SUMMARY:EIEE Webinar-Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The heat is on: Heat stress\, productivity and adaptation among firms\nThursday\, November 27th\, at 3:00 pm an hybrid EIEE Seminar-Webinar will be held by Hélia Costa. \nHélia will present the paper: “The heat is on: Heat stress\, productivity and adaptation among firms” (co-authored with Guido Franco\, Filiz Unsal\, and Mudigonda Sarath). \nAbstract: This paper examines the impact of heat stress on firm-level labour productivity across 23 advanced economies from 2000 to 2021. Combining high-resolution weather data with balance sheet information\, we find that both an increase in the number of high-temperature days and the occurrence of heatwaves lead to reduced labour productivity. This effect is substantial\, more pronounced in smaller and less productive firms\, and is exacerbated by longer heatwaves\, high humidity\, and low wind speeds. We find evidence of partial adaptation: firms in warmer climates and those with prior heatwave exposure suffer smaller losses from subsequent temperature extremes. However\, the scope of current adaptation remains limited: higher temperatures relative to an already warm average result in more significant productivity losses\, and there is no evidence of adaptation to severe extreme temperatures. These results underscore the relevance of both gradual and acute climate impacts for economic performance and underscore the need for targeted adaptation policies to mitigate the long-term growth impacts of rising temperatures. \nRegister in advance: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_O-Jco0gfTo2q1_PO1ekpWQ#/registration

SUMMARY:PRISMA Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Integrating societal aspects in electricity sector modeling\n\nSpeakers: \n\nVivien Fisch-Romito\, University of Lausanne\nXin Wen\, University of Geneva\n\nSpeakers \n\nEvelina Trutnevyte\, University of Geneva\n\nAbstract: \nIntegrated assessment and energy system models are challenged to account for societal transformation dynamics\, but empirical evidence is lacking on which factors to incorporate\, how and to what extent this would improve the relevance of modelled pathways. Here\, we include six societal factors related to infrastructure dynamics\, actors and decision-making\, and social and institutional context into an open-source simulation model of the national power system transition. We apply this model in 31 European countries and\, using hindcasting (1990–2019)\, quantify which societal factors improved the modelled pathways. We then demonstrate how this hindcasting could be used to inform forward-looking national electricity system transition modeling (1990–2050) to assess the socio-technical feasibility of achieving emission goals. This work paves the way to a more systematic and objective selection of societal factors to be included in energy transition modeling. \nThe webinar will conclude with a 15-minute question and answer (Q&A) session. \nRegistration required: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_iriEQEnoQEOTxQ0qHKHJnQ \n  \nThis project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 101081604 – PRISMA.

SUMMARY:EDITS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Integrating Demand-side Solutions for Accelerated Decarbonization of Power Supply System: Insights from Bangladesh and Thailand\n  \nSpeaker: Firuz Ahamed Nahid\, Post Doctoral Researcher\, Asian Institute of Technology\, Thailand \n  \nModerator: Jubair Sieed\, Researcher\, Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth\, Japan \n  \nAbstract: \nElectricity generation sector in Bangladesh and Thailand remain predominantly fossil fuel powered (62.6% and 67%\, respectively). Each country has set long-term climate goals (Thailand: carbon neutrality by 2050 and net-zero by 2065; Bangladesh: 41% renewables by 2041). This study constructs nationally tailored (pledged and higher ambition action) least-cost pathways for 2030 to 2050 using PyPSA-BD/TH-IDS (Integrated Demand and Supply) developed for the purpose\, coupling high-resolution spatial (30×30 km) resource availability with hourly system operation and validation against 2019 officially published data. Scenarios include (eight for Bangladesh and ten for Thailand) end-use energy efficiency (EE\, up to 50%)\, demand-side flexibility (DSF\, up to 10% load shifting) and supply-side expansion of renewable shares that span low (≤40%)\, moderate (40–70%)\, and high (>70%) scales of penetration. Results show that demand side solution integrated planning reduces supply system size by avoiding overbuild of renewable expansion\, improves affordability\, and lowers resource mobilization needs including financial resources and land footprint while reducing near-term CO₂ emissions relative to supply-only pathways. By 2050\, Bangladesh’s 100% clean power case with integrated end-use efficiency and demand- side flexibility requires 172.55 GW\, ~58% less than the capacity requirement in the supply-only pathway\, with an affordable generation cost of 0.049 €/kWh\, while the current cost is ~0.80 €/kWh. The land footprint is about 1\,960 km² (~1.32% of total land area of the country). In supply-only pathways they are 3\,695 km² (~2.49% of total land area of the country). The financial resource mobilization need is €144 billion over a period of 25 years(~1.78 times lower) and employment potential is ~1.92 times higher (7.34 million) compared to the supply-side only pathway. Similarly\, for Thailand\, 100% clean electricity by 2050 requires 297.11 GW of total installed capacity\, which is ~56% of the supply-only pathway\, with 0.065 €/kWh generation cost indicates affordability in integrated demand and supply-side pathway\, while the current generation cost is ~0.089 €/kWh . The integrated end-use EE and DSF combined with supply- side expansion reduces land footprint by ~44% (3153 km 2 which is 0.61% of total land area) compared with the supply-side only pathway\, while the resource mobilization need is ~48% lower (€120.20 billion) and job creation potential is ~1.56 times higher (9.43 million). Finally\, the open-source\, nationally grounded framework of the model supports local capacity development through open collaboration and provides actionable guidance for policy making indeveloping economies and also to understand nuances of transition challenges. \nRegister in advance: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_kLmDT208Th6WX13HgiHi7A

SUMMARY:NEWPATHWAYS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Quantifying the shift of public export finance from fossil fuels to renewable energy\nTuesday\, 4th November at 15:00 pm. \nBy providing guarantees and direct lending\, public export credit agencies (ECAs) de-risk and thus enable energy projects worldwide. Despite their importance for global greenhouse gas emission pathways\, a systematic assessment of ECAs’ role and financing patterns in the low-carbon energy transition is still needed. Using commercial transaction data\, here we analyze 921 energy deals backed by ECAs from 31 OECD and non-OECD countries (excluding Canada) between 2013 and 2023. We find that while the share of renewables in global ECA energy commitments rose substantially between 2013 and 2023\, ECAs remain heavily involved in the fossil fuel sector\, with support varying substantially across technologies\, value chain stages\, and countries. Portfolio ‘greening’ is primarily driven by members of the E3F climate club\, impacting deal financing structures and shifting finance flows towards high-income countries. Our results call for reconsidering ECA mandates and strengthening international climate-related cooperation in export finance. \nSpeaker: Paul Waidelich\, Researcher at ETH Zurich’s Energy and Technology Policy Group. \nDr. Paul Waidelich is a postdoc at ETH Zurich’s Energy and Technology Policy Group\, where he completed his PhD in 2024.

SUMMARY:EIEE Webinar-Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The Energy Impacts of Green Remodeling: Evidence from the Building Sector\nTuesday\, November 4th at 12:00 pm an hybrid EIEE Seminar-Webinar will be held by Yeong Jae Kim. \nYeong Jae will present “The Energy Impacts of Green Remodeling: Evidence from the Building Sector”. \nAbstract: To achieve the building sector’s mid- to long-term greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets and move toward a carbon-neutral society\, the key is to improve the efficiency of existing\, aging buildings and transition them to low-carbon use. We examine the impact of the Green Remodeling Program on energy consumption rates of public buildings in South Korea using a staggered difference-in-difference approach. We see a decline in both electricity and gas consumption for public buildings that underwent green remodeling. However\, the majority of the effect on energy consumption comes later in the years for building. Overall\, green remodeled buildings\, although varying in size\, have lower energy consumption rates compared to buildings that have not participated in the program. \n\nRegister in advance: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_-H5eglaoRd6MExHOSDQ6Mg#/registration

SUMMARY:EIEE Webinar-Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Refrigeration\, Diets and Human Health: Evidence from Ghana\nMonday\, November 3rd at 12:00 pm an hybrid EIEE Seminar-Webinar will be held by Francois Cohen. \nFrancois will present the working paper: “Refrigeration\, Diets and Human Health: Evidence from Ghana” (Enoch Ntsiful and Francois Cohen\, Chair of Energy Sustainability\, Institute of Economics of Barcelona\, University of Barcelona). \nAbstract: Little is known about household-level interventions to strengthen resilience to food insecurity. Rapid electrification could enable refrigeration and transform how food is stored\, prepared\, and consumed. We provide the first causal evidence on how access to refrigeration affects food insecurity and dietary quality in a low-income country. Our identification exploits appliance breakdowns\, comparing households with functioning and broken refrigerators purchased at the same time and similar prices. Losing access to refrigeration increases food insecurity by one third and reduces consumption of animal-sourced foods\, lowering intake of vitamin B12. Refrigeration is an overlooked lever to improve diets and reduce micronutrient deficiencies. \nRegistration required: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_EIXiXpEhTKO7F8Brce-XRw

SUMMARY:PRISMA Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Transport Transformation: Combining Lifestyle Changes with Electrification Yields Major Climate and Health Benefits\nSpeaker: \n\nJarusch Müßel \, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK)\, Germany\n\nModerator: \n\nJohannes Emmerling\, CMCC Foundation – Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change\, Italy\n\nAbstract: \nWhile electrification is essential for long-term climate goals\, it alone cannot unlock the full potential of a sustainable transport future. This webinar presents findings from a new study led by researchers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK)\, which compares three key decarbonization strategies—lifestyle change\, electrification\, and efficiency improvements—using the integrated REMIND-EdgeTransport model. \nThe study shows that while electrification delivers the largest CO₂ reductions by 2050\, lifestyle changes such as shifting to shared\, active\, and public transport modes offer significant near-term climate benefits and major societal co-benefits. These include improved public health\, reduced congestion\, fewer accidents\, and cleaner air—amounting to potential net benefits of €70 billion annually in the EU by 2050. \nJoin this webinar to explore how combining electrification with behavioral shifts can create a more livable\, healthy\, and climate-resilient future\, and why integrated policy approaches are critical to achieving this vision. \nThe webinar will conclude with a 15-minute question and answer (Q&A) session. \n\nJ.

SUMMARY:AdJUST Seminar-Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Yann Robiou Du Pont\, Utrecht University\n\nTitle: How are scientific ambition and fairness assessment of climate targets used for decision making\, negotiations and litigation?\n\nAbstract: The Paris Agreement requires countries to pledge fair and ambitious climate pledges. The scientific literature has long offered quantifications of what are fair emissions targets for countries\, and is increasingly suggesting Paris aligned objectives for companies and local governments.This literature\, originally derived to inform voluntary pledges\, is increasingly used by courts of law to assess their sufficiency under the Paris goals and Human Rights\, as under the Paris Agreement. This novel use of the literature\, and the nearly negative global carbon budget calls for improvement of this literature\, linking considerations of natural science\, ethics\, economics and law. This talk will present how this literature is used in practice and discuss outlooks for its role in the coming years.\n\nRegister here

SUMMARY:EIEE Webinar-Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Some Don’t Like it Hot: Bank Depositors and NGO Campaigns Against Brown Banks\nThursday\, 18th September at 12:00 pm an hybrid EIEE Seminar-Webinar will be held by Clément Mazet-Sonilhac. \nThe webinar will present research on whether retail depositors respond to information that their bank contributes to climate change. Using novel data on NGO campaigns targeting financial institutions involved in fossil fuel financing\, an index of French banks’ “brown” reputation is constructed. Combining this measure with granular data on household deposits from 2010 to 2020 shows that negative environmental publicity reduces deposit volumes. This effect intensifies after a 2017 regulatory reform that removed transaction costs for switching bank accounts\, suggesting that households act on environmental preferences when frictions are low. A one-standard-deviation increase in brown reputation leads to a 2% decline in sight deposits post-reform\, with larger effects in counties with stronger green political preferences. \nWatch the recording: https://youtu.be/NvUWVizPjC0

SUMMARY:PRISMA Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Title: \nHow Economic Incentives and Behavioural Drivers Shape Consumers’ Engagement in Repairing Energy-Using Consumer Goods and their Environmental Impacts \n  \nSpeakers: \n\nDarius Corbier\, CMCC Foundation – Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change\, Italy\nHazel Pettifor\, Oxford Center for the Environment\, Environmental Change Institute\, Oxford University\, Oxford\, United Kingdom\n\n  \nAbstract: \nUnder the Sound Material-Cycle Society\, Japan’s Reduce-Reuse-Recycle framework reduced municipal waste. Since 2010 progress has slowed while primary resource use remains high. In this seminar we assess the environmental impacts of consumer-orientated ‘R’ strategies in Japan. We explore how economic incentives and lifestyle changes influence consumers’ adoption of repairing energy-using goods\, comparing across different income groups. We apply a dynamic equilibrium model combining material flow analysis with a lifestyle model to two alternative policy scenarios (1) a repair bonus funded by EPR fees and (2) EPR fees as a standalone policy with redistribution. Each scenario is considered under low and high repair barriers and heterogenous repair behaviour drivers. When we equip high income groups with strong low-carbon cognitions we find that with low barriers\, reduced repair costs could double repair rates at the expense of sharing\, resulting in a 12 Mt/year decrease in waste by 2050. High barriers to repair reduce these gains by over two-thirds. Low-income groups\, who need to save money\, tend to respond more to price signals. The use of less-efficient repaired goods reduces the positive impact of lower CO 2 emissions associated with the manufacturing and incineration sectors\, implying a trade-off between circular economy and climate mitigation goals. Increasing replacement costs through higher EPR fees encourages sharing and refuse more than repair behaviors\, yielding smaller waste reductions but lower CO 2 emissions. Our findings highlight the importance of aligning price signals with measures that reduce barriers\, address potential trade-offs and implement targeted awareness campaigns to achieve a sustainable circular economy. \nRegistration required. \n  \nThis project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation\nprogramme under grant agreement No. 101081604 – PRISMA.

DESCRIPTION:An AI-based Digital Twin for Wildfire: Predicting Wildfire Progression and Behavior\, and Its Downstream Impacts on Air Quality\nSpeaker: Mohammad Pourhomayoun\, Professor at California State University \nModerator: Soheil Shayegh\, CMCC \nAbstract: \nWildfires around the world have become increasingly frequent and severe\, posing significant threats to the environment\, air quality\, and human health. The smoke generated by wildfires contributes to hazardous air quality\, exposing people to harmful pollutants that can exacerbate respiratory conditions and lead to long-term health issues. Beyond human impacts\, wildfires have devastating effects on ecosystems\, causing habitat destruction\, loss of biodiversity\, and releasing vast amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere\, further exacerbating climate change. Despite notable progress in wildfire mitigation technologies in recent years\, understanding and predicting wildfire behavior and evolution and real-time adverse effects (such as impacts on air quality) remains highly challenging and complex.  \nThis research presents an AI-based Digital Twin for Wildfire\, delivering an advanced and integrated system designed to enhance the accuracy\, efficiency\, and real-time responsiveness of wildfire forecasting and management. This wildfire digital twin utilizes a comprehensive set of technologies\, including AI-based systems with real-time\, high-resolution predictive models to predict wildfire evolution and progression in the hours-to-days ahead as well as its downstream impact on air quality. This system will significantly support firefighters\, emergency responders\, and various stakeholders in optimizing resource allocation\, setting priorities\, and executing targeted responses to wildfires. \n  \nRegister in advance

SUMMARY:EIEE Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Climate Change Policies: Assessing Quality of Life\nSpeaker: Steve Kimbrough\, University of Pennsylvania\n\n\nAbstract: This talk discusses\, indeed advocates\, assessment of climate change policies with regard to their implications for well-being and quality of life. It is important to do so\, if for no other reason than to build political coalitions that can support implementation and maintenance of such policies. \nThe first part of the talk focuses on relevant work from the Climate Decisions Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania.The Lab has developed nine quality of life evaluation criteria that are potentially pertinent to climate and sustainability policies. After discussing briefly the criteria and the underlying\nphilosophy of well-being (objective list)\, tying it to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals\, the talk describes two exercises in assessing scores for policies on the nine criteria\, what the resulting rankings were\, and how they were produced. The second part of the talk envisions an embedding context for this work\, in which analysts\, working independently but in effect collaboratively\, arrive at prima facie credible multicriteria decision making (MCDM) models for comparing climate policies on quality of life. The aim here is not to decide for the public—an absurd goal—but to afford public deliberation by nudging it to focus in a productive manner and to provide tools useful for thoughtful deliberation.\n\n\n\nRegister in advance.

SUMMARY:EIEE Webinar-Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Climate change attitudes across the political spectrum: the role of local temperatures and global political events\nThursday\, 26th June at 12:00 pm an hybrid EIEE Seminar-Webinar will be held by Catarina Midões. \nClimate change has taken hold of weather patterns and partly of policy making discussions. I investigate to what extent  these two factors have influenced attitudes towards climate change in Europe. I merge responses to Waves 8 and 10 of the European Social Survey (ESS) with daily gridded temperature data\, and I explore two COP meetings which took place during the ESS interviews. Not all COP meetings have increased concern about climate change; however\, COP26 did so\, for centrist and particularly for right-wing individuals. Regarding weather patterns\, I find that climate anomalies drive increased concern along the political spectrum. Nonetheless\, single low (high) temperature events (incorrectly) drive concern down (up) among less-educated individuals in the center and on the right. Although more concerned\, right-wing individuals have remained equally skeptical of the effectiveness of climate policies\, implying that barriers to policy support might be thick. \nOnline participation: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/j/83260377297?pwd=mQ5nKhT9Ta78QEHe5k6dLaIz1ovLQE.

SUMMARY:ADJUST Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Employment and earnings losses in a green transition: Lessons from the oil industry \nPresenter: Elisabeth Isaksen\, Senior Research Fellow\, The Frisch Center\nModerator: Elena Verdolini\, CMCC \nAbstract: This paper investigates the employment and earnings impacts of a green transition\, leveraging the 2014 oil price shock as a natural experiment to examine labor market consequences from a contraction of Norway’s fossil fuel industry. Using matched employer-employee data and a difference-in-differences design\, we find that oil workers experienced notable declines in both annual earnings and employment in the years following the shock\, with the largest earnings losses among senior\, highly educated\, and male workers. An event study focusing on displaced oil workers reveals substantially larger declines in earnings and employment relative to comparable non-oil workers. Notably\, earnings losses are highest among those with the lowest educational attainment\, suggesting that the distributional impacts of the oil price shock itself differ from those of oil job displacement. \nAlthough relatively few oil workers transitioned into green jobs\, those who did represented a comparable share of the destination workforce as those moving into brown (non-oil) sectors. Workers entering green sectors faced larger earnings losses than those moving into brown jobs\, but smaller losses than those shifting into other jobs. Analyzing earnings differentials\, we find that lower establishment wage premiums\, rather than skill distance or worker sorting\, primarily drive these disparities.  Our findings highlight the significant transitional costs for fossil fuel workers and suggest that\, while targeted policies aimed at skill development alone may not fully restore prior earnings levels\, expanding opportunities in green sectors could help offset earnings losses and support labor market adjustment during the green transition. \n  \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:EDITS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Demand-side policies for sufficiency: a multi-solving strategy\nSpeakers:  \n\nFrauke Wiese\, Europa-Universität Flensburg\nJohannes Thema\, Wuppertal Institute\nCarina Zell-Ziegler\, Oeko-Institut\n\nAbstract: An integrated sufficiency strategy for energy and climate policy would significantly reduce the challenges on the way to climate neutrality. Reducing final energy demand through demand-side measures eases the pressure on expansion rates of renewables and grid\, resources and land. As sufficiency is a strategy to reduce consumption and production levels through changes in social practices to stay within ecological limits and provide a social foundation for all\, it requires appropriate policy frameworks. At present\, there are many barriers to sufficiency-oriented development. Examples include subsidies for new housing\, privileges for motorised individual mobility\, and incentives for the production of non-repairable products. In this webinar\, we will provide an overview of targets\, strategies and indicators per sector for sufficiency-oriented development\, as well as examples of concrete policy measures\, including practical examples. \n  \nThe Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS) project is an initiative coordinated by the Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth (RITE) and International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA)\, and funded by Ministry of Economy\, Trade\, and Industry (METI)\, Japan.

SUMMARY:LOCALISED Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Title: Practical tools for businesses to tackle decarbonisation \nPresenters: \n\nNadia Soledad Ibañez Iralde\, Architect Researcher at the Energy Research Center of Catalonia (IREC)\nGiorgio Coppola\, Researcher at EIEE-CMCC Institute\n\nIn the framework of the European LOCALISED project\, we invite you to participate in a webinar dedicated to present two free tools specifically designed to support the business sector in the energy transition. \nThe LOCALISED project\, funded by the Horizon 2020 program of the European Commission\, aims to bridge the gap between national decarbonization plans and the concrete actions needed at the local level. To achieve this\, the project has developed several digital solutions to facilitate decision-making among local authorities\, citizens\, and businesses\, recognizing that all these groups are key players in the energy transition. \nIn this webinar\, we will present two valuable tools: \n\nThe Net Zero Business Consultant-(NZBC) Developed by the CMCC Foundation in collaboration with Assalombarda\, which is a tool that allows local businesses of the transport\, agriculture and manufacturing sector to assess their risk and vulnerability to the transition.\nThe LOCALISED Sustainable Business Model Canvas (LSBMC)- Designed by the Institute for Energy Research of Catalonia (IREC). A tool designed to help analyse and transform business models to align them with sustainable development. Based on an Excel-like structure\, the tool allows businesses to identify barriers\, detect opportunities and evaluate practical indicators to advance towards decarbonisation.\n\nIn addition\, during the event\, a real case study will be presented to visualize the potential usefulness and capabilities of both tools.

SUMMARY:CMCC Talk
DESCRIPTION:Expanding carbon pricing boundaries and the EU CBAM: insights into China and India\nSpeaker: \nPaola Rocchi\, CMCC \nModerator: \nValentina Bosetti\, CMCC  \nAbstract\nImplemented alongside the EU Emissions Trading System revision\, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) requires importers of selected energy-intensive commodities to purchase certificates reflecting the EU carbon price. Aimed to mitigate carbon leakage and promote cleaner industrial practices outside the EU\, CBAM has sparked heated academic and political debates\, and appears to play a role in accelerating the development of domestic emissions control policies in non-EU countries. This paper has two objectives. First\, it provides an ex-ante evaluation of CBAM by assessing its macroeconomic and environmental impacts within the scope and timeframe of the approved legislative text. Second\, it examines CBAM alongside alternative domestic measures that could exempt non-EU countries from CBAM\, focusing on China and India\, major CO2 emitters and EU exporters. Using the FIDELIO general equilibrium model\, we evaluate the effects of CBAM and potential Chinese and Indian policies on international trade\, production\, and environmental outcomes. Our findings suggest that CBAM’s overall macroeconomic and environmental impacts may be negligible under current legislation. However\, the policy significantly affects production and trade in highly energy-intensive sectors. When integrated into a framework of stringent international carbon control policies\, CBAM’s impact on international trade flows is less pronounced\, with notable regional disparities.

SUMMARY:EIEE Seminar-Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Giacomo Grassi\, Senior scientific officer at the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission (EC) \nTitle: Reconciling land use emissions and implications for net-zero pathways \nAbstract:\nClimate science and national emissions reporting communities have historically used different definitions and methods for anthropogenic land-based carbon removals. This leads to large discrepancies in land use emissions and brings significant implications for the remaining carbon budget and net zero concept. As the mitigation agenda accelerates\, reconciling these differences for comparability and moving toward integration is crucial for enhancing confidence in land-use emission estimates.

SUMMARY:IAMC Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Futures of overshoot: implications for climate pathways and mitigation strategies\nThe Integrated Assessment Modeling Consortium (IAMC) Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) may promote and organise webinars to divulge IAM research. \nAs we inexorably overshoot critical climate thresholds\, the discussion about future emissions pathways and climate risks intensifies and becomes more complex. \nThis talk will review the history of overshoot for emission and mitigation pathways. We will discuss the multifaceted implications of overshoot for emissions\, transforming energy and economic systems\, and equity and technology. We will also review the literature quantifying the climate risks associated with overshoot. We will conclude by looking at ongoing community scenario activities relevant to the IPCC and identifying key research gaps and required methodological innovations. \nThursday\, April 10\, 2025\n14:00 CET/Vienna time \nPresenter: Massimo Tavoni\nCMCC Foundation\, Director\, EIEE\nFull professor\, School of Management\, Politecnico di Milano \n

SUMMARY:CMCC Talk
DESCRIPTION:Global Harms\, Local Profits: How the Uneven Costs of Natural Disasters Affect Support for Green Political Platforms\nSpeaker:\nSilvia Pianta\, CMCC \nModerator:\nCristina Cattaneo\, CMCC \nAbstract\nExtreme events are becoming increasingly common due to climate change. While conventional wisdom suggests that firsthand experiences with natural disasters foster green coalitions by raising awareness of environmental degradation\, we propose an alternative view: natural disasters can heighten the perceived trade-off between economic development and environmental policies. This study\, conducted within the framework of the ADJUST project coordinated by CMCC and funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme\, examines the case of Brazil\, where large-scale fires\, by clearing natural vegetation\, create new opportunities for land grabbing and the expansion of agriculture and livestock production. Using satellite\, administrative\, and electoral data\, we show that large-scale fires increase support for green candidates only in municipalities unlikely to gain economically from the fires. Survey data further indicates that voters prioritize environmental protection over economic growth only when they stand to receive limited or no benefit from the newly cleared land. Our findings suggest that the potential for natural disasters to foster green coalitions is contingent upon their distributive effects.
