“the median surface warming in 2091 to 2100 is 5.1°C compared to 2.4°C in the 2003 study”

“the cull during this century is going to be huge, up to 90%. The number of people remaining at the end of the century will probably be a billion or less.”

source: Lovelock

“If we burn all the coal, we might kick in a runaway greenhouse effect, if we burn all the tar shale and tar sands we definitely will ... leading to the Venus Syndrome. Caps aren’t going to work – we need a Carbon tax”

source: Hansen, Nasa

“capitalism is not up to the challenge ... it improperly and systemically undervalues the future ... it has become a kind of multi-generational Ponzi scheme ... we need a Carbon tax”

EFFICIENCY + TECHNOLOGY

Rapid innovation in energy efficiency technologies has created a consumerist, low-carbon world.

Society balances delicately with ever-increasing reliance on new technology to mitigate continuing climate change.

SERVICE TRANSFORMATIONHigh carbon prices mean businesses sell services rather than products.

Car ownership is prohibitive but public transport is highly efficient.

A 'share with your neighbour' ethos exists and global carbon emissions decline for the first year in history

REDEFINE PROGRESS

People rethink what a fulfilling life means.

Meaningful jobs are valued and stronger links with local communities are cultivated.

People are attracted to simplicity and focus much more on quality of life than economic prosperity.

ENVIRONMENTAL WAR ECONOMY

Governments leave it too late and are forced to rationalise whole sectors and take control of citizens' lives.

Environmental refugees must find countries willing to accommodate them. GHGs begin to decline, but at great cost to civil liberty.

PROTECTIONIST WORLD

The world is divided into protectionist blocs. Countries wage war over scarce resources such as water.

Communities are divided and terrorists take advantage of the flux, targeting collapsed states.

"collaboration networks are to businesses what social networks are to consumers"

@Padmasree, CTO, Cisco

“95% of people are interested in receiving detailed information on their energy use”

"If Edison would wake up today and look at the grid he'd say 'that's where I left it"

“Data on your personal energy use belongs to you ... in a standard, non-proprietary format”

“unifying monitoring, measuring, and managing rural environments, rural to urban interconnects, and urban environments”
