Project Details

Description

To reach the Paris agreement a deep decarbonisation is needed, calling for an integrated societal transformation that entails all aspect of daily lives in Austria. The Special Report condenses the available knowledge and in collaboration with stakeholders identifies potentials, options and limits to achieve structural conditions that enable, generalize, and sustain climate friendly living within Austria. It strives for a comprehensive, inclusive and integrative assessment with stakeholder involvement and a transparent process in line with IPCC and APCC standards.
