The document discusses climate change, energy security, and peak oil. It argues that urgent action is needed within the next 100 months to drastically alter behavior to avoid catastrophic consequences of climate change. It notes the challenges of feeding a population of 9 billion by 2030 and providing enough energy while mitigating and adapting to climate change. The document outlines the UK's targets under the Climate Change Act to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 compared to 1990 levels. It proposes local missions and leadership initiatives in areas like renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable transport, and alleviating fuel poverty.

climate change + security + oil

14. ‘The best scientific
projections indicate
that we have very
little time left -
indeed, less than one
hundred months - in
which to alter our
behaviour drastically.
Although I wish it
were otherwise, I fear
we have reached the
point when if we do
too little, too late to
tackle this problem,
the consequences
could be
catastrophic.’

16. ‘Can nine billion people be fed? Can we cope
with the demands in the future on water? Can
we provide enough energy? Can we do it, all
that, while mitigating and adapting to climate
change? And can we do all that in 21 years
time? That's when these things are going to
start hitting in a really big way. We need to act
now. We need investment in science and
technology, and all the other ways of treating
very seriously these major problems. 2030 is
not very far away.’
Professor Sir John Beddington 19th March 2009, London

stupid!>

18. "Regardless
of which route we
choose, the world's
current predicament
limits our maneuvering
room. We are
experiencing a
step-change in the growth
rate of energy demand
due to population growth
and economic
development, and Shell
estimates that after
2015 supplies of
easy-to-access oil
and gas will no
longer keep
up with
demand."
Jeroen van der Veer, CEO Shell

25. Climate Change Act Targets
• 1990 baseline of CO2 emissions was
approximately 590 million tons of CO2.
• An 80% reduction is based on the minimum
reductions necessary to avoid causing
catastrophic and permanent changes to the
climate
• 80% of 590m tons = 118 million tonnes.
• The UK level of CO2 emissions (1.76
tonnes/capita cf. ~10 tonnes today) hasn’t
been that low since…… when?

37. Leadership
Derbyshire Leaders for
Climate/Energy Leadership:
Engage ‘leaders’ within Fire
Service in the climate change/
sustainable energy challenge.
‘If the leader hath no vision the
people will perish’ Proverbs 29:18

38. Climate Change
Leadership

39. Microgeneration
Focus on installing small
scale renewable
technologies across the
district. Linking technologies
with specific places.
Picking a winner: Solar
thermal or biomass heating?

40. The Great British Refurb
Ed Milliband recently
announced that by
2050 all British
homes will be near
carbon zero.

42. Large Scale Renewables
Is it time for Derbyshire to
be part of the renewable
revolution and join in the
fight against climate change
by owning (or catalysing)
their own renewables power
stations.

44. Fire Service: Sustainable Energy Award
Establish an annual award for
sustainable energy (or climate
change) achievement across
Derbyshire. To raise the profile
of ambitious action and wider
engagement of organisations,
individuals & communities.

46. Transport
Promote sustainable
travel & transport.
Encourage greener
driving, greener
vehicles, greener
modes of travel.

48. Affordable Warmth
Help eradicate ‘Fuel
Poverty’
