At the RESCUE conference (“Resource-Efficient Pathways towards Greenhouse Gas Neutrality”), the German Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt, ⁠UBA⁠) shared the results of a project to further explore the mutual dependencies and feedback loops between climate policies and associated resource requirements. Six different quantitative scenarios for Germany were modelled and analysed. These scenarios describe potential alternative pathways to achieve a greenhouse gas-neutral and resource-efficient economy in Germany by the year 2050. At the conference, these scenarios were presented and discussed with experts and stakeholders from across the world. The implications for the wider policy context were also explored, drawing on the work of other institutions and individuals in this field.
