• From 7bn to 10 bn people by 2100
• Global GDP up 3-4 % p.a.
• China, India, Africa GDP up 6-8% p.a. = x2 every 10 years

CHALLENGE
12.
BY CONTRAST – THE UK
• >1% Global emissions
• GDP growth 1-2% p.a. max (GDP per head > 1% p.a.)
• Population +10 million to 70m +
13.
WHY HAS KYOTO FAILED?
• European based
• Only developed countries in annex A with targets
• Clinton’s U-turn & US energy independence
• Japan’s nuclear disaster
• Canada, Australia all fossil fuel driven

• The lack of legally binding targets
• The lack of a consumption basis
• The heterogenous nature of the pledges – carbon intensity vs. carbon production
• The absence of the US
• The lack of a credible framework of action from Africa, India and China and the
