A user-friendly earth system model of low complexity: The ESCIMO system dynamics model of global warming towards 2100
Randers, Jørgen; Wenstøp, Fred; Wenstøp, Søren; Göluke, Ulrich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)We have made a simple system dynamics model, ESCIMO (Earth System Climate Interpretable Model), which runs on a desktop computer in seconds and is able to reproduce the main output from more complex climate models. ESCIMO ... -
Achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals within 9 planetary boundaries
Randers, Jørgen; Rockström, Johan; Stoknes, Per Espen; Golüke, Ulrich; Collste, David; Cornell, Sarah E.; Donges, Jonathan F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The world agreed to achieve 17 Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. Nine planetary boundaries set an upper limit to Earth system impacts of human activity in the long run. Conventional efforts to achieve the 14 socio-economic ... -
An earth system model shows self-sustained melting of permafost even if all man-made GHG emissions stop in 2020
Randers, Jørgen; Golüke, Ulrich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The risk of points-of-no-return, which, once surpassed lock the world into new dynamics, have been discussed for decades. Recently, there have been warnings that some of these tipping points are coming closer and are too ... -

Greenhouse gas emissions per unit of value a corporate guide to voluntary climate action
Randers, Jørgen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)How much must I reduce my greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions if I want to do my fair share to contribute towards the global effort to keep global warming below a 2 °C rise in average temperature over preindustrial times? This ... -
Grønn vekst i Norge mot 2050
Randers, Jørgen (Journal article, 2019)Det er ikke én som må gjøre alt. Alle må gjøre litt. Individuelle initiativ er ikke nok. Her kreves kollektiv respons. Her er det ikke nok å gjøre sitt beste. Her må man gjøre det som trengs. -
Human well-being in the Anthropocene: Limits to growth
Collste, David; Cornell, Sarah E.; Randers, Jørgen; Rockström, Johan; Stoknes, Per Espen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Transformation of the world towards sustainability in line with the 2030 Agenda requires progress on multiple dimensions of human well-being. We track development of relevant indicators for Sustainable Development Goals ... -
Meny 5: en vedtakbar klima- og energiplan for Norge til 2020
Randers, Jørgen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Denne artikkelen presenterer et forslag til en helhetlig klima- og energiplan for Norge til 2020. Planen består av seks klimagrep (tiltaksgrupper) som i sum vil sikre at man når Klimaforlikets mål om å redusere Norges ... -
The real message of The Limits to Growth: a plea for forward-looking global policy
Randers, Jørgen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)The book The Limits to Growth (Meadows et al. 1972) has been discussed aggressively for decades. Still it is not commonly known what this research report really did say when it was first published in March 1972. Many believe ... -
