Huomautus sisällöstä, tiivistelmä tms. On 1 March 2022, European Commissioner Timmermans opened up his speech at the Circular Economic Stakeholder Conference on Sustainable Products for Sustainable Consumption, by referring to the Ukraine war, to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report released the day before, and the climate angle this conflict holds. The IPCC report published on 28 February 2022 shows with startling clarity that the climate and biodiversity crisis is worsening by leaps and bounds every day. Melting permafrost threatens to ‘bury’ Russia’s most important industry – gas and oil make up the backbone of Russia’s exports. The difficulties in dealing with the climate and biodiversity crisis derive from the way in which everything is interrelated in a very complex, non-linear manner. On top of the so-called ‘butterfly effect’ typical of chaotic systems, the evolution of the global climate is highly dependent on our current and future behaviour. This is the recurring message any reader will find in the 2005 book ‘The Wounded Earth: what world will our children inherit?’ The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the latest development framework recognising a fundamental shift in our relationship with the planet. These 17 goals are meant to trigger the butterfly effect to the same extent that our choices as policymakers, entrepreneurs or consumers affect the world around us. However, we have waited long a long time (since the 1992 Rio Earth Summit) to address the need to eliminate greenhouse gases (GHG), transition to a circular economy and become climate neutral. Climate neutrality and net-zero are terms that keep coming up more and more in national and international political discussions. They became a vague international commitment in the Kyoto Protocol and more concrete with the 2015 Paris Agreement. Yet, none of these terms appears even once in the legal texts of the international agreements. Since Paris, there has been a proliferation of national climate legislation worldwide, not only including and legally defining ‘climate neutrality’, even at European Union level, but also setting binding and short deadlines (2045, 2050) to achieve the goal of climate neutrality, which is in line with the 2018 IPCC special report.
