Curious about climate change impacts to your local area? Its great to see the Global and National work, but what about at the State, or perhaps County level? What should I, as a local citizen or policy maker, be concerned about? The University of Washington Climate Impacts Group has put together a portal of consolidated climate information for public access. Great for researchers, planners, government officials, and citizens to better understand the current and future climate risk. (https://lnkd.in/guTZDts3) On the portal, I found that the WA state climatologist recently hosted this webinar that did a great job discussing diverse impacts across the state, where there is uncertainty, and where more data/research is needed. Easy to digest graphics and discussion points. Useful for climate enthusiasts and the general public. #sciencecommunication #climatechange https://lnkd.in/g-BptqJD

The Climate Dictionary: very useful.

Today I have finished reading Backstage Climate: The Science and Politics Behind Climate Change by Rajan Mehta, and it’s a fantastic book. It explains the science of climate change in a way that’s easy to understand, covering why it’s happening and the dangers if we don’t act. The book also dives into the politics of climate change, showing why it’s often hard for countries to agree on solutions. Rajan makes it clear that we need both science and strong political action to fight climate change. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the full story of the fight for our planet’s future. #ClimateChange #Sustainability #ClimateAction #BackstageClimate Rajan Mehta

Correct Answer: C) "The author, along with her collaborators, are working on a new book about climate change." Explanation: The correct answer is C. The subject "author, along with her collaborators" is singular, so it requires the singular verb "is" instead of the plural verb "are." Therefore, the corrected sentence is: "The author, along with her collaborators, is working on a new book about climate change."

A must read This book presents a dynamic picture of global climate policy trends over the past three decades and fills a critical gap in climate research by documenting successful implementation of climate policies. Download for free: wrld.bg/93Ku50QGz47

A conceptual framework for responding to cross-border climate change impacts Key messages: ✔️The authors introduce a new typology for cross-border climate impacts and classify actors who manage them. ✔️This research propose a conceptual framework for identifying policy responses and governance approaches to address cross-border climate impacts. ✔️A logical process is presented for pairing impact types and response types and assessing response appropriateness. ✔️Cross-border climate impacts are best managed through response diversity and collaborative governance. https://lnkd.in/d9CYMnPK

Really helpful overview of current state of scenario planning. Glad to see the reference to IAMs and how they can model present and future energy uses and demand. In other words, businesses, investors and others concerned about transition risk should be using scenario planning just as much as those concerned about physical climate risk. Also, regulators working to ensure that climate risk assessments are reliable and comparable need to think about how scenario planning will inform these assessments. This is playing out not just in the countries following the IFRS standards, as noted here, but also in California as it implements the recently enacted SB 261.

Hello LinkedIn community! Excited to share a brief yet informative article on the current trends of climate change impacts. As a Climate Change and Environment Management master's student, I delved into studying the carbon cycle, implications of climate change, and the pivotal role of polar regions in mitigating its impact. Stay tuned for insightful knowledge sharing! #ClimateChange #Actonclimate #CarbonCycle #PolarRegions #KnowledgeSharing

Recently started reading Backstage Climate by Rajan Mehta and it is a captivating and informative exploration of climate change. The book does an exceptional job of breaking down complex climate science and policies that impact it into easily digestible information. I am pleasantly surprised by how Rajan has managed to transform a potentially dry subject into an engaging and interesting read. A must-read for anyone looking to delve deeper into this critical issue. #climatechange #whattoread #BackstageClimate
