The Review is one of the most widely respected and authoritative publications in the field of energy economics, used for reference by the media, academia, world governments and energy companies. A new edition is published every June.	438

4	Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage The report has been developed in response to an invitation of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) at its seventh Conference of Parties (COP7) in 2001. (pdf-file)	557
5	Climate Change 2007: The Physical Science Basis Contribution of Working Group I to the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change The report that changed the world: Now it is beyond doubts that climate change is here and that it is man made.	422
6	Energy Issues for Scotland This report by the Royal Socity of Edinburgh discuss a number of critical issues about the supply of and demand for energy in Scotland over the next two decades. Many of the same issuses faces other countries in western Europe. (pdf-file)	427
7	Energy [R]evolution This report by Greenpeace provides a blueprint showing how to apply existing technologies to halve global CO2 emissions by 2050, whilst allowing for an increase in energy consumption. The report is divided into 10 regional reports, with a global summary. It demonstrates how a 'business as usual' scenario is not an option if we are to attain a secure and stable energy supply	514
8	Environmental Policy Integration in Europe - Administrative Culture and Practices The report presents an overview of administrative culture and practices for EPI in Europe and investigates some of the main management styles used. It reviews institutional structures and practices in the EU-25, the candidate and applicant countries, the countries of the European Free Trade Area (EFTA) and the countries of eastern Europe, Caucasus and central Asia (EECCA).	378
9	EUROPE 2005: The Ecological Footprint EUROPE 2005: The Ecological Footprint is a report showing that Europe uses 20 percent of the biosphere's services to serve seven percent of the world's population - a resource demand that has risen nearly 70 percent since 1961.	360
10	Europe's Demographic Future Low fertility rates, ageing populations, and a growing number of migrants from other countries and world regions - these are the factors that are set to change the face of Europe in the course of the coming decades. The stage was set for this development decades ago, but the zenith of ageing in European societies will be reached only in 30 - 40 years. It is very unlikely that Europe's population will grow much further, and shrinkage, the inevitable consequence, could soon set in.	390
