40 years of global environmental assessments: A retrospective analysis
2017, Environmental Science and PolicyCitation Excerpt :These challenges reinforced the importance of monitoring, technology transfer and scientific assessments—cornerstones of the Summit’s voluntary action plan Agenda 21. Beyond a rapid succession of multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs) in the post-Rio period, were increasing appeals from the international science-policy community to redress ongoing deficits of reliable scientific information to support these agreements (Haas et al., 1992; Parson, 1993; Boehmer-Christiansen, 1994; Levy et al., 1995). The environment now represents the second most common area of international rulemaking, only after international trade (Muñoz et al., 2009).

This paper reports major findings of the research project ‘The Formulation and Impact of Scientific Advice on Global Climate Change’ (L 320 25 3030) funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council under the British Global Environmental Change Initiative. It is published in two parts, the second of which will appear in the September 1994 issue of Global Environmental Change. Discussions with scientists and policy makers in six countries, as well as the generous cooperation of Working Groups One and Two of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), are gratefully acknowledged. The SPRU Energy Programme enabled the close observation of the impact of the global warming debate on energy policy analysis and interests and I am grateful for many discussions and much advice from my colleagues. Three (natural) scientists helped me to appreciate the scientific debate — Dr Jaqueline Etcheto, a physicist researching the carbon cycle at CNRS, Paris; Dr Jill Jäger, a climatologist researching policy questions at the Wuppertal Institute and a former member of the Advisory Group on Greenhouse Gases; and my late husband, Dr Peter J. Christiansen, space physicist and mathematical modeller. All omissions, errors and misunderstandings remain, of course, entirely my own.
