Fascicolo Sviluppo sostenibile
Qui viene delineato un quadro sui contributi scientifici per lo sviluppo sostenibile e in particolare per il programma per il 2030: la SCNAT mette a disposizione per i ricercatori, i finanziatori della ricerca e gli organi decisionali politici le relazioni di sintesi, i progetti, i riferimenti per gli eventi importanti e le notizie relative all’Accademiesvizzere delle Scienze e ad altri istituti.

Support for research partnerships with developing countries
The challenges of sustainable development affect different regions of the world differently. International research partnerships make it possible to take these differences into account. The KFPE is committed to cross-border and intercultural research partnerships and helps to make such partnerships fair and efficient.

To react to the current pandemic situation, we decided to postpone the KFPE & SUDAC Annual Conference to Spring 2021.
Immagine: SUDACThe design of efforts by the European Union (EU) and its Member States to recover from COVID-19 will determine the quality of people’s lives for decades to come. Related to the EU’s plans for a green recovery, European Academies urge policymakers to recognise the critical role of science and to step up efforts in three key areas: energy, ecosystem and health.
Immagine: EASACTo make our food systems sustainable, radical transformation of their complex social, economic and ecological components is needed. Simply increasing productivity is not enough to meet the raising global demand for food in the future.
Immagine: SAPEAThe growing use of electric scooters and ride-hailing services is transforming how we move in urban centres — but walking, cycling and public transport remain the best way to improve sustainable mobility in cities, according to a European Environment Agency (EEA) report published today. A separate EEA briefing on the environmental and climate impacts of transport finds that emissions of greenhouse gases from transport continue to increase, as demand for mobility across Europe keeps growing.
Immagine: www.eea.europe.euEurope will not achieve its 2030 goals without urgent action during the next 10 years to address the alarming rate of biodiversity loss, increasing impacts of climate change and the overconsumption of natural resources. The European Environment Agency’s (EEA) latest ‘State of the Environment’ report states that Europe faces environmental challenges of unprecedented scale and urgency. The report says, however, there is reason for hope, amid increased public awareness of the need to shift to a sustainable future, technological innovations, growing community initiatives and stepped up EU action like the European Green Deal.
Si rien ne change, les objectifs de développement durable des Nations unies ne pourront pas être atteints. Et le monde scientifique est également sur la sellette: comme le demande le premier rapport sur le développement durable dans le monde, la recherche visant des solutions concrètes doit être intensifiée. À travers une initiative, la SCNAT souhaite donc renforcer la recherche en développement durable en Suisse.
Les Académies suisses des sciences accueillent favorablement l'actualisation de la Conception «Paysage Suisse» (CPS) de la Conféderation. Celle-ci tient compte des défis actuels et donne une vue d'ensemble du paysage, de la nature et de la culture. Les Académies proposent des ajustements par rapport aux différents objectifs et soulignent que des mesures concrètes doivent suivre. Les cantons et les communes notamment devraient s'orienter sur la base des principes et des objectifs fixés par la CPS.
Social sciences and humanities play important roles in sustainability-oriented transformative research. A saguf workshop revealed what these roles can look like.
L’extinction des espèces s’accélère constamment et est déjà de 10 à 100 fois plus élevée que la moyenne des 10 derniers millions d'années. Un total de 0,5 à 1 million d’espèces sur environ 8 millions sont menacées d’extinction, prévient le Conseil mondial de la biodiversité IPBES lundi dans son premier rapport mondial sur l’état de la biodiversité et des services écosystémiques. L’état dramatique de la nature a d’énormes conséquences pour l'existence humaine. Ainsi, 14 des 18 services naturels tels que la pollinisation ou l'assainissement de l’air s’affaiblissent considérablement.
This EASAC report reviews options for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from European transport. It argues for stronger policies to bridge the gap between the GHG emission reductions that will be delivered by current policies and the levels needed to limit global warming to less than 2°C or even 1.5°C (Paris Agreement).
The existing instruments of European and Swiss energy policy in the field of mobility are far from sufficient to achieve the climate objectives of the Paris Agreement. This is the conclusion of a new report by the European Academies Science Advisory Council (EASAC). The report focuses on road transport, which accounts for 72 percent of greenhouse gas emissions from transport in Europe, and recommends various measures.
Plus de 12'155 scientifiques d'Allemagne, d'Autriche et de Suisse soutiennent les préoccupations des manifestants de la grève du climat. Rien qu'en Suisse, il y a 1727 signataires. Selon la prise de position publiée mardi par les «Scientifiques pour l'avenir», les mesures actuelles pour la protection du climat, des espèces, des forêts, de la mer et du sol sont loin d'être suffisantes.
