In January 2012 the European Climate Forum changed its name to GCF - Global Climate Forum.
This is one of the steps decided by the board and the members’ assembly on the basis of the strategy process that was carried out in 2010. This change reflects the reality that our network has expanded well beyond Europe – our work has led quite naturally to linkages with America, China, Australia and others.
This website is in the process of being updated, due to this change, in the weeks to come. In case of further questions please click here.

From Zero Sum Game to Win-Win Solutions
Edited by Carlo Jaeger, Klaus Hasselmann, Gerd Leipold, Diana Mangalagiu and Joan David Tàbara
This book provides an evaluation of the science and policy debates on climate change and offers a reframing of the challenges they pose, as understood by key international experts and players in the field. It also gives an important and original perspective on interpreting climate action and provides compelling evidence of the weakness of arguments that frame climate policy as a win-or-lose situation.

The famous saying of Einstein’s – that we cannot solve problems with the thinking that generated them – is particularly relevant in the face of these challenges. There is an urgent need for new thinking about global systems, in particular about the main driving force of globalization: the world economy.
