Les tendances constatées depuis quelques années s’inscrivent dans les comportements de chacun qui agit comme un citoyen consommateur.Communicating progress in national and global adaptation to climate change / Takayoshi Kato &#38; Jane Ellis. Paris  OECD, 7 June 2016, 47 p. (OECD/IEA Climate Change Expert Group Papers) http://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/content/workingpaper/5jlww009v1hj-enThe Paris Agreement, adopted by the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), reinforces the international framework for adaptation action by establishing a global adaptation goal. Under the Paris Agreement, countries have also agreed to an enhanced transparency framework for action, which includes adaptation. The Agreement also requests each Party to submit and update an "adaptation communication" as appropriate. This paper explores what elements of countries’ adaptation responses and progress could be reported under the Paris Agreement so as to better communicate efforts towards enhanced adaptation and resilience. The paper also highlights the potential benefits both at a national and an international level from identifying and collating adaptation-related information. Finally the paper outlines a possible structure of an adaptation communication, and identifies options and associated information needs for the adaptation-related components of the global stocktake agreed to in the Paris Agreement.Intégrer le climat à notre stratégie.

Global Affairs, online May 2016 DOI: 10.1080/23340460.2016.1166332The EU’s strategic re-orientation to coalition and bridge building after the failed Copenhagen Climate Summit in 2009 paved the way for its success in securing the Paris Agreement on climate change in December 2015. This orientation will largely remain relevant in climate geopolitics characterized by multipolarity and a diversification of interests away from a North–South divide, both headed towards growing support for decarbonization. Various fora beyond the multilateral UN negotiations deserve systematic attention as climate governance has become “polycentric”, requiring careful prioritization as well as further enhanced coordination of climate diplomacy across the EU. The EU’s position in climate geopolitics will not least depend on the development of its internal climate and energy policy framework for 2030 and beyond. Advancing decarbonization and fostering low-carbon innovation towards the new climate economy in the EU will help enhance the EU’s power base and role in future climate geopolitics.Carbon pricing under binding political constraints / Jesse D. Jenkins &#38; Valerie J. Karplus; UNU-WIDER, April 2016, 48 p.  (Working Paper 44/2016) https://www.wider.unu.edu/publication/carbon-pricing-under-binding-political-constraintsThe economic prescription for climate change is clear: price carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas emissions to internalize climate damages. In practice, a variety of political economy constraints prevent the introduction of a carbon price equal to the full social cost of emissions. This paper develops insights about the design of climate policy in the face of binding political constraints, formulated here as limits on the CO2 price itself, on increases in energy prices, and on energy consumer and producer surplus loss...
