Forks in the Road - Alternative routes for international climate policies and their implications for the Netherlands / Stephan Slingerland, Leo Meyer, Detlef van Vuuren, Michel den Elzen. The Hague : PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, 2011, 82 p. ISBN: 978-90-78645-84-9http://www.pbl.nl/sites/default/files/cms/publicaties/pbl-500251002-routes-for-International-climate-policies-and-their-Implications-for-the-netherlands_1.pdfSeveral scenarios are possible for future international climate policies, each with a different role in the climate negotiations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). These scenarios assume policies that are comparable to the current policies, as well as more fragmented and more integrated international climate policies. The various alternative routes have been assessed with respect to their potential consequences. These assessments showed that none of the proposed routes could fully replace the current negotiation process under the UNFCCC, but rather that they could contribute to generating societal support for future climate policies.
