地球温暖化を産業革命前の水準から1.5°C以内に抑えるには、一人あたりのカーボンフットプリントを世界平均で現在の4.6tCO2e/年から2030年には2.5tCO2e/ 年に削減する必要がある。住宅、食、移動、製品の購入、サービス利用、レジャーの分野における消費量とエネルギー原単位の分析から、京都市に暮らす人々の暮らしに関わる平均的なカーボンフットプリントは7.0tCO2e/ 年であることがわかった。これは日本の全国平均(7.1tCO2e/ 年)よりやや低い水準であるが世界平均(4.6tCO2e/ 年)よりは多い。 7.0tCO2eから2.5tCO2eへのカーボンフットプリントの削減は、供給(生産)側と需要(消費)側の対策を組み合わせることで初めて可能となる...

雪氷の融解、海面水位の上昇などに加えて、近年、日本各地での集中豪雨、北米太平洋岸や中東、欧州における最高気温50℃近い熱波といった極端な気象現象が頻発し、気候変動に関する危機感が広く共有されている。 IPCC(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change:気候変動に関する政府間パネル)は、中立的な立場で気候変動に関する科学的知見を提供し、国際プロセスないし各国での有効な政策立案につなげてきた。中でも2018年に発表された「1.5℃特別報告書」は、気温上昇幅により、熱波や干ばつの頻度や被害者数、生物多様性への影響などに大きな違いが生じることを示した。気温上昇1.5℃の場合、世界で3200万から3600万人が食料不足の影響を受けるのに対し、2℃に達すると...

The concept of 1.5-degree lifestyles involves changes in household consumption for achieving levels of per person carbon footprint compatible with the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement (IPCC, 2018). This requires, on average, emitting the equivalent of 2.5 tons of CO₂ per person per year by 2030, and 0.7 tons of CO₂ per person per year by 2050...
