To what extent does the uncertainty of geographical patterns in temperature and precipitation change influence future climate impacts and response strategies?  +
How can the implications of biofuels for land use and greenhouse gases be managed sustainably?  +
How can agricultural intensification increase global food production, and what policies will contribute to this?  +
How will agriculture affect the Earth system with respect to carbon emissions, freshwater availability and nutrient cycles?  +
What is the effect of the NDCs on achieving the long term 2 ºC target?  +
How can energy efficiency contribute to reducing the growth rate of energy demand and mitigate pressures on the global environment?  +
How could policy interventions influence the interaction between ecosystem services and other goals and ambitions, such as the millennium development goals?  +
How rapidly can the transition to more sustainable energy supply be made?  +
How are these strategies affected by uncertainties in the energy system?  +
What are the prospects for more sustainable forest management and the role of production in dedicated forest plantations?  +
What would be suitable adaptation strategies and investment options related to flood risk?  +
How can water demand be reduced and still provide the adequate service levels to the sectors with the highest demand?  +
How is improved access to food, water and energy likely to contribute to human development?  +
How could response strategies limit environmental pressures and foster more sustainable development?  +
What are the synergies and trade-offs between halting biodiversity loss, food security, reducing nutrient emissions, and reducing water stress?  +
To what extent are ecosystem functions lost by soil degradation, adding to local and global concerns about food security, biodiversity loss and climate change?  +
What opportunities exist to reduce land-use related carbon emissions (e.g. REDD) and even enhance the carbon uptake through the establishment of new forests.  +
How will nature conservation policies and measures to reduce the key pressure factors of biodiversity loss contribute to meeting the targets of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)?  +
