9 Preface The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change (IPCC) was jointly established by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to assess the scientific, technical and socio-economic information relevant for the understanding of the risk of human-induced climate change. Since its inception the IPCC has produced a series of comprehensive Assessment Reports, Special Reports and Technical Papers on the state of the understanding of causes of climate change, its potential impacts, and options for response strategies. In 1998, Working Group III (WG III) of the ongoing Third Assessment was charged by the IPCC Plenary to assess the scientific, technical, environmental, economic and social aspects of the mitigation of climate change and a series of cross-cutting issues such as equity, development and sustainability. Its mandate was changed from a predominantly disciplinary assessment of the economic and social dimensions of climate change in the Second Assessment Report to an interdisciplinary assessment of the options to control the emissions of greenhouse gases and/or enhance their sinks. One key issue of the IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR) on mitigation of climate change, which has undergone an extensive review by scientists and governments, is the role of present and future behaviour of individuals, households, private and public companies, public authorities and other stakeholders. The patterns of behaviour and underlying value systems and cultures differ substantially among world regions and societal groups. The lead authors of several chapters of WG III recognized that the social, behavioural and cultural changes involved in mitigating global climate change are poorly understood. They acknowledged the need to broaden the existing conceptual framework and decided to invite psychologists, anthropologists and other social scientists to share their perspectives on the issue of climate change mitigation. The German Government recognized that this lack of a broader conceptual framework could be addressed, at least in part, by an IPCC Expert Meeting on social, behavioural, and cultural aspects of mitigation measures and policies. The meeting was held in March 2000 at Karlsruhe, Germany, and was organised by the Fraunhofer-Institute of Systems and Innovation Research (ISI) and the Technical Support Unit of IPCC Working Group III and was attended by about 35 participants. Its major objectives were the examination of recent findings and concepts arising from the social sciences in the context of climate mitigation options. A broad set of experts from many scientific communities and geographic regions participated giving their contributions as speakers, discussants, rapporteurs, and reviewers. The ten papers presented at the workshop are included in this volume. They represent various disciplines from the social sciences, including economics, political ix
10 x science, psychology, marketing, and anthropology. We are grateful for the contributions made by all participants. Our especial thanks to Sascha van Rooijen and the TSU for their permanent support, Renate Schmitz for organizing the IPCC expert meeting and converting the manuscript of the authors into this excellent volume; equally we would like to acknowledge Irmgard Sieb s thorough work on the layout and Anne Ray s for proof reading the contributions, of non-native authors in particular. Robert T. Watson Chair, IPCC
11 Introduction The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) noted in its Second Assessment Report that greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere are increasing, and that the balance of evidence suggests a discernible human influence on global climate. Stabilizing the changing global climate will require policies, programmes, and measures to deploy new mitigation technologies and entrepreneurial opportunities. The social, behavioural and cultural changes that might be involved in mitigating global climate change, however, are poorly understood at present. The conceptual framework for mitigation assessment has been developed by energy economists and technologists during the last two decades; it has traditionally focused on the concepts of economic and technical potentials, whose attainment is prevented by barriers and market imperfections. This rather technical or physico-chemical ( activation energy ) conceptual framework does not sufficiently take into account factors such as individual motivation and personality (e.g., convenience, fun culture, social prestige), communication and decision patterns within administrations and companies (e.g., hierarchical decision processes, image building) or cultural aspects and life styles. Explanations of market imperfections are typically of a microeconomic nature, e.g., transaction costs, additional risks of impaired product quality or disruption of production, energy subsidies, or consumer utility functions. The concepts used so far tend to neglect psychological, social and cultural explanations of human behaviour and choice. These neglected aspects need to be considered with much more emphasis in order to design effective policies, programmes and measures However, there is relatively little literature on climate change mitigation policies with a strong grounding in the social sciences, especially in countries with economies in transition and developing countries. Therefore, this book is focused on the psychological, social and cultural aspects and related conceptual frameworks of mitigation assessment. Its aim is to contribute to the Third Assessment Report of the IPCC, Working Group III by helping to broaden the conceptual basis, and hence to encourage the development of more effective mitigation policies worldwide. The book will also assist marketing experts of energy service companies, technology producers and utilities in gaining a better understanding of their customers decisions, and provide material for relevant courses at universities and other academic and research institutions. As usual in the IPCC process, a successful publication has depended first and for most in the co-operation of scientists and other experts worldwide. In the case of this book the participants of the expert meeting mentioned in the Annex list of the book have devoted much time and effort as authors, reviewers, discussants or rapporteurs. We are extremely grateful for their commitment to the IPCC process. Rainer Baake State Secretary of the Environmental Ministry, Berlin, Germany xi
