因为两个主要议程之一,并在世界上的报告提出,8个最重要的发达国家,中国,印度,巴西,南非南非,墨西哥5个最大的发展中国家首脑之间进行战略对话。在同一年,在世界经济论坛达沃斯气候本世纪人类面临的,最重要的挑战之一变化问题。

此后,英国政府向国际学术联合主办了全球范围的尼古拉斯斯特恩爵士牵头,其名称关于气候变化,斯特恩报告(SternReviewon Ecoonomicsof全球气候变暖),世界主要地区的核心研究的经济学机构参与国际联合科学计划的实施。来自中国人民大学,清华大学,北京理工大学,中国社科院和评估中国的对斯特恩的部分研究工作的专家参与评估的其他机构所大学。这一评估是迄今进行的在国际范围内的气候变化研究的最全面的跨学科的经济学。

持续了近一年后,10月30日2006年的工作,英国政府发表了一份长达600最后多页的评估报告。对全球气候变化的报告可能会导致认为,全球气候变化将可能在本世纪人类面临的最严重挑战,本世纪晚些时候和下个世纪的经济损失评估,经济和社会活动的结果,我们进行未来数十年来暴露于重大损害的危险。这种破坏和20世纪半大规模的战争和经济衰退的世纪带来了重大的破坏规模媲美。

报告还对防止全球变暖的成本分析,现在是立即采取国际联合行动,减少温室气体排放量,还为时不晚。任何拖延可能导致更大的成本和风险。因此,呼吁所有国家的报告采取行动,尽快减排措施。这些将直接参与在经济发展,能源,环境,科学和技术战略和政策调整的路径各国。报告已被广泛报道的国际媒体和国际学术界和政界引起广泛关注。06.12.5
