The RESCUE study describes in six scenarios possible development paths towards a resource-efficient and greenhouse-gas (GHG) neutral Germany until 2050. For this assumptions related to the level of ambition for reaching GHG-neutrality the magnitude of materials- and energy-efficiency and the implementation of sustainable life-styles are varied. Until 2050 GHG-emissions can be reduced by 95 percent to 97 percent compared to 1990-levels. Net zero emissions can be achieved through sustainable agriculture and forestry management. Primary raw materials consumption is reduced by 56 percent to 70 percent (however an increased demand for certain raw materials is also observed). This summary report provides a concise overview of the central assumptions results and policy-relevant conclusions from this multi-year research project.
