Finally, it is important to consider that while we believe the four approaches to anticipation identified in this paper cover the breadth of what can be found in diverse relevant literatures, this does not mean that other approaches to anticipation cannot be imagined. It will be worth investigating what other, entirely distinct approaches might be possible, and what such approaches might yield in addressing significant sustainability and climate challenges. Our identification of four approaches to anticipatory governance allows for better scrutiny of such proliferating practices of anticipation in climate policy and planning contexts around the world. Our aim here has been to further understanding of their nature and implications for research and policy-making, and how they prioritize a range of present-day actions in the effort to realize diverse visions of transformative, climate-safe futures. Finally, we see our framework as offering the potential for reflexive interdisciplinary communication across a range of anticipation and anticipatory governance research communities, in order to clarify linkages and explore synergies between these approaches.
