OECD ENVIRONMENTAL OUTLOOK (2001, methodology): “The module algorithms and scenarios rely on an update of the Global Scenario Group’s Bending the Curve scenarios (Raskin et al., 1998; Heaps et al., 1998).”
Scenario Archetypes: Converging rather than Diverging Themes (2011, unknown): “NSP is a more cosmopolitan vision than EC, because it is a world that would transcend and transform urban and industrial civilization, and maintain global linkages and solidarity, rather than retreat into localism [10].”
Assessing Future Ecosystem Services: a Case Study of the Northern Highlands Lake District, Wisconsin (2003, background): “There is less experience with scenarios for regional or local conservation problems (Greeuw et al. 2000, Rotmans et al. 2000, Wollenberg et al. 2000), although global scenarios are often built upward from regional analyses (Raskin et al. 1998).”
Great Transition: The Promise and Lure of the Times Ahead (2002, unknown): “As the third in a trilogy, Great Transition builds on the earlier Branch Points (Gallopín et al., 1997), which introduced the GSG’s scenario framework, and Bending the Curve (Raskin et al., 1998), which analyzed the long-term risks and prospects for sustainability within conventional development fut”
Ecological forecasts: an emerging imperative. (2001, background): “When reaction to anticipated change is possible, it is appropriate to explore scenarios that are as consistent as possible with current scientific understanding but are not predictions (47, 48).”
Changing development paths: From an energy-intensive to low-carbon economy in South Africa (2009, background): “‘Bending the curve’ requires a long-term perspective, but also involves policy changes in the immediate future (Raskin et al., 1998).”
Sustainability economics: Where do we stand? (2008, unknown): “…important to any consideration of long-term sustainability (Ayres and Kneese, 1969; D'Arge and Kogiku, 1973; Boulding, 1978; Ayres, 1989; Cleveland, 1991; Costanza, 1991a; Common and Perrings, 1992; Ayres, 1993a; Allen, 1994; Ayres, 1994a; Goodland and Daly, 1996; Raskin et al., 1998; Rees, 1999).”
Issues related to mitigation in the long-term context (2007, background): “…storylines that describe futures is rich going back to the first global studies of the 1970s (e.g. Kahn et al., 1976; Kahn and Weiner, 1967) and is also well represented in more recent literature (e.g. Peterson and Peterson, 1994; Gallopin et al., 1997; Raskin et al., 1998; Glenn and Gordon, 1997).”
Energy policies for sustainable development in South Africa's residential and electricity sectors Implications for mitigating climate change (2007, background): “‘Bending the curve’ requires a long-term perspective, but also involves policy changes in the immediate future (Raskin et al. 1998).”
