    Description: Maritime industries routinely collect critical environmental data needed for sustainable management of marine ecosystems, supporting both the blue economy and future growth. Collating this information would provide a valuable resource for all stakeholders. For the North Sea, the oil and gas industry has been a dominant presence for over 50 years that has contributed to a wealth of knowledge about the environment. As the industry begins to decommission its offshore structures, this information will be critical for avoiding duplication of effort in data collection and ensuring best environmental management of offshore activities. This paper summarises the outcomes of a Blue Growth Data Challenge Workshop held in 2017 with participants from: the oil and gas industry; the key UK regulatory and management bodies for oil and gas decommissioning; open access data facilitators; and academic and research institutes. Here, environmental data collection and archiving by oil and gas operators in the North Sea are described, alongside how this compares to other offshore industries; what the barriers and opportunities surrounding environmental data sharing are; and how wider data sharing from offshore industries could be achieved. Five primary barriers to data sharing were identified: 1) Incentives, 2) Risk Perception, 3) Working Cultures, 4) Financial Models, and 5) Data Ownership. Active and transparent communication and collaboration between stakeholders including industry, regulatory bodies, data portals and academic institutions will be key to unlocking the data that will be critical to informing responsible decommissioning decisions for offshore oil and gas structures in the North Sea.

    Description: Many hope that the Global Stocktake under the Paris Agreement can become a catalyst for increased mitigation ambition over time. Based on different theories of change, this paper outlines four governance functions for the Global Stocktake. It can contribute to the Paris Agreement as a pacemaker (stimulating and synchronizing policy processes across governance levels), by ensuring accountability of Parties, by enhancing ambition through benchmarks for action and transformative learning, and by reiterating and refining the guidance and signal provided from the Paris Agreement. The paper further outlines process- and information-related preconditions that would enable an ideal Global Stocktake.

    Description: Auf dem Weg in eine Ressourcenleichte Gesellschaft benötigen die betroffenen Akteurinnen und Akteure Leitbilder, an denen sie einen massiven Wandel wie diesen orientieren können. Der vorliegende Band stellt fünf solcher Leitbilder dar. Sie waren Hauptbestandteil des Projekts "Erfolgsbedingungen für Systemsprünge und Leitbilder einer ressourcenleichten Gesellschaft" und wurden mithilfe der Szenario -Methode erstellt. Inhaltlich wurden sie von Pionierinnen und Pionieren sowie Expertinnen und Experten ressourcenleichten Lebens erarbeitet, so dass alltagsnahe, praxistaugliche Elemente für die Leitbilder entwickelt wurden. Die Leitbilder zeigen eine große Spannbreite von Möglichkeiten, einen massiven gesellschaftlichen Wandel, wie er für eine Ressourcenleichte Gesellschaft nötig wäre, zu erreichen. Entsprechend unterschiedlich sind auch die möglichen Ressourcenschonungseffekte. Diese werden abschließend dargestellt und miteinander verglichen.
