„Der Klimawandel beeinflusst Nahrungsmittelpreise, Produktivität, Gesundheit, Landwirtschaft, Strombedarf – eigentlich fast jeden gesellschaftlich relevanten Bereich.“

In der #Ringvorlesung zum #Klimaschutz an der @tuberlin.bsky.social geht es heute ab 16:15 darum, wie multiskalige Erdbeobachtung dazu beiträgt, die Verletzlichkeit von Ökosystemen zu verstehen und Strategien für Klimaschutz zu entwickeln. Es referiert Prof. Christine Wallis. Mehr Infos & Anmeldung:
… is to emphasize that our paper’s qualitative conclusions are strongly supported by a wider evidence base: climate change has substantial impacts on the economy, these are very unequally distributed and outweigh the costs of ambitious climate policy.
This week we retracted our 2024 Nature paper in response to two matters arising. We are grateful for the community‘s engagement and have worked on addressing the issues raised - but the changes exceed a mere correction of the published article. More info below. What is really important to me …
Heute Abend diskutieren wir im #Futurium Berlin über die Zukunft der Wissenschafskommunikation - mit Utopiemobil!
If you’re in Leeds on the 15th of October, come to my inaugural lecture on “Facing Accelerating Climate Change Threat - Exploring Future Trajectories, Surveying the Past and the Present” www.tickettailor.com/events/fssev...

#Klimawandel kennt keine Ländergrenzen – seine Folgen aber treffen uns weltweit und oft ungerecht verteilt. 🌍🔥
Klimaökonomin @leoniewenz.bsky.social vom @pik-potsdam.bsky.social zeigt im aktuellen #JAM31, warum wir globale Antworten brauchen:

And finally, on Thursday, Anna Reckwitz will talk about the „The impact of freshwater changes on economic production worldwide“, in the Impacts of climate change and policy session
This afternoon, Jakob Wedemeyer will then share insights from our work on “Climate-induced cross-border migration at global scales“ in the Climate change impacts: health, food and migration session
Today in the Carbon leakage egg timer session, Timothé Beaufils will present our WP „The potential of carbon border adjustments to foster climate cooperation“, joint work with @joschkawanner.bsky.social
Sadly, I can’t be at #EAERE2025 myself but lots of our work will be presented 👇🏼
Wie häufig und wie prominent werden welche Klimawandel-Themen in der Tagesschau behandelt? Das hat Tanja Schirmag in ihrer Bachelorarbeit am PIK @pik-potsdam.bsky.social und der Uni Potsdam @unipotsdam.bsky.social untersucht. Die Ergebnisse wurden heute in Comms Earth & Environment veröffentlicht 🎉
How often and how prominently are which climate change-related topics covered in Germany’s major TV news program Tagesschau? In her Bachelor’s thesis, Tanja Schirmag developed an NLP-based algorithm and applied neural topic modeling to find out. The results have just been published 🎉
Important indeed!
Timothé Beaufils, @leoniewenz.bsky.social and I investigate exactly this strategic dimension of the CBAM in our joint work: www.cesifo.org/en/publicati...
NEW: Fossil fuel firms like Chevron and Exxon owe the world trillions of dollars. Today in @nature.com, @jsmankin.bsky.social and I show economic losses from rising heat waves directly traceable to these firms, providing scientific support for climate accountability.

Thank you for hosting me (and the prize!) - I had a great time with inspiring and insightful discussions!
Lesenswerter FAZ-Beitrag zu den Kosten, wenn Klimaschutz vernachlässigt wird: Menschenleben, Sachschäden, Konflikte und Unruhen, Flüchtlingsströme… Die Frage ist deshalb nicht, OB sondern WIE der Klimaschutz vorangetrieben werden sollte.
Our recent Nature publication on the economic cost of climate change came in second!
Only one week left to apply for 1 of 2 PhD positions investigating the behavioral barriers of the green transition with me at University of Copenhagen. jobportal.ku.dk/phd/?show=16...
Planning your climate or environment syllabus? I like to show short videos so students & I can visualize some of the things we're talking about. Here are some of the ones I like:
