"Das Klima”, der Podcast zur Wissenschaft hinter der Krise. Wir lasen den [sechsten Bericht](https://www.ipcc.ch) des Weltklimarats und erklären den aktuellen Stand der Klimaforschung. In Folge 152 sind wir wieder im Normalbetrieb. Und heben gleich ab ins Weltall: Dort scheint die Sonne ständig und es wäre wesentlich einfacher, Solarstrom zu erzeugen. Das würde natürlich viel kosten, aber selbst wenn der Solarstrom aus dem All teurer ist als der von der Erde, könnten wir damit in Zukunft quasi unseren gesamten Bedarf damit decken. Denn am Ende wäre das für die Stromnetze besser (und damit auch insgesamt billiger) als die Alternativen.

8/8. Professor Eric Cline categorizes the Minoans (Crete) and Mycenaeans (mainland Greece) as societies that failedthe collapse in After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations. Despite outward vibrancy, they were internally fragile and vulnerable, possibly due to overextension, drought, famine, or internal uprisings. Cline applies IPCC definitions, classifying societies as "transforming," "adapting," or "coping," with the Minoans and Mycenaeans ultimately disappearing completely, illustrating their failure to recover. 1700 BABYLON

In this special episode, revisit this conversation with Prof. Tim Benton, as we remind ourselves of the devastating potential of the tail risks from climate change. Our regular listeners will know that we usually to take a break from the podcast in August. But every once in a while, in this fast-moving field of climate and sustainability, it's helpful to pause and reflect on where we've been, what we've learned, and how far we've come. That's why we're re-releasing this episode from the archives, and revisiting a conversation that's just as relevant today - if not more so - than when it first aired in late 2021. This conversation about the tail risks from climate change left a huge impression on us at the GARP Risk Institute. The framing of climate risk as non-linear, deeply complex, and capable of amplifying other risks from food insecurity to political instability, was enormously influential on the direction of this podcast. Today, where the window for an orderly transition is rapidly narrowing, it's all the more important that we remember the extent of the risks posed by climate change. This episode explores: Why the risks associated with even 2.0◦C warming are greater than you might think; How climate risks are transmitted through, and amplified by, our interconnected economy; and How risk professionals can best prepare for the complex and unpredictable risks of climate change.

From 2011 to 2016, Tim was the ‘champion' of the UK's Global Food Security programme. He has also been a contributing author for the IPCC and has more than 150 published academic papers to his name. 

Hitzewellen, Stürme, Starkregen: Extreme Wetterereignisse nehmen zu. Sie richten nicht nur große Sachschäden an, sondern kosten auch immer mehr Menschen das Leben. In dieser Podcast-Folge fragt Iska Schreglmann: Was können wir tun, ums uns vor den Folgen des Klimawandels zu schützen? Ein Gespräch mit dem Humangeographen Prof. Matthias Garschagen von der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in München. Autorin: Iska Schreglmann Redaktion: Sarah Bioly Wir kennen das alle: Wenn etwas schnell fertig werden muss, der Zeitdruck steigt, und es auf jedes Detail ankommt. Aber bei den wenigsten von uns hängt vom Ergebnis gleich das Wohl der Gesellschaft ab - oder sogar das der ganzen Menschheit. Die Menschen, die wir für unsere Reihe "Forschung unter Druck" interviewt haben, befinden sich in genau dieser Situation. Forschung soll schnell Lösungen liefern. Oft unter Zeitdruck, mit knappen Ressourcen und großer öffentlicher Aufmerksamkeit. Wie gehen Forschende mit diesem Druck um? Und vor allem: Welche Lösungen entwickeln sie?

As global temperatures continue to skyrocket, the once unthinkable is now within view: overshooting 1.5°C of warming. This limit, set out in the Paris Agreement, has defined a decade of climate action, but is fast approaching. So what happens next?This week, Tom, Christiana and Paul grapple with the latest science, the looming risks of climate tipping points, and the urgent need to prepare for the worst - even while hoping and working for the best. They're joined by Ricken Patel, former Founding CEO of global activism nonprofit Avaaz, who is now calling us to take the possibility of overshoot seriously, and to build the political, technological and social capacity to bring temperatures back down.From nature-based solutions to novel carbon dioxide removal and solar radiation management, this episode considers the broad spectrum of options on the table, and the challenges they present. Why has climate contingency planning been missing from the political debate? And does simply talking about it risk slowing climate action?These aren't just questions of what we might do in the future - but of what we're prepared to act on now.Learn more

In this episode, Michael speaks with Rachelle Gould, Associate Professor at the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources and an Environmental Fellow at the Gund Institute at the University of Vermont. Rachelle is a prominent and productive scholar on several topics, and one of the main ones she has written about is relational values, which were introduced to represent a different way of relating to the environment that hadn't been expressed by the more traditional dichotomy of intrinsic and extrinsic value. Relational values have become very popular within academia and have become a focal point of publications by the The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, or IPBES, which Rachelle describes as the IPCC for Biodiversity. Rachelle was also a Lead Author on the recent IPBES Values Assessment. During their conversation, Michael asks Rachelle about some concerns he has about relational values, primarily that it seemed to be so popular that it was becoming a way of labeling anything that we like as relational, and secondly, that it had become a new panacea: something that doesn't present trade-offs but which we should simply want more of, regardless of context. They discuss these concerns as well as the significant value that Rachelle sees in a concept that can better represent how human beings can and do relate to the natural world.

Perante os episódios de calor extremo cada vez mais recorrentes, como é que as cidades se podem adaptar? França viveu a 51ª onda de calor extremo desde 1947 e a segunda este verão. Os alertas vermelhos por causa do calor e do risco de incêndio multiplicaram-se em vários países europeus. Tendo em conta que as ondas de calor são uma consequência previsível do aumento dos gases com efeito de estufa na atmosfera, o que fazer e como proteger a população contra o calor extremo? Raquel Estrócio, arquitecta paisagista a viver em Paris, dá-nos algumas pistas. RFI: Como é que as cidades, de uma forma global, se podem adaptar às ondas de calor extremo cada vez mais recorrentes? Qual seria a prioridade? Raquel Estrócio, Arquitecta paisagista: “Usualmente, os projectos hoje em dia são feitos de forma a aumentar a vegetação nas cidades, sobretudo a nível arbóreo, colocar vegetação arbórea nas vias que não têm vegetação, aumentar as zonas e os pontos de água. Mas nem todas as cidades, nem todos os lugares podem abarcar com estas soluções. Portanto, algumas proteções físicas de toldos, de proteção específica em alguns lugares e alguns pontos de água para a população poder usufruir são essenciais. Mas, sobretudo, olhando as cidades de uma forma global, terá que se integrar a vegetação e o planeamento urbano de outra forma. Por exemplo, no Sul de Portugal e em Portugal há cidades que vão ter que optar por um urbanismo mais norte-africano, indo buscar as soluções árabes de pátios, de ruas mais pequenas, em que a sombra é a prioridade, enquanto que aqui em França, por exemplo, a vegetação ainda é uma solução possível.” Mas quando há períodos de seca, quando há estas ondas de calor, a vegetação também sofre, também seca, também precisa de água. Essa é uma solução durável? “Por isso é que em Portugal, hoje em dia, as soluções terão que passar por essa reformulação do urbanismo e da escala urbana e da forma urbana, enquanto as soluções em França ainda podem passar pela vegetação. Contudo, a vegetação tem de ser adaptada porque a vegetação que era habitualmente usada, por exemplo, em Paris, não poderá ser a mesma. E aí ela tem que ser adaptada a estes extremos climáticos que, muitas das vezes, obrigam a usar uma vegetação que é mais do sul de França ou é mais mediterrânica. Então é essa transformação que profissionais que trabalham o espaço urbano precisam de reflectir e mediante também as capacidades que as plantas têm porque as plantas também se adaptam, são seres vivos. Mas as culturas e as plantas utilizadas, para não utilizar tanta rega que é uma coisa que usamos muito em projectos de espaço público e vegetação, pode não ser utilizada e pode ser utilizada vegetação adaptada.” Há árvores mais propícias para combater, digamos assim, o aquecimento? “Não é que combatam. Elas adaptam-se a essas alterações.” Conseguem refrescar?... “Há algumas que conseguem refrescar, mas, por exemplo, se pensarmos no Alentejo, nos sobreiros e nas azinheiras, a sombra não é totalmente refrescante, mas o clima, o solo e a possibilidade que a vegetação tem de sobrevivência também não é a mesma. Não podemos colocar uma vegetação do norte da Europa no sul da Europa, por exemplo.” Mas podemos ir buscar os exemplos do Sul da Europa e do Sul, de África. “Do Norte de África sim. Podemos usar os mecanismos urbanos de países que não necessitam de artifícios tecnológicos como o ar condicionado e evitá-lo ao máximo porque aumenta as emissões e aumenta o calor na cidade. Portanto, toda esta vegetação que começa a progredir mais para Norte, pode ser adaptada e pode ser gerida aumentando a sombra, ela vai aumentar a capacidade de refrescar as cidades. Mas não podemos só pensar dessa forma. Temos que pensar que ela vai permitir a infiltração da água. Usar materiais também claros nas construções e no urbanismo também aumenta o albedo, aumenta a capacidade que a cidade tem em reflectir a luz solar.” O que é o albedo? “É o poder das superfícies de reflectir a luz solar.” Nas cidades, por exemplo, em Paris, há muito betão, muito cimento e alcatrão. Não podemos alterar isso de um dia para o outro ou podemos? “Progressivamente podemos. Os projetos, hoje em dia, em França, em toda a Europa, em todo o mundo, contrastam com os projectos dos anos 70 ou 80 porque cada vez mais se utilizam materiais que reflectem, materiais permeáveis, materiais que não limitam a natureza, mas que trabalham com ela.” Agora as pessoas estão a viver esta onda de calor na Europa. Estamos a fazer esta entrevista em Paris, onde os apartamentos são muito pequenos e muito quentes. Quais são as soluções para as pessoas que vivem em apartamentos numa zona de densidade urbana muito grande? “Há uma solução que a Câmara Municipal de Paris começou a implementar há uns anos que é abrir os parques à noite, alguns parques, como o Montsouris, como o Buttes Chaumont. Algumas pessoas são contra, e eu percebo por causa da segurança, mas como é à noite que nós regulamos a temperatura do corpo, quando há dias seguidos de temperaturas altas - como aconteceu em 2003, como a segunda-feira negra em Paris, em que houve uma grande quantidade de pessoas que não aguentou e que não resistiu - sobretudo as pessoas mais idosas e as crianças que também estão no processo de desenvolver essa capacidade de regular a temperatura interna do corpo deveriam sair para refrescar e estar em parques à noite ou ao fim do dia para precisamente permitir que o corpo se regule um pouco. Portanto, em muitos dias seguidos de temperaturas altas, as pessoas devem tentar encontrar mecanismos individuais em casa para reduzir a temperatura do corpo, como colocar gelo nos punhos, dormir com ventoinhas...” Ar condicionado? “Há países do sul da Europa que não se aguenta sem ar condicionado, como por exemplo a Sicília, ou outros países do mundo em que é impossível passar o dia e a noite sem ar condicionado, mas ainda é possível em Paris e a ida aos parques ao fim do dia com amigos é uma solução. Ou então colocar gelo nos punhos e usar roupa branca durante o dia, chapéu, roupa branca larga que ajuda a reflectir, aumenta o albedo e reflecte a luz solar. E beber muita água, claro, mas isso toda a gente sabe.” E em relação às casas? Fechar os estores e as janelas ou abrir? “Eu acho que depende da casa. Nos apartamentos pequenos eu acho que essencialmente durante o dia é encontrar formas de cobrir as janelas com superfícies que reflectem ao máximo essa luz solar, superfícies o mais brancas possível ou que reflictam mesmo como espelhos. E depois, durante a noite, tentar abrir para haver corrente de ar, mas eu sei - porque já vivi numa casa assim - que há casas que são feitas de forma a que essa corrente de ar não exista e é muito difícil abrir duas janelas de um ponto oposto ao outro para que isso ocorra. E nesse sentido, mais vale descer, estar um bocadinho na rua, beber muita água ou tomar um banho de água fria.” As cidades ocidentais estão preparadas para o aquecimento climático em termos de urbanismo e de arquitectura? “As alterações climáticas vão aumentar a temperatura, mas a questão essencial é que elas vão aumentar os extremos. Ou seja, os eventos extremos vão fazer com que haja mais picos de calor, mais picos de tempestades, mais picos de chuvas intensas, de inundações e as cidades não estão, nenhuma cidade no mundo, está adaptada a isso. Nem as cidades, nem o território porque nós estamos a viver uma inconstância de eventos. Ou são os fogos, por exemplo, ou são as canículas, estes momentos de temperaturas muito elevadas, ou são as chuvas torrenciais que inundam Paris, Cabo Verde... Todo o mundo passa um pouco por esses eventos extremos e são esses eventos extremos que nós devemos olhar para o território e geri-lo e trabalhá-lo. Nenhum território no mundo inteiro está adaptado a isso.” Mas as cidades mais ricas dos países ocidentais têm mais dinheiro para lutar contra o impacto das alterações do que as cidades com menos meios. “Sem dúvida, mas mesmo dentro das cidades mais ricas ou mais pobres, há pessoas mais ricas. A desigualdade económica faz com que os mais ricos se safem mais. Claro.” O que é que as políticas de urbanismo e os próprios políticos deveriam fazer nos próximos tempos para aprender com todas estas lições? A prioridade? “Estar aberto à ciência, estar atento e ouvir os cientistas. Todas as posições devem ser escutadas, não só as adaptações urbanas, o dinheiro que se vai precisar para que as cidades se tornem resilientes porque é a população que se deve tornar resiliente também. Mas ao mesmo tempo, hoje em dia, eu acho que é muito importante, é fundamental, ouvir cada vez mais os estudos que são mais de ponta, os estudos mais recentes, porque desde os primeiros cenários do GIEC ou IPCC até hoje, os cenários e as previsões foram-se alterando muito e aquilo que nós previmos há dez anos não é a mesma coisa de agora. Portanto, essas adaptações também vão ter que ser contemporâneas desses estudos, o que não acontece. O que acontece é que os estudos saem e daí até as universidades se actualizarem e até aos profissionais se actualizarem para implementar no território ocorre muito tempo e hoje em dia essa actualização deve ser permanente.” Mas tem que haver uma vontade política de ter opções mais ecológicas... “Isso, de certa forma, já há, embora haja um retrocesso nos últimos tempos politicamente. Eu creio que é ouvir a ciência, experimentar, não ficar apenas com uma solução, tentar encontrar diversas soluções, pensar no passado. Fala-se muito também de utilizar técnicas e formas urbanísticas ou de gestão do território passadas e é importante porque elas não eram baseadas em desenvolvimentos tecnológicos muito de ponta, como o betão, que foram importantes numa determinada altura e que eram mais adaptados ao território e que usavam a vegetação e os materiais que o território podia proporcionar. Mas os extremos climáticos hoje em dia também vão requerer uma adaptação dessas soluções. Um exemplo muito claro: antigamente projectava-se as pontes para as cheias dos cem anos. Hoje em dia é dos mil ou deve ser porque os extremos climáticos fazem com que sejam mais frequentes cheias que atinjam alturas muito maiores do que antigamente. Ou seja, a cheia dos mil anos é os valores, os caudais que num determinado momento ocorrem num território, que podem ser dramáticos e são dramáticos.”

Over klimaatverandering horen we bijna dagelijks en het IPCC waarschuwt: zonder ingrijpen moeten we later deze eeuw flink ingrijpen om de menselijke invloed tegen te gaan. Iets wat bomen perfect kunnenHelaas, de ontbossing raast door. Afrika verloor al 10% van zijn bossen, en in het Congobekken verdwijnt jaarlijks een gebied ter grootte van Nederland.Er bestaan oplossingen, maar het lijkt wel of schijnoplossingen het debat domineren. Gelukkig spreken met met Danielle van Oijen (Milieudefensie) over hoe we om moeten gaan met ontbossing: welke valkuilen moeten we vermijden, en hoe beschermen we wél effectief de bossen op onze aarde?Volg onze LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/africastpodcast?originalSubdomain=nlVoor mooie beelden, quizjes en 'behind the scenes', volg onze Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/africast_podcast/Link met Jos of Joeri via LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jos-hummelen/ & https://www.linkedin.com/in/joerinortier/

Tänäkin kesänä on jo koettu ihmishenkiä vaatineita ilmastonmuutoksen voimistamia sään ääri-ilmiöitä. Yhdysvalloissa Texasissa yli sata ihmistä kuoli rankkasateiden aiheuttamissa syöksytulvissa heinäkuun alussa. Tulva-alttiissa osavaltiossa varautumista on yritetty parantaa erityisen tulvarahaston avulla. Ohjelmassa haastateltavan texasilaisasiantuntijan mukaan konkreettisiin hankkeisiin rahaa on kuitenkin mennyt vasta vähän. Kaliforniaa puolestaan koettelevat entistä voimakkaammat maastopalot. Los Angelesissa maastopalot tuhosivat alkuvuodesta kymmeniä tuhansia asuntoja. Ohjelmassa kuullaan raportti Kaliforniasta ja selviää, otetaanko ilmastoriskit aiempaa paremmin huomioon jälleenrakentamisessa. Ilmastonmuutoksen huomioonottavia rakentamis- ja infraratkaisuja olisi syytä tehdä Suomessakin, vaikka tuhotulvilta ja jättimaastopaloilta Suomessa on ainakin toistaiseksi säästytty. Suomalaisasiantuntija kertoo mitä. Kansainvälisessä ilmastopaneelissa IPCC:ssä työskentelevä ilmastoprofessori kertoo, missä maassa ilmastoriskeihin, kuten tappaviin helteisiin, on onnistuttu varautumaan parhaiten. Ohjelman lopuksi vieraillaan arkeologisilla kaivauksilla Kreikassa ja kuullaan, miten lisääntyvä paahde vaikuttaa työntekoon. Ohjelman ovat toimittaneet Johanna Juntunen, Sara Saure ja Paula Vilén.

[Non]conscious Influence: Understanding and Addressing Implicit BiasImplicit bias, or non-conscious bias, affects decision-making through stereotype activation and is connected to behavioral outcomes. Using the understanding of impact versus intent as a frame for learning about implicit bias will be highlighted to help reduce the negative influences of bias in the work.  At the conclusion of this presentation, discussion of cultural humility will create an opportunity for forward movement in self-discovery.Objectives: 1.  Describe concepts of impact versus intent for greater understanding of shifting focus2. Explain how implicit bias is formed and how it could affect decision-making3. Discuss strategies for creating opportunities to move forward in understanding cultural humility in our daily livesChris Martin, MSW, LMSW, PhDDr. Chris Martin is an Associate Professor and MSW Program Director in the School of Social Work at St. Ambrose University and serves as the Interim Associate Dean for the College of Health and Human Services.  She teaches both diversity and advanced individual and family skills courses in the School.  Her scholarship lies in the area of implicit racial bias and this led her to create a curriculum for the Iowa Department of Human Services to educate both employees of the Department and community members across the state in a 6 hour implicit bias learning exchange.  Dr. Martin is committed to the teaching and learning of bias, characteristics of white supremacy, antiracism, and social justice.

rWotD Episode 2993: Luis Veiga da Cunha Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Monday, 14 July 2025, is Luis Veiga da Cunha.Luis Veiga da Cunha (born 1936 in Lisbon), is a Portuguese scientist, Professor at the Department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering of the NOVA University Lisbon. He graduated in Civil Engineering at the Technical University of Lisbon and he holds a PhD degree from the same university. His main professional interests are related to Environment and Natural Resources Policies and Management, with a special emphasis on Water Resources.He worked in Portugal until 1983 in teaching, research and consulting activities. During this period he was involved in numerous research projects and undertook consulting and teaching work in Portugal and in several foreign countries.Between 1971 and 1983 he was Director of the Division of Hydrology and River Hydraulics of the National Laboratory of Civil Engineering, LNEC in Lisbon, where he initiated the development of several new lines of research in the areas of water resources management and planning and of sustainable use of water resources. He was Visiting Professor at Colorado State University (Fort Collins, Colorado) for the full academic year 1975-1976.Between 1983 and 1999 Veiga da Cunha lived in Brussels where he served as Administrator of the Scientific and Environmental Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. This Division was the executive arm for the programmes initiated by two Committees of the NATO Council: the Science Committee and the Committee on the Challenges of the Modern Society. The programmes of these two committees were originally intended to foster scientific, technological and environmental cooperation between the North American and the European NATO countries. Later, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, they mainly focused on cooperation between NATO countries and the so-called partner countries in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Among his responsibilities while serving at NATO, he launched and directed various programs in the area of the environment, in particular the Special Programs on “Environmental Security” and “The Science of Global Environmental Change”. Each of these areas developed into a large number of projects and about 60 books have been published based on the results.In 1999 Veiga da Cunha returned to Portugal, as a full Professor at the Nova University of Lisbon. He also became a member of the National Council on Environment and Sustainable Development since 2001 and of the National Water Council since its creation in 1994. From 2001 to 2005 he has served as the Portuguese national delegate to the NATO Science Committee.He was a member of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the United Nations (1999-2001) and a Lead Author of the chapter on Water Resources of the Third Assessment Report of the IPCC, published in 2001.

Ask anyone anywhere what's the leading cause of global heating and they'll tell you: fossil fuels. But what if we're all wrong? Gerard Wedderburn-Bisshop is a scientist for the World Preservation Foundation and worked as a Principal Scientist with Queensland Government Natural Resources, using satellite data to monitor three decades of vegetation cover and broadscale deforestation. In February 2025, he released a paper showing how the IPCC is using different models to calculate the emissions from fossil fuels and animal agriculture. Gerrard researches shows, when we use the same model for both, animal agriculture becomes the biggest driver of global heating. In this episode, Gerard explains his research and other problems with emissions calculation, including how deforestation is disregarded and methane is misrepresented. He calls all of this inconsistent emissions accounting—and it could be leading policy-leaders astray. Planet: Critical investigates why the world is in crisis.

CCS steht für Carbon Capture and Storage. Es bezeichnet eine Technologie, bei der CO2 aus der Luft abgesaugt oder am Ort der Emission aufgefangen werden soll, um danach in der Erdkruste verpresst zu werden. Was beim ersten Anblick logisch klingt, entpuppt sich aber als große Mogelpackung. Auch wenn es sicher ganz spezielle Fälle geben wird, bei denen CCS eine Option sein kann, so wird der Ansatz i der Breite sowohl aus Kapazitätsgründen aber auch aufgrund mangelnder Wirtscahftlichkeit keine Option sein. Dennoch verbreiten Vertreter:innen der Fossil-Lobby und ihre "nützlichen Idioten" das Märchen von CCS, um die sterbende alte Welt zu erhalten. Die amtierende Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche, die eigentlich eine Fossil-Lobbyistin ist, möchte CCS sogar für ihre Gaskraftwerke einsetzen. Dabei ist die Idee noch abstruser, weil der Großteil der Emissionen in der Vorkette entsteht. CCS steht symptomatisch für eine Vielzahl an Pinken Einhörnern der sterbenden GesternKleber Lobby, mit denen sie versucht, durch Belügen der Öffentlichkeit, ihre toxischen Geschäftsmodelle zu erhalten.

A lively conversation about how surveillance tech, created and tested in Israel & the US, targets climate refugees across the world. And how refugees have much better solutions than more of the same.In this episode the executive director of Climate Refugees, Amali Tower, crosses the globe from Israel/Palestine to the U.S.-Mexico borderlands to look at the technology that connects the seemingly disparate realities of warfare, surveillance, and immigration raids, putting them in the context of climate change and increasing global displacement. When people arrive to the U.S.-Mexico border, Tower says, they get “the same digital fortress, the same technical fortress, the same virtual wall, and the same physical wall that has been battle tested in Palestine and on Palestinians.”Stay to the end of the conversation, when we turn to alternatives and what people can do to make the world a better place. Amali talks about her visit to Arizona and Sonora last year, when we visited the binational fair trade coffee cooperative Café Justo in Agua Prieta. As you'll hear, this is a thriving example of an alternative to border militarization and an assertion of the right to stay home.Amali says that in the 10 years that she's been looking at the intersection of climate and displacement, she sees “blatant hypocrisy from countries seemingly supposedly caring about saving the planet for future generations to come” while they are simultaneously undermining “all those goals and plans and adaptations and all these wonderful things we are supposed to be doing for the so-called existential threat.”Instead, she continues, “When it comes to war and militarism, when it comes to borders, when it comes to keeping people out, it's incredible how we only have language and infrastructure and architecture to do that.”Here are links to sources mentioned in the conversation: a look at climate change in Israel/Palestine, and the IPCC report and one by Amali on the Mediterranean basin as a climate hot spot. And here is Amali's piece written in the aftermath of George Floyd's murder in 2020, “If Black Americans Were to Seek Asylum, They Could Qualify.”The separation wall in Bethlehem, Palestine in 2021.

Cyclone Alfred should not have tracked as far south as it did. But in March it tore through Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Northern Rivers, affecting about four million people. One of them was climate scientist and IPCC lead author, Joëlle Gergis. She says the storm’s freak southward drift, driven by record-warm ocean temperatures, shows the climate crisis is outrunning politics. Today, Joëlle Gergis on how far governments have fallen behind their climate promises – and the bold action Australia must take before the next disaster strikes.

Trots att det känns som länge sedan det var en president i Vita huset som satsade tusentals miljarder kronor på investeringar i grön teknik — och en Greta Thunberg som inspirerade till en av de allra största demonstrationerna någonsin — så fortsätter jordens medeltemperatur att ticka upp. Här gästas vi av Chalmersforskaren Daniel Johansson, som ägnat nästan tjugo år åt att forska på klimatomställningen. Vi tar avstamp i en nulägesrapport om den globala uppvärmningen. Daniel berättar om de senaste mätningarna kring global medeltemperatur, han går igenom koldbudgetar som återstår för att vi ska hålla oss inom 1,5 eller 2-gradersmålet — och berättar om osäkerheten kring klimatkänsligheten, alltså till vilken grad ökade koncentrationer påverkar den globala uppvärmningen. Men framförallt pratar vi om vägen mot att kunna klara klimatmålen. Vi pratar om en rad olika utmaningar och lösningar. Daniel går igenom hur de bredare tekniska trenderna har utvecklats de senaste åren, om olika tekniker för att kunna suga på koldioxid från atmosfären, och om flygets, komplicerade, klimatpåverkan. Vi får även höra om studier som Daniel gjort tillsammans med andra poddbekantingar såsom Thomas Sterner och Christian Azar, där man räknat på samhälleliga kostnader för att släppa ut koldioxid och metan. I podden nämns uttrycket integrerade bedömningsmodeller, eller IAM efter Integrated Assessment Models. Det är Daniels främsta forskningsfält och en vanlig metod inom IPCC och klimatforskning i allmänhet, där klimatmodeller kombineras med kunskap inom andra fält, bl.a. för att utvärdera påverkan från styrmedel och teknikutveckling.

The aviation industry and climate change: what are contrails?  A 2022 IPCC report found that direct GHG emissions from the transport sector accounted for 23% of global energy-related CO2 emissions in 2019. Road vehicles accounted for 70% of direct transport emissions, while 1%, 11%, and 12% of emissions came from rail, shipping, and aviation, respectively. As the mounting effects of climate change continue to be felt worldwide, the aviation industry is pioneering a method to reduce its contributions. Namely, it is focusing on efforts to curtail condensation trails – or contrails – which are fluffy, white cloud formations that sometimes appear as airplanes fly through the cold, humid, and icy parts of the atmosphere. Because they are a combination of soot, water vapor, and particulate matter (such as NOx), when aircrafts pass through these areas, they form cirrus clouds that absorb the radiation escaping from the surface, and, in turn, trap the heat. This phenomenon could account for around 35% of aviation's total contribution to climate change — that's about 1 to 2% of overall global warming! Together, these contrails roughly triple the total global warming impact of aviation compared to CO2 alone. Therefore, it is imperative that the aviation industry find solutions to reduce the production of contrails. What the industry has come up with: 3 solutions One method of reducing contrails consists of replacing traditional fuels with biofuels made from plant or animal biomass, waste, sugars and ethanol (corn). Sustainable jet fuels can produce 50%-70% fewer contrails according to research conducted by NASA and the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Jets using alternative fuels release fewer soot particles, thereby creating fewer ice crystal formations, which ultimately reduces contrail production by extension. Though biofuels may initially form larger crystals, they fall more quickly and melt in the warmer air below.The second method involves developing electric or hydrogen-powered commercial aircrafts. Hydrogen is an attractive alternative to traditional aircrafts because it can be burned without emitting CO2 and is widely available. These aircrafts would either burn liquid hydrogen directly into their engines, or use gaseous hydrogen in a fuel cell system. With fuel cells, the hydrogen creates an electrochemical reaction that produces electricity to charge the aircraft's batteries while in flight. A third method involves redirecting flights to avoid contrail-inducing zones. Between 2% and 10% of all flights create around 80% of the contrails, so researchers have started developing predictive models that would allow airlines to identify and avoid contrail regions similarly to how they plan to avoid turbulence. The cost is predicted to be $0.5/ ton of CO2 equivalent. Furthermore, only minor adjustments to the routes of a small fraction of airplane flights is required, making predictive models highly attractive and cost effective. Some ChallengesWhile biofuels have great potential, they come with their own set of challenges. First is the issue of land use and its effects on agriculture. Producing three billion gallons of sustainable aviation fuel would require between 8 and 11 million acres of corn or 35 and 50 million acres of soybeans, depending on crop yields. This could impact food production and cost. Shifting to corn or soybean based fuels has also been found to produce significant adverse emissions impacts. Lastly, it's unclear whether sustainable fuels can meet the world's growing demand for aerial transportation.   While hydrogen is attractive, it has lower energy density than fossil fuels, meaning that a higher onboard fuel storage volume is needed to cover the same distance as current fossil fuel-powered aircrafts. In addition, H2-powered large passenger planes would require significant changes to aircraft design, making it less cost effective in the short term when RD&D costs are considered (development of fuel cell technology and liquid hydrogen tanks, aircraft research, hydrogen infrastructure, fleet output, etc). Industry experts anticipate that it will take 10 to 15 years to make these important advancements. Lastly, contrail prediction models rely on a variety of input data, including flight trajectories, aircraft and engine parameters, fuel characteristics, and weather data. However, the availability and accuracy of some of these data inputs is still a challenge, as no standardization exists. Who is our guest? Matteo Mirolo is Head of Policy and Strategy, Contrails at Breakthrough Energy, an organization founded by Bill Gates to spur innovation in clean energy and address climate change. Prior to that he was sustainable aviation policy manager at Transport & Environment (clean transport advocacy group). Mirolo is also a member of the sustainability advisory panel at Air New Zealand. ResourcesIPCC Sixth Assessment Report: TransportThe contribution of global aviation to anthropogenic climate forcing for 2000 to 2018BiofuelsNASA-DLR Study Finds Sustainable Aviation Fuel Can Reduce ContrailsHydrogen could power the next-gen aircraft of tomorrowLand-Use Impacts of the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand ChallengeHow much biofuel would we need to decarbonise aviation?Hydrogen-powered aviationFurther readingAviation Contrails The missing policies on aviation emissions For a transcript of this episode, please visit https://climatebreak.org/eliminating-contrails-to-increase-aircraft-sustainability-with-matteo-mirolo/.

Send me a messageIn this episode of the Climate Confident podcast, I'm joined by Angel Hsu, associate professor at UNC Chapel Hill and founder of the Data-Driven EnviroLab. We dive deep into how AI can be used to combat climate misinformation and bring real accountability to climate pledges.Angel and her team have built two domain-specific AI tools, ChatNetZero and ChatNDC, designed to help policymakers, researchers, and business leaders navigate the chaos of climate targets, national climate plans, and net zero claims. Unlike generic chatbots, which often hallucinate facts or pull from questionable sources, these tools are trained on verified, climate-specific datasets and come with built-in safeguards against misinformation.We also unpack why generic AI tools like ChatGPT fall short in this space, how climate policy is lagging behind AI innovation, and what it'll take to close that gap. Angel shares insights from her work with the Net Zero Tracker, the IPCC, and her current NSF-backed initiative to boost AI integrity in climate mitigation.If you're in policy, sustainability, or just trying to make sense of what's greenwashing and what's not, this episode is packed with actionable insights.Listen now to learn:Why domain-specific AI beats generic models in climate accuracyHow ChatNetZero flags weak net zero targetsWhat policymakers can do today to use AI responsiblyWhy transparency in data, and in AI, is non-negotiableFor more, about Angel, and her team's work, visit https://datadrivenlab.org/Digital Disruption with Geoff Nielson Discover how technology is reshaping our lives and livelihoods.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showPodcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing supporters: Jerry Sweeney Andreas Werner Stephen Carroll Roger Arnold And remember you too can Support the Podcast - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one.ContactIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - get in touch via direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.

The RV Celtic Explorer has been officially recognised as Ireland's first Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) ocean station, marking a significant milestone in the country's contribution to global climate monitoring. The Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) is a European Research Infrastructure (RI) network that monitors the movement of carbon through the atmosphere, oceans, and terrestrial ecosystems. Established to support high-quality climate change research, ICOS provides long-term, standardised observations of greenhouse gases essential for understanding and responding to climate change. Ireland joined ICOS in 2023, proposing a national network of ten observation stations: four atmospheric, five terrestrial, and one ocean station. At its recent General Assembly meeting, ICOS officially accepted the RV Celtic Explorer as a Class 2 Ocean Station - the first of its kind for Ireland. Onboard, the General Oceanics pCO2 system semi-continuously monitors atmospheric and surface ocean carbon dioxide, enabling high-resolution, real-time data collection. Together with Clara Bog, which was also recently accepted as an associated terrestrial station, these are the first two Irish sites to complete the ICOS certification process and be formally labelled. The global ocean absorbs approximately 25% of human-generated CO2 emissions each year. Without this vital sink, the effects of climate change would be even more severe. However, the strength of this ocean sink is variable and projected to decline, which could further accelerate global warming. Additionally, the increasing absorption of CO2 is driving ocean acidification, posing a growing threat to marine ecosystems. Monitoring air-sea CO2 exchange is therefore critical to understanding and predicting these environmental changes. Ireland is uniquely positioned for this research, and the RV Celtic Explorer's operational zone in the European continental shelf and North Atlantic provides an ideal setting for routine, high-quality measurements. The 65.5-metre RV Celtic Explorer, operated by the Marine Institute, is a purpose-built (2003) ocean-going research vessel. The General Oceanics equilibrator system has been operational since 2017, continuously measuring surface seawater and atmospheric CO2. Principal Investigating Scientist Margot Cronin remarked: "These essential climate data, along with other carbon data collected on ship-based oceanography surveys, are reported to the Surface CO2 Atlas and other international data centres. The data are widely used in national, regional and global scientific assessments, including the Global Carbon Budget, IPCC reports, OSPAR Convention assessments, and the UN Sustainable Development Goal indicator 14.3 on ocean acidification. This has been a highly successful group effort, thanks in no small part to the support of the P&O Instrumentation team, the ICOS Ocean Thematic Centre, and the Marine Institute's RV Operations team."

A ideia dos créditos de carbono é poderosa: ao se colocar preços nas emissões e permitir o seu comércio, é possível oferecer incentivos para a descarbonização de vários setores da economia e para a criação de projetos que absorvam ou evitem gases de efeito estufa.Mas essa também é uma história de expectativas frustradas. Na primeira grande fase dos mercados de carbono, no início dos anos 2000, um esquema de comércio internacional foi estruturado e cresceu. Cerca de 1 bilhão de toneladas de emissões foram compensadas por meio do chamado MDL, Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo. Mas também houve uma enxurrada de projetos de baixa qualidade, uma crise financeira global e a falta de compromisso dos países para dar continuidade a esse mecanismo.Mais recentemente, com o esforço de empresas para atingir o net zero, os créditos de carbono ganharam novo fôlego, dessa vez em um mercado voluntário. Bom, o resto da história você deve se lembrar. Houve um pico em 2021 e quedas desde então, por conta de uma grave crise de credibilidade.Ok, e agora? O episódio de hoje tenta responder a essa pergunta. Meu convidado é um pioneiro em mercados de carbono. Pedro Moura Costa esteve envolvido nos primeiros projetos de créditos de carbono do mundo e fundou a EcoSecurities, empresa que abriu capital na Bolsa de Londres e liderou o setor de compensações em sua primeira fase (sob o Protocolo de Kyoto). Pedro também fundou a ONG BVRio, Bolsa Verde do Rio de Janeiro e, como autor principal do IPCC – o Painel Intergovernamental sobre Mudanças Climáticas da ONU – foi um dos pesquisadores reconhecidos pelo Prêmio Nobel da Paz de 2007, concedido ao IPCC como um todo. Hoje, Pedro é membro do conselho consultivo da Oxford Climate Policy e da Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity Initiative (VCMI) – ou seja, continua absolutamente envolvido na evolução dos mercados de carbono.Eu já vou adiantar aqui a parte mais importante dessa conversa: Pedro não vê futuro para o mercado voluntário. Pelo contrário, ele acredita numa substituição por outro sistema, de compliance. Support the showO Economia do Futuro é publicado quinzenalmente às quintas.

Jason Box accepted the invitation to come Into The Heat with Nick Breeze and here he gives insights into what he saw. At the outset, Jason thought the efforts to survive in these conditions were ‘fighting gravity'. After 2 days, that view changed. Jason also offers great insights into the potential for using data rich landscapes to create digital twins that can help produce greater quality products resilience in anticipating future climate.Download the FREE ebook: https://sustentabilidade.vinhosdoalentejo.pt/uploads/ebook/into-the-heat.pdfProfessor Jason Box is an American glaciologist renowned for his pioneering research on the Greenland ice sheet, having participated in over 30 expeditions since 1994 and leading projects such as the Dark Snow Project and the Extreme Ice Survey to study ice-climate interactions and glacier dynamics.

El deshielo se acelera advierte la Organización Meteorológica mundial en este primer Día Mundial de los Glaciares, organizado este 21 de marzo para sensibilizar a la opinión pública sobre estos ecosistemas esenciales para los recursos hídricos.  En la región andina, los glaciares han perdido cerca del 50% de su superficie desde los años 80. El glaciar de Humbolt en Venezuela, el Carihuairazo en Ecuador o el Chalcaltaya en Bolivia son algunos de los glaciares andinos que se extinguieron bajo el efecto del cambio climático causado por nuestras emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Según el Grupo Intergubernamental de Expertos sobre el Cambio Climático (IPCC), el calentamiento global ha provocado la desaparición de entre un 30% y un 50% de la superficie de los glaciares andinos desde la década de los 1980, una de las pérdidas más importantes a escala mundial. Y “entre 2022 y 2024, asistimos a la mayor pérdida de glaciares jamás registrada en tres años”, alertó Celeste Saulo, secretaria de la Organización Meteorológica Mundial (OMM) en el marco del primer Día Mundial de los Glaciares.Esta pérdida de masa glaciar a escala global amenaza el suministro de agua de cientos de millones de personas, dado que los glaciares cumplen un papel de reservas de agua. La cordillera de los Andes aporta por ejemplo la mitad del caudal del río Amazonas.Para la ONU, la única respuesta posible para frenar esta tendencia es combatir el calentamiento global reduciendo drásticamente las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero.Alteración de los recursos hídricos en los AndesPara las poblaciones que viven en ciudades andinas de alta montaña, la dependencia a estos glaciares es aún mayor. Y los efectos del deshielo ya se hace sentir. Varios glaciólogos entrevistados por RFI concuerdan que, en Perú, el volumen de los glaciares en Perú ha retrocedido alrededor de un 40% que en los últimos 30 o 40 años“La contribución glaciar a los cauces de los ríos muchas veces es muy alta en los Andes [de Perú]. En algunas cuencas ya hay menos agua. Es lo que llamamos “el pico de agua”, o sea un punto de inflexión a partir del cual, a largo plazo, conforme el glaciar se va reduciendo, ya tenemos cada vez menos agua disponible, al menos en la época seca”, observa el glaciólogo de origen alemán Fabian Drenkhan, de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú.En la región andina, esta agua es crucial para el cultivo de alimentos básicos como la papa, el maíz y la quinoa.Y las previsiones para finales del siglo no son nada buenas: “al menos la mitad de todos los glaciares de Perú desaparecerán si contamos con un escenario de cambio climático optimista, con un mínimo calentamiento, es decir, si los acuerdos de París son implementados por todos los países y tenemos un incremento de temperatura de 1.5 grados Celsius máximo hacia el año 2100”, indica Randy Muñoz Asmat, geógrafo de la Universidad de Zurich.Riesgo de inundacionesEn paralelo, los volúmenes de algunas lagunas glaciares se expanden peligrosamente conforme se van derritiendo los glaciares río arriba. El reciente caso de la demanda judicial de Saúl Luciano Lliuya contra el gigante energético alemán RWE por las consecuencias del deshielo en Huaraz, es emblemáticode los riesgos de inundaciones. La laguna Palcacocha ha crecido 34 veces y amenaza a la ciudad de Huaraz.‘Muchas lagunas en el Perú que están creciendo en algunos casos constituyen un gran riesgo”, confirma el investigador Fabian Drenkhan. “Al crecer, la laguna puede llegar a niveles donde se queda cada vez menos estable. Podemos tener algunos eventos como un desprendimiento de un bloque de hielo o de una roca de la ladera que cae en la laguna y genera una ola de presión. Se puede incluso romper su dique el agua va hacia abajo. La laguna Palcacocha ha sido testigo de un de estos eventos que llamamos ‘GLOF', (Glacial Lake Outburst Flood en inglés), un aluvión en 1941, y ahí fallecieron casi 2000 personas en Huaraz”.Obras de adaptaciónPara limitar los efectos del deshielo, surgen varias técnicas de adaptación, muchas de ellas paliativas.Inspirándose en una técnica usada puntualmente en estaciones de esquí de países como Suiza, Italia o Francia el gobierno de Venezuela anunció en marzo de 2024 el despliegue con helicópteros de rollos de plástico de polipropileno sobre la superficie helada para protegerla de la radiación solar. Una técnica que suscita escepticismo entre ambientalistas y glaciólogos debido a los riesgos de contaminación plástica.Al este de La Paz en Bolivia, el cambio climático redujo la disponibilidad de agua para la comunidad de Cebollullo que depende del agua del glaciar Illimani para regar sus cultivos. Para remediar esta situación, los agricultores han recurrido a un antiguo sistema de riego que utiliza surcos en zigzag para ralentizar el flujo de agua y reducir la erosión.En la región de Huaraz en Perú, se ha instalado un sistema de drenaje del agua para reducir el volumen de la laguna Palcacocha.Por otra parte, en las regiones donde escasea el agua, el suministro de los embalses de las hidroeléctricas está en peligro. “En este caso la solución técnica que muchas empresas hidroeléctricas prefieren es construir más y más y más reservorios. Pero a nivel social y a nivel ambiental esos grandes reservorios muchas veces son muy cuestionables también”, advierte Fabian Drenkhan, que observa conflictos locales por el uso de los derechos de agua.Además, las obras de adaptación tienen sus límites: en la Cordillera blanca de Perú, siete de las nueve cuencas superaron el límite de las posibilidades de adaptación.

Današnja Frekvenca X je v znamenju pomladi. V tem delu leta je na severni polobli vse bolj očitno, da pomlad iz leta v leto prehiteva, to pa vpliva na hitrejše cvetenje rastlin in sproža neusklajenost razvojnih ciklov živali. Naša osrednja gostja bo Američanka Camille Parmesan, ki je kot ena prvih z raziskavami selitev metuljev v 90. letih prejšnjega stoletja empirično dokazala delovanje podnebnih sprememb na naravo. Maja Ratej ob njej gosti še vrsto slovenskih strokovnjakov, ki prehitevanje pomladi spremljajo v sadovnjakih, med opraševalci in pticami.

There is no energy transition - only ongoing and symbiotic energy addition. Historian Jean-Baptiste Fressoz, author of More and More and More: An All-Consuming History of Energy, joins us. Highlights include: How the symbiotic relationships between wood, coal, and oil have led to increased use of all of them; Why decoupling economic growth from energy and materials use is a delusional myth; How the energy transition narrative evolved and why it's an "intellectual scandal" used to delay climate action through faith in techno-driven growth; How the IPCC's focus on economic growth drives the energy transition narrative, downplays degrowth and sufficiency, and relies on unproven techno-fixes, such as Carbon Capture Storage (CCS); How safety norms were invented to secure industrial capital, and how criticisms and objections around technological risks were silenced or overcome to establish technological modernity. See episode website for show notes, links, and transcript:  https://www.populationbalance.org/podcast/jean-baptiste-fressoz   OVERSHOOT | Shrink Toward Abundance OVERSHOOT tackles today's interlocked social and ecological crises driven by humanity's excessive population and consumption. The podcast explores needed narrative, behavioral, and system shifts for recreating human life in balance with all life on Earth. With expert guests from wide-ranging disciplines, we examine the forces underlying overshoot: from patriarchal pronatalism that is fueling overpopulation, to growth-biased economic systems that lead to consumerism and social injustice, to the dominant worldview of human supremacy that subjugates animals and nature. Our vision of shrinking toward abundance inspires us to seek pathways of transformation that go beyond technological fixes toward a new humanity that honors our interconnectedness with all beings.  Hosted by Nandita Bajaj and Alan Ware.

"Il n'y aura pas de décarbonation de l'économie sans sobriété"Yamina Saheb est docteure en ingénierie énergétique. On lui doit notamment l'intégration du concept de sobriété et sa définition dans le dernier rapport du GIEC dont elle est co-autrice. Depuis, elle a lancé le Sufficiency Lab pour développer les recherches sur les politiques de sobriété et l'intégration de ce principe dans les modèles qui viendront nourrir les prochains rapports du GIEC et les travaux des institutions Européennes.Qu'est-ce que la sobriété ? En quoi cela diffère de l'efficacité ? Pourquoi est-ce que les scénarios d'atténuation n'intègrent pas ce principe ? Qu'est-ce que cela implique sur les politiques mises en œuvre ?C'est tout l'objet de ce nouvel entretien d'écologie politique du podcast Ozé.

What is one thing we could all do tomorrow? Switch to a planet-based diet.Sailesh Rao, Executive Director of Climate Healers, joins me to explain how emissions from animal agriculture are not being counted properly in the IPCC report, claiming that animal agriculture is, when analysed properly, responsible for 87% of climate change. Sailesh offers his hypothesis as to why animal agriculture isn't taking as much heat as the fossil fuel industry, and of course I challenge his position which is contrary to most climate science which points to energy as the leading cause of climate change. We go on to discuss strategies of non-violence, the problem of human supremacy, and how our relationship towards meat impacts our capacity to address the roots of the climate crisis: colonisation and domination.Planet: Critical is 100% independent and community-powered.
