Latest insights from a consortium of climate science organizations via report for UN. Top on the list: 1/ “Overshooting 1.5C is fast becoming inevitable.” 2/ “A rapid and managed fossil fuel phase-out is required to stay within the Paris Agreement target range.” 3/ “Robust policies are critical to attain the scale needed for effective carbon dioxide removal (CDR).” 4/ “Over-reliance on natural carbon sinks is a risky strategy: their future contribution is uncertain.” https://lnkd.in/gW_H92AY

In the context of the controversial statements by the #COP28 president regarding the science supporting the phase-out of fossil fuels, swift reaction on behalf of the global science community by Future Earth and World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) drew on work, including contribution from IRDR's Mark Pelling, in '10 New Insights in Climate Science 2023/24' published by Global Sustainability.

The attempted cures for climate change are generally worse than the disease—especially for the poor. In this groundbreaking volume, experts in all the fields related to climate change explain for laymen what we know about climate change and evaluate from a Christian perspective the proposed responses. Demands to transform the global energy infrastructure to depend heavily on wind, solar, and other renewables are harmful to people in America and the world–especially to the poor. Meanwhile, continued large-scale use of traditional energy sources like nuclear, hydro, and fossil fuels would reduce poverty while doing less harm to the environment. Climate and Energy Policy combines outstanding climate science, physics, economics, environmental science, political science, ethics, and theology to present a well-reasoned understanding of human-induced climate change and how to respond to it. David Legates, Ph.D. is professor of climatology in the Department of Geography at the University of Delaware and an adjunct professor at the university’s Physical Ocean Science and Engineering Program and in the Department of Applied Economics. He has been Research Scientist at the Southern Regional Climate Center, Chief Research Scientist at the Center for Computational Geosciences, and Visiting Research Scientist at the National Climate Data Center. https://lnkd.in/de8vvDsU

💬 "The inevitability of surpassing the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C global warming target—a biophysical limit—is looming. #COP28 should underscore the urgency for a rapid and managed fossil fuel phaseout." 💡 Every year, Future Earth, the @Earth League, and the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) convene leading global scholars to review the most critical findings in climate research. Through a rigorous scientific process, these findings are summarized into 🔟 insights, offering valuable guidance for policymakers and society.

🌦️ Climate Forum Meeting this week 🌦️   Last month, we circulated a survey to initiate a discussion on MetSoc’s role in the climate science space, inspired by the Deep South National Science Challenge meeting. Your feedback is crucial as we navigate our involvement in policy support and scientific forums.   Clearly the change in the science sector means there is a lot of discussion happening at present. MetSoc will continue to be asked to participate, so as a group we need to decide if it want to become involved, can resource society involvement and if so, how MetSoc would decide what positions to advance or support.   Overall, respondents of the survey thought that MetSoc could host a forum and that the activity is within scope.   We would now like to call a general meeting to for members to discuss this further, especially:   1. Discussing Survey Results: Should we establish a climate forum? Discuss logistics and governance. 2. Save Our Science Coalition: Should MetSoc join this campaign? 3. WCRP Forum: What views should MetSoc communicate to decision-makers at the WRCP forum?   📅 Meeting Details: -Date: Thursday, 13 June -Time: 12:00 - 13:00 -Please register your attendance on the events page (or at the top of the latest email). -[Meeting Link will be circulated on Wednesday, 12 June]   Your participation is vital as we shape MetSoc’s future involvement in climate science. Register now and join the conversation!   For more information check your emails from the Met Society of NZ.   https://lnkd.in/g83jKJ_n https://lnkd.in/gDVm6JbR

Climate Science Translated - flippant but to the point. The film is part of an ongoing project to help the climate science cut through to the public by https://lnkd.in/euBARRfU or @ClimateSciBreak

Increase your knowledge about the largest challenge of our time this autumn: the climate crisis! 🌏 This course aims to deepen your knowledge of the climate crisis as a societal problem. It will introduce you to several perspectives and interdisciplinary research on climate change and address questions concerning climate science's emergence. It will further discuss and analyse contemporary climate discourse and central goal conflicts. Read more about the course and apply by 15 April. ⤵ #KTH KTH Royal Institute of Technology #climateresearch #climatecrisis

A large-scale international study (63 countries) in which I took part, examined 11 behavioral interventions to increase public awarness of climate change, enhance support for climate change mitigating policies, and take action. Our results have now been published in Science Advance “Addressing climate change with behavioral science: A global intervention tournament in 63 countrie” https://lnkd.in/eEHUXZVP
