to: "'Rwatson@worldbank.org'" <Rwatson@worldbank.org>

Dear Bob,

Thanks very much for this, which I have finally gotten around to looking at.
I think the idea of pulling together all the comments, organized by
question, Working Group and chapter, is an excellent one, though I confess
to only having looked so far over our own contributions. In that connection,
I would like to note a small omission with respect to my own comments, sent
in before the Capetown meeting. In my response to PRSQ#5, I noted:

. . . the different baseline worlds have very different implications for
climate impacts and for what is now being called adaptative capacity. There
is a problem here, of course, since the impacts and adaptation community,
because of the inevitable time lags involved in translating new emissions
scenarios into climate scenarios, has only just started to internalize the
new baselines. This means not only that the literature being reviewed by
WGII is still often working off climate scenarios based on an earlier
generation of emission scenarios, but also, and more importantly I think,
that a crucial link is usually not made between emission scenarios and
impact/adaptation scenarios. This link is to be found in the underlying
socio-economic scenarios, which strongly affect both emissions and
impacts/adaptation, and which can vary widely. In other words, the
conclusion mentioned above concerning the importance of the choice of
underlying socio-economic and technological development paths is also
applicable, to a great degree, to impacts and adaptation policies. This is
an area where much new work is needed. And here the WGII finding Stewart
Cohen has commented on, that industrialized country impact work is
increasingly focusing on future impact scenarios without much attention to
ongoing sustainable development issues, while developing country work in
this area is strongly focused on development issues, without much emphasis
on future scenarios, is strongly suggestive.

I just wanted to put this comment on the table, so to speak, since I think
that the link between impact/adaptation analysis and the analysis of the
driving forces of emissions (i.e. the underlying socio-economic and
technological conditions that condition impacts, constrain adaptation, and
give rise to emissions) is one that needs some discussion, if only to point
out how little we can yet day about it.

All the best,
John
