INTRODUCTION

A CLIMATE CHANGE GLOSSARY


Climate change is one of the major global challenges of our time. The concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has increased progressively as the result of human activity. Global average temperature has risen significantly, in particular since the middle of last century. Is there a causal link between these two developments? According to a very large majority of independent scientists, yes. Global warming has measurable effects on ice coverage, the sea level, wind patterns and the likelihood of extreme weather events such as floods, storms and drought. Climate change has become a highly political issue because it is interrelated with a variety of important policy choices, from the energy mix to modes of transport, from agricultural practices to the fight against poverty worldwide, from migration to conflict prevention and international security. The international political response to climate change began with the adoption of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 1992. In 1997, the Parties to the UNFCCC added the Kyoto Protocol which

commits industrialised countries to achieving emission reduction targets. These commitments come to an end in 2012. Since 2007 international negotiations have intensified in order to establish an appropriate international regime for the fight against climate change beyond 2012. Today, it is important to ensure that in the future all major greenhouse gas emitters, including emerging economies, step up their efforts to curb emissions. The European Union has been a frontrunner and a driving force of climate action since the 1990s, both in terms of international positions and EU legislation. The Lisbon Treaty mentions the fight against climate change explicitly. Consequently, climate-related action features in EU political and regulatory texts. These texts contain concepts and notions which had not previously been used in official EU language. Very often, these concepts and notions have a relatively recent scientific background and exist primarily in English. But their meaning is not always reflected adequately in general English dictionaries. They have appeared in the context of the UN and other international fora and have slipped into the EUs vocabulary. For example, the notion of mitigation crucial in international climate

negotiations puzzles many readers trying to familiarise themselves with this area. Mitigation is presented as a concept which is different from that of adaptation to climate change, though both are considered to be complementary to each other. The Oxford English Dictionary defines the verb to mitigate as to make less severe, violent or painful. But this does not really help. Only a slightly more advanced reader of climate texts would grasp that mitigation means bringing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions down, and not just softening the impact of climate change (which would be adaptation). Finally, the policy challenge of climate change is also a significant challenge for those who have to translate the underlying concepts and notions into all official languages in the Union. This glossary is not only a very good illustration of the degree of effort invested: it will also provide useful guidance for citizens who simply want to have a better understanding of what they hear and read in a language which is not their mother tongue.
