What is Signals a story-based approach to help us better communicate with this diverse group of people.The eight stories addressed are not exhaustive but have been selected on the basis of their relevance to the current environmental policy debate in Europe.
Kaj so Signali so oblikovani kot zgodbe, ki nam pomagajo izboljšati komunikacijo s tako raznoliko skupino ljudi. Osem objavljenih zgodb ni izčrpnih, vendar so bile izbrane na podlagi njihove pomembnosti za trenutno razpravo o okoljski politiki v Evropi.
They address priority issues of climate change, nature and biodiversity, the use of natural resources and health.
Obravnavajo prednostna vprašanja, kot so podnebne spremembe, narava in biotska raznovrstnost ter uporaba naravnih virov in zdravje.
Signals uses several approaches to tell its stories.
Signali zgodbe pripovedujejo z uporabo različnih pristopov.
While each story has specific points to make, as a collection, they also illustrate the many inter-relations between seemingly unconnected issues.
Vsaka zgodba ima svoj poudarek, kot zbirka pa ponazarjajo številne medsebojne odnose med na prvi pogled nepovezanimi vprašanji.
We would appreciate your feedback on Signals.
Veseli bomo vaših pripomb o Signalih.

Ne pozabite napisati „Signali“ v polje zadeva.
Signals is published by the European Environment Agency (EEA) at the start of each year and provides snapshot stories on issues of interest both to the environmental policy debate and the wider public for the upcoming year.We monitor the environment across our 32 member countries in partnership with our network.
Signali so publikacija Evropske agencije za okolje (EEA), ki izide v začetku vsakega leta, vsebuje pa kratke zgodbe, ki bodo v prihajajočem letu zanimive za razpravo o okoljski politiki in širšo javnost. V partnerstvu z našo mrežo spremljamo okolje v 32 državah članicah.
From researchers up to their knees in water to satellite imaging from space, we work with a huge amount of environmental data.
Obdelujemo ogromne količine podatkov o okolju – od raziskovalcev, ki so do kolen v vodi, do satelitskih posnetkov iz vesolja.
Finding, reading and understanding the range of ‘signals’ regarding the health and diversity of our environment is at the heart of what we do.
Iskanje, branje in razumevanje množice „signalov“ o zdravju in raznolikosti našega okolja je jedro naše dejavnosti.
Signals respects the complexity of the underlying science and shows awareness of the uncertainties inherent in all of the issues we address.Our target audience is broad, ranging from students to scientists, policy-makers to farmers and small business people.
Signali upoštevajo kompleksne znanostvene izsledke in odražajo zavedanje negotovosti, ki so neločljiv del vseh zadev, ki se jim posvečamo. Naše ciljno občinstvo je širok krog ljudi – od študentov, oblikovalcev politike do kmetov in manjših podjetnikov.
Signals, which will be published in all 26 EEA languages, takes
Signali, ki bodo objavljeni v vseh 26 jezikih Agencije,
The lack of accounting for what matters in this relationship lies at the heart of the degradation we see all around us in our natural world.
Neupoštevanje tistega, kar je pomembno v tem odnosu, je osnova za propadanje, ki smo mu priča povsod okoli nas v našem naravnem svetu.
In 2006 Lord Nicolas Stern put a price on the impacts of climate change.
Leta 2006 je lord Nicolas Stern postavil ceno vplivov podnebnih sprememb.
He estimated that the cost of climate change impacts could be massively reduced if emissions of greenhouse gases were cut immediately.
Po njegovi oceni bi lahko stroške vplivov podnebnih sprememb drastično zmanjšali, če bi nemudoma zmanjšali emisije toplogrednih plinov.
Taking action now will be cheaper and more effective than actions later.
Ukrepanje zdaj bi bilo cenejše in učinkovitejše kot ukrepanje kasneje.
The Stern analysis has spawned initiatives in other policy areas, most notably biodiversity and ecosystem services.
Sternova analiza je imela za posledico množico pobud na drugih področjih politike, predvsem na področju biotske raznovrstnosti in storitev ekosistema.
Initiatives like Stern have helped people to understand what is at stake if we continue our current consumption patterns.
Pobude, kot je Sternova, so ljudem pomagale razumeti, kakšno je tveganje, če ne bomo spremenili obstoječih potrošniških navad.
Above all, we need to regain a sense of humility about the natural world because, as indigenous peoples have long understood, we must ultimately answer to nature.
Predvsem si moramo ponovno pridobiti smisel ponižnosti do naravnega sveta, saj – domorodni prebivalci se tega že dolgo zavedajo – moramo na koncu odgovarjati naravi.
Nature has rules and limits of its own.
Narava ima lastna pravila in omejitve.
Our natural world is the bedrock — not the backdrop — of our society.With Signals, we intend to contribute to this appreciation of the natural environment.
Naš naravni svet je osnova in ne kulisa naše družbe. S Signali želimo prispevati k spoštovanju naravnega okolja.
We hope to influence thinking and attitudes and effect the decisions that all of us make every day.
Upamo, da bomo vplivali na razmišljanje in odnose ter na odločitve, ki jih vsi sprejemamo vsak dan.
This will be an historic year for the environment culminating in a major UN meeting on climate change in Copenhagen next December.
Za okolje bo to zgodovinsko leto, ki bo vrhunec doseglo na pomembnem zasedanju ZN o podnebnih spremembah v Kopenhagnu naslednjega decembra.
The meeting, possibly the most important environmental gathering to date, must come up with a successor to the Kyoto Protocol.
Na zasedanju, ki bo prav mogoče najpomembnejši okoljski shod do zdaj, je treba oblikovati dokument, ki bo nasledil Kjotski protokol.
Greenhouse gas emissions are just one symptom of a much deeper issue: our inability to live sustainably.
Emisije toplogrednih plinov so samo eden od simptomov precej globljega vprašanja: naše nezmožnosti trajnostnega življenja.
However, the scale of these environmental problems should not paralyse us into inaction.
Vendar pa ne smemo pustiti, da bi nam razsežnost okoljskih težav preprečila ukrepanje.
It should raise our awareness and encourage us to develop new, more sustainable patterns of living, growing, producing and consuming.
Morala bi povzročiti še večje zavedanje in nas spodbuditi k razvijanju novih, bolj trajnostnih navad v življenju, gojenju, proizvajanju in potrošništvu.
Ultimately, we are talking about revaluing the fundamental elements of life.
Dejansko govorimo o prevrednotenju osnovnih elementov življenja.
At a time when money markets are looking for direction perhaps the environment can show the way.
V času, ko denarni trgi iščejo smer, nam morda okolje lahko pokaže pot.
Our natural world often provides a stunning backdrop to our daily lives.
Naš naravni svet pogosto predstavlja neverjetno kuliso za naše vsakodnevno življenje.
It may be a local stream, pond or stretch of beach. On a grander scale, we are struck by the beauty of the Alps or the Carpathian mountains, the ancient forests, the great rivers or the stunning coasts.
Lahko gre za lokalni potok, ribnik ali del obale, s širšega zornega kota pa smo prevzeti nad izjemno lepoto gorovja Alp in Karpatov, starodavnimi gozdovi, mogočnimi rekami ali čudovitimi obalami.
Beyond Europe, images of the Arctic and Antarctic ice masses, the rainforests of the Amazonia and the safari plains of Africa are imprinted on our minds.
Izven meja Evrope se navdušujemo nad arktičnimi in antarktičnimi ledenimi gorami, deževnimi gozdovi Amazonke in safarskimi planotami Afrike.
Much of our natural heritage is now under threat from unprecedented population growth and economic development.
Zdaj pa je precejšen del naše naravne dediščine ogrožen zaradi naraščanja prebivalstva in gospodarskega razvoja. Ko sem se rodila, je bilo na svetu 3 milijarde ljudi.
Today there are 6.7 billion of us and we expect the number to rise to 9 billion by 2050.
Danes nas je 6,7 milijard, do leta 2050 pa naj bi to število naraslo na 9 milijard.
The world’s economy, in terms of global gross domestic product (GDP), has grown at an unprecedented rate: in 1950 GDP was EUR 4 trillion.
Glede na skupen bruto domači proizvod (BDP) svetovno gospodarstvo raste kot še nikoli: leta 1950 je BDP znašal 4 bilijone EUR.
In 2007 it was over EUR 42 trillion.
Leta 2007 je že presegel 42 bilijonov EUR.
This ten fold increase has several key drivers, not least the movement of raw materials and goods — which come from our environment. In contrast to this economic growth, our environment has suffered.
To desetkratno povečanje je posledica več ključnih vzvodov, med drugim tudi gibanja surovin in blaga, ki vsi izhajajo iz našega okolja.V nasprotju z gospodarsko rastjo pa naše okolje trpi.
Glaciers are melting in Europe’s mountain ranges with more river flooding expected as a consequence and misery for millions of ordinary people.
V evropskih pogorjih se talijo ledeniki, posledično se pričakuje vse več poplavljanja rek in obup milijonov običajnih ljudi.
Arctic summer sea ice is receding and thinning faster than ever: in 2007 the extent of the sea ice was half that measured in the 1950s.
Arktični poletni led se zmanjšuje in tanjša hitreje kot kdaj koli: leta 2007 je bilo morskega ledu pol manj kot leta 1950.
Around the world, more than a billion, mostly poor, people rely on fisheries for their food and livelihoods.
Po vsem svetu se več kot milijarda ljudi – večinoma revnih – prehranjuje in preživlja z ribolovom.
However, half of all wild fisheries have been fully exploited.
Vendar pa je v celoti izkoriščena že polovica vseh prostoživečih rib.
The majority of today’s commercial fisheries are likely to have collapsed by 2050 if current trends are not reversed.
Večina današnjega gospodarskega ribištva bo do leta 2050 propadla, če se trenutni trendi ne obrnejo.
Back on land, rainforests are being decimated for developments that take no account of the many valuable ecological services they provide.
Na kopnem se deževni gozdovi desetkajo zaradi razvoja, ki ne upošteva številnih dragocenih ekoloških storitev, ki jih ti gozdovi nudijo.
These trends may change our relationship with the natural world but not our reliance on it.
Ti trendi lahko spremenijo naš odnos z naravnim svetom, ne pa tudi naše odvisnosti od njega.
The natural resources provided by the planet underpin our economic activity and the very cohesion of our societies.
Naravni viri, ki jih zagotavlja planet, podpirajo gospodarsko dejavnost in tudi povezanost med družbenimi skupinami.
However, the way we organise our economies does not give sufficient recognition to the dependent nature of this relationship — there are no societies without environments,
Pa vendar, način, kako organiziramo svoja gospodarstva ne upošteva dovolj naše odvisnosti od tega odnosa – ne obstajajo družbe brez okolij, obstajajo pa okolja brez družb.

Global diplomacy and the search for a successor to the Kyoto Protocol
Globalna diplomacija ter iskanje dokumenta, ki bi nasledil Kjotski protokol
Every winter the gates of Copenhagen's famous Tivoli Gardens, an old world amusement park in the city centre, open to officially mark the beginning of the extended Christmas period.
Vsako leto se v središču Kopenhagna odprejo vrata znamenitega starega zabaviščnega parka Tivoli Gardens, s čimer je uradno zaznamovan začetek podaljšanega božičnega obdobja.
This December the twinkling lights of Tivoli will most likely be outshone by COP 15 — the most important global climate change meeting ever — as thousands of diplomats, politicians, business people, environmentalists and climate experts from around the globe flock to the Danish capital.
Tega decembra bo svetleče luči Tivolija verjetno zasenčil COP 15 – najpomembnejše zasedanje o podnebnih spremembah v zgodovini – saj se v dansko prestolnico zgrinja na tisoče diplomatov, politikov, poslovnežev, okoljevarstvenikov in strokovnjakov za podnebje z vsega sveta.
EEA SIGNALS 2009 / CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION / 7 nations like China and India, which have rapidly developing economies, have no targets under the protocol.
EEA SIGNALI 2009 / OMILITEV PODNEBNIH SPREMEMB / 7 niso ratificirale in ker ne določa ciljev za države v razvoju, kot sta Kitajska in Indija, katerih gospodarstvi se hitro razvijata.
The challenge of climate change, and what we do about it, will define us, our era, and ultimately, our global legacy
Izziv podnebnih sprememb in kako bomo ukrepali v zvezi z njimi bo opredelilo nas, našo dobo in končno tudi našo vsesplošno zapuščino
The EEA — one part of the puzzle
Agencija – en del sestavljanke
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon
Generalni sekretar ZN Ban Ki-Moon gojene kulture, uporabe gnojil in števila živine (govedo, perutnina, ovce, svinje itn.) v državi.
The meeting is a crucial step in a process dating back to 1992 and the UN’s 'Earth Summit' in Rio de Janeiro.
Ravno tako kot so na primer športniki redno preverjani glede upoštevanja pravil, se tudi tu izvaja redno spremljanje.
The summit resulted in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) which forms the legal basis for global efforts to address climate change.
Podatki se združijo in ustvari se celotna slika emisij v vsej Evropi, ki se pošlje Evropski komisiji, od tam pa se prek Evropske skupnosti uradno predloži UNFCCC.
Just as athletes are regularly tested to make sure they stay within the rules, there is regular monitoring.
Ker se podatki najprej preverijo na nacionalni ravni, so pripravljeni z zamudo leta in pol.
The latest report released in June 2008 is based on data from 2006.
Zadnje poročilo, ki je bilo objavljeno junija 2008, temelji na podatkih iz leta 2006.
It shows that emissions from the EU-15 were 3 % below the 'base year'.
Prikazuje, da so bile emisije EU-15 nižje od vrednosti „izhodiščnega leta″ za 3 %.
What do the numbers mean?
Kaj pomenijo številke?
Kyoto — a first step in cutting emissions
Zasedanja Konvencije, znana kot konference pogodbenic (COP), so potekala vsako leto od 1994.
The EEA climate change team plays a role in the European effort, coordinating an accountancy job of enormous proportions.
Skupina za podnebne spremembe v okviru agencije EEA ima pomembno vlogo pri evropskih prizadevanjih, saj usklajuje računovodske aktivnosti gromozanskih razsežnosti.
Data from around Europe on emissions of so-called greenhouse gases are collected, verified and then analysed in two key reports that feed into the Kyoto process.
Podatki o emisijah t.i. toplogrednih plinov se zbirajo iz vse Evrope, preverjajo in nato analizirajo v dveh ključnih poročilih, ki se uporabljata v kjotskem procesu.
This year, the numbers and the analysis they facilitate, have a particular significance in the context of the COP 15 meeting as they clearly show how the EU is doing with its own efforts to cut emissions of greenhouse gases.
Letos so podatki in analiza, ki jo omogočajo, posebej pomembni za zasedanje COP 15, saj jasno prikazujejo, kako napredujejo prizadevanja EU za zmanjšanje emisij toplogrednih plinov.
Countries that have not signed up or do not yet have targets will be especially interested in how well the EU is implementing the protocol.
Države, ki v tem ne sodelujejo ali še niso določile ciljev, bo še posebej zanimalo, kako učinkovito EU izvaja protokol.
The inventory report — counting gases
Poročilo o popisu – računanje plinov
The concept of counting gases is quite abstract.
Zamisel o računanju plinov je precej abstraktna.
As a result it is also difficult to figure out what a percentage cut or increase in emissions means.
Zato je tudi težko ugotoviti, kaj pomeni zmanjšanje ali povečanje emisij, izraženo v odstotkih.
It may help to imagine the cuts as days of the year.
Pomaga, če si zmanjšanja predstavljamo kot dneve v letu. Kjotski cilj za EU-15 je enak emisijam v 29 dneh.
In this way, emission reductions must occur consistently over several years.The latest EEA data show that 10 days worth of emissions were cut between 1990 and 2006.
Tako je treba emisije dosledno zmanjševati več let. Zadnji podatki agencije EEA kažejo, da so se v obdobju od 1990 do 2006 emisije zmanjšale za 10 dni.
The EU-15 must cut 19 more days to meet the target.
EU-15 morajo za dosego cilja emisije zmanjšati še za 19 dni.
Trends and projections
Gibanja in napovedi
The Kyoto Protocol, signed in 1997 as an extension of the UNFCCC, is a first step in the long-term emissions reduction effort that is needed to prevent dangerous levels of climate change.
Kjotski protokol, podpisan leta 1997 kot razširitev UNFCCC, je bil prvi korak v dolgoročnih prizadevanjih za zmanjšanje emisij, ki je potrebno za preprečevanje rayvoja nevarnih podnebnih sprememb.
The first commitment period of the protocol effectively runs out in 2012 and 'COP 15' will be expected to produce an ambitious successor.Kyoto is significant because it set binding emission targets for the developed countries that ratified it.
Prvo ciljno obdobje protokola se izteče leta 2012 in „COP 15″ naj bi dal ambicioznega naslednika.
For example, the 15 countries who were members of the EU (EU-15) in 1997 have a joint target to cut emissions by 8 % compared to the Kyoto 'base year' (1).
Kjotski protokol je pomemben, ker je postavil zavezujoče cilje glede emisij za razvite države, ki so ga potrdile.
Statistics on energy use, by type of fuel, are multiplied by 'emissions factors' and the energy emission is estimated by each country. Emissions
Na primer, 15 držav, ki so bile članice EU (EU-15) leta 1997, ima skupni cilj 8-odstotno zmanjšanje emisij v primerjavi z „izhodiščnim letom″ po
Different gases have different 'base years' under Kyoto.
1) Za različne pline Kjotski protokol določa različna „izhodiščna leta".
For carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide (99 % of all emissions) 1990 is used as the 'base year' for all EU-15 Member States.
Za ogljikov dioksid, metan in dušikov oksid (99 % vseh emisij) je za vse države članice EU-15 kot „izhodiščno leto" določeno 1990.
For fluorinated gases, countries can choose another year instead.
Za fluorirane pline lahko države izberejo drugo leto.
Twelve EU-15 Member States have chosen 1995.
Dvanajst izmed 15 držav članic EU je izbralo leto 1995.2) Države EU-15 imajo skupen cilj po kjotskem protokolu.
The EU-15 has a joint Kyoto target.
V okviru tega cilja pa ima vsaka država članica EU-15 lastno ciljno zmanjšanje:
Within this, each EU-15 Member State has a differentiated reduction target: some should reduce emissions while others are allowed a limited increase.
( nekatere morajo zmanjšati emisije, druge pa lahko le omejijo njihovo naraščanje.
New EU Member States have individual targets except Cyprus and Malta, which have no targets.
Nove države članice EU imajo posamezne cilje, razen Cipra in Malte, ki jih nimata.
8 / EEA SIGNALS 2009 / CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION or they will not impact in time to meet the target, the report says.At a national level France, Greece, Sweden and the United Kingdom had already reached their Kyoto target in 2006.
8 / EEA SIGNALI 2009 / OMILITEV PODNEBNIH SPREMEMB uspele pravočasno doseči cilja, pravi poročilo. Na nacionalni ravni so Francija, Grčija, Švedska in Združeno kraljestvo kjotski cilj že dosegli v letu 2006.
Austria, Belgium, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Portugal project that they will achieve their targets, but projections from Denmark, Italy and Spain indicate that they will not meet their emission reduction goals.
Avstrija, Belgija, Finska, Nemčija, Irska, Luksemburg, Nizozemska in Portugalska načrtujejo, da bodo cilj dosegle, napovedi Danske, Italije in Španije pa kažejo, da ne bodo izpolnile ciljev glede zmanjšanja emisij.
Most importantly, the report looks ahead and evaluates projections of future greenhouse gas emissions as far as 2012 and beyond to 2020.
je poročilo usmerjeno v prihodnost in ocenjuje napovedi o prihodnjih emisijah toplogrednih plinov vse do leta 2012 in naprej, do leta 2020.
This future perspective is invaluable in terms of seeing the extent of the problem ahead and developing policy to deal with it (3).The latest Trends and projections report confirms that the EU-15 cut its emissions by 3 % between the 'base year' and 2006.
Ta vpogled v prihodnost je neprecenljiv kar zadeva razumevanje razsežnosti problema in oblikovanje politike za njegovo reševanje (3). Zadnje poročilo Gibanja in napovedi potrjuje, da so EU-15 zmanjšale emisije za 3 % od „izhodiščnega leta″ do 2006.
A combination of approaches will be needed to fill the remaining gap, the report says.
Da bi premostili še preostalo vrzel, bo potrebnih več različnih pristopov, piše v poročilu.
Existing and planned 'domestic' efforts (happening on the ground in each country), Kyoto mechanisms, carbon sinks (such as planting trees to soak up gases) and trading carbon credits will all be used and could result in a potential emissions reduction of 11 % for the EU-15.
Uporabljena bodo obstoječa in načrtovana „domača″ prizadevanja (na območju posameznih držav), kjotski mehanizmi, ponori ogljika (npr. zasaditev dreves za vsrkavanje plinov) in trgovanje z ogljikovimi krediti, ki lahko privedejo do morebitnega zmanjšanja emisij za 11 % v EU-15.
However, countries must implement planned measures very soon
Vendar pa morajo države načrtovane ukrepe uvesti zelo kmalu, sicer ne bodo
Emissions from the EU-15 were 3 % below 'base year' levels in 2006, according to the latest EEA data.
Najnovejši podatki Agencije kažejo, da so bile emisije EU-15 leta 2006 nižje od vrednosti v „izhodiščnem letu″ za 3 %.

– 1 za vse industrijske lokacije, ki oddajajo

2 lahko razliko prodajo v obliki emisijskih kuponov drugim podjetjem, ki jim emisij ni uspelo dovolj zmanjšati.
In this way a carbon market has developed.
Tako se je razvil trg ogljika.
The EU ETS is currently estimated to reduce EU-15 emissions by more than 3 % (4).
Po trenutnih ocenah je program EU trgovanja z emisijami zmanjšal emisije EU-15 za več kot 3 % (4).
