SUMMARY:The economics of a just and equitable transition - Pre-Conference Workshop
DESCRIPTION:  \nPre-conference Workshop of the 27th Annual EAERE Conference \nThe economics of a just and equitable transition \nHybrid Workshop: Onsite and online \n\nOrganizing committee: Jan Steckel (MCC) Massimo Tavoni (RFF-CMCC) Elena Verdolini (RFF-CMCC) \n\n\nThe programme of the Workshop in NOW available.\nRegister here!\n\n\nScope:The aim of this workshop is to discuss how methods in environmental and resource economics can contribute to assess and quantify the impact of the low carbon transition on certain parts of society\, and how they can be alleviated. It will present approaches to identify policies that can be put in place to correct pre–existing and transition–induced inequalities. The workshop will thus focus on issues related to employment\, distributional impacts of policies\, and public acceptance of the climate transition\, with the aim to foster a debate on the research and policy agenda focusing on the Just Transition.Addressing climate change will only be successful when related policies are perceived as fair and equitable. Climate change impacts will lead to severe economic losses\, unevenly distributed across countries and regions\, generations and individuals; they will aggravate existing inequalities and create new ones. Yet\, the costs associated with the energy transition or external shocks may also disproportionately burden vulnerable households\, firms\, communities and social groups. \nThe EAERE community has long addressed topics linked with the distributional impacts of climate change policies\, and their repercussions on and prospect for the labor market and the public perception around tradeoffs between mitigation and economic growth. In recent years\, novel methods have emerged to approach these topics. A deeper and meaningful dialogue can be fostered by building bridges between different research communities within and outside ofEAERE.\n\nProgram:The workshop has two aims. First\, it takes stock of the methods in economics and other social sciences which can contribute to an assessment of the Just Transition. It will explore how methodologies and assessment tools used in climate economics and modeling have been used to inform the debate regarding a just transition. Recent developments\, theoretical\, empirical and numerical\, will be discussed to highlight how different methodological approaches can contribute to the academic debate on key topics relevant for the Just Transition.Second\, it looks forward and discusses how to develop the Just Transition research agenda with the aim of informing the policy debate. This includes broadening the attention to methods and insights from other research fields\, as well as discussing how to use the available evidence to inform the current policy debate and identify key knowledge gaps and potential avenues for future research. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFormat:The workshop is organized in three thematic sessions: Workforce and Employment\, Vulnerable Households and Firms\, and Public Acceptance. Each session will last approximately for one and half hours and will present short talks by invited speakers\, followed by discussion among participants. A final round table discussion will gather reaction from high–profile individuals engaged in research and policy making. \n\n\n\nSchedule: \n\nJune 27\, 2022\n\n15:00 – 15:30 Arrival and Welcome\n15:30 – 16:00 Workshop Rationale and Objectives.

SUMMARY:NAVIGATE-CHIPS -Stakeholders workshop
DESCRIPTION:NAVIGATE-CHIPS STAKEHOLDER WORKSHOP CLIMATE POLICY AND JUST TRANSITION \n  \nOver the next decades\, societies will be subject to large transformations related to climate change mitigation policies. These transformations will have differential effects in different locations as well as in different societal groups\, with the poor likely to experience the worst consequences. In turn\, this raises issues of the societal acceptability of mitigation policies and of the possibility of compensation of transformation costs through transfers. The workshop will highlight the distributive impacts of mitigation policies in the context of human development at different levels of global warming and along different socioeconomic pathways. However\, increasing capture of spatial and social heterogeneity in a rich scenario space also increases the complexity of research results and consequently the hurdle for their use by stakeholders. An exchange with stakeholders ensuring transparency\, usability and applicability of research outcomes becomes ever more crucial. The objective of this workshop will be to present results from the NAVIGATE and CHIPS projects pertaining to the impact of climate mitigation policies on inequality\, poverty and other Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The workshop also aims at establishing a dialogue with stakeholders on how to convey and disseminate research results on those issues. Identifying relevant aspects of mitigation policies and their impact is a key question in this dialogue. \nProgramme \n9:30-9:45 Welcome and introduction \nObjective of the morning: present preliminary results from the projects\, discuss them and gather feedback and questions. \n9:45-11:00 Session 1: Mitigation policies: inequality and acceptability (CHIPS) \nStellio Del Campo (MCC)\, “Inequality aversion for climate policy” \nJose Labeaga (UNED)\, “Implications of carbon taxation on inequality and poverty in Mexico” \nThomas Sterner (U.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar - Mar Reguant
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mar Reguant\, Northwestern UniversityModerator: Valentina Bosetti\, Bocconi University and RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment\, CMCC \nTitle: The Dynamic Impact of Market Integration: Evidence from Renewable Energy Expansion in Chile\nco-authoured with Luis E Gonzales and Koichiro Ito\nAbstract:We study the static and dynamic impacts of market integration on renewable energy expansion. Our theory highlights that statically\, market integration improves allocative efficiency by gains from trade\, and dynamically\, it incentivizes new entry of renewable power plants. Using two recent grid expansions in the Chilean electricity market\, we empirically test our theoretical predictions and show that commonly-used event study estimation underestimates the dynamic benefits if renewable investments occur in anticipation of market integration. We build a structural model of power plant entry and show how to correct for such bias. We find that market integration resulted in price convergence across regions\, increases in renewable generation\, and decreases in generation cost and pollution emissions. Furthermore\, a substantial amount of renewable entry would not have occurred in the absence of market integration. We show that ignoring this dynamic effect would substantially understate the benefits of transmission investments.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar - Erich Muehlegger ETH
DESCRIPTION:Energy Prices and Electric Vehicle Adoption \nThis paper presents evidence that gasoline prices have a larger effect on demand for electric vehicles (EVs) than electricity prices in California. We match a spatially-disaggregated panel dataset of monthly EV registration records to detailed records of gasoline and electricity prices in California from 2014-2017\, and use these to estimate the effect of energy prices on EV demand. Two distinct empirical approaches (panel fixed-effects and a utility-border discontinuity) yield remarkably similar results: a given change in gasoline prices has roughly four to six times the effect on EV demand as a similar percentage change in electricity prices. We explore the implications for optimal EV subsidies\, which promote externality reduction benefits and correct for consumer mis-optimization stemming from the undervaluation of future electricity costs. \nSpeaker Erich Muehlegger ETH

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar -Mirabelle Muuls\, Imperial College
DESCRIPTION:Title: Homeworking can be Net Positive\, Evidence from the UK Lockdown during COVID-19 \nPresenter: Mirabelle Muuls\, Imperial College \nAbstract \nThis study explores the effect of shifts in teleworking and work related commuting patterns on energy consumption in the domestics sector during the 2020 spring lockdown in the UK\, and its wider implications towards achieving lower carbon footprint. Smart meter data from 1\,164 participating households shows that it could have been the case that homeworking shifted electricity demand away from the peak\, at high carbon content\, to other times of the day\, at lower carbon content. As a result\, weekly electricity consumption rose by 10.3% on average during lockdown. This may indicate great potential for a nation wide systems based change alongside behavioural changes to further reduce carbon emissions in the future. Isolating from the effect of the grid’s carbon intensity being lower\, electricity driven emissions among participating households increased by a few percentage points less then consumption\, which indicates that a smoothing of demand has a positive impact already. We then control for work related changes in household occupancy during lockdown in our sample of 452 survey respondents. Not only do our results show that working from home accounts for a significant share of the lockdown effect on electricity driven emissions\, but overall\, the household carbon emissions largely decreased in response to changes in commuting patterns. Reductions in carbon emissions are estimated to approach 29% on average\, and by far offset the rise in electricity driven emissions during the same period of time. This is an avenue for companies to reduce their environmental footprint by implementing flexible working scheme and allowing employees to work from home.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar -Jessica Coria\, University of Gothenburg
DESCRIPTION:Title: Effects of the EU Chemical Regulation: Is there a Chemical Green Paradox? (joint work with Olof Johansson-Stenman) \nPresenter: Jessica Coria\, University of Gothenburg \n  \nAbstract \nWe investigate the effects of the Candidate List of the European chemicals regulation REACH\, which gives advanced safety information to downstream users about substances of very high concern posing risks to human health and the environment. The substances included on the Candidate List will progressively be put forward for inclusion on the Authorization List\, implying that they cannot be manufactured in or imported into the EU from a sunset date\, unless the companies have obtained an authorization for their specific use(s). \nOur theoretical model shows that the Candidate List affects the consumption of hazardous chemicals through different countervailing channels. On the one hand\, disclosure about the hazard properties reduces the demand of the chemicals. On the other hand\, stocks might built up to mitigate the risk that the chemical may be unavailable in the future. We test these theoretical predictions using official registry data on the consumption of hazardous chemicals in Sweden. Our findings suggest that reductions in consumption are only observed for chemicals for which the disclosure effect is large.

SUMMARY:RFF - CMCC - NAVIGATE Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Internalising health-economic impacts of air pollution into climate policy: a global modelling study\n\n\n\nSpeaker:\nLara Aleluia Reis\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\nModerator:\nJohannes Emmerling\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n\n\nAbstract: \nClimate change and air pollution are two major societal problems. Previous assessments have looked at the co-benefits of climate policies for air pollution\, but few have optimised air pollution benefits. In the study presented\, the authors lay out a modelling framework that internalises air pollution’s economic impacts on human mortality\, while considering climate constraints and aerosol feedback.\nThe researchers developed a modelling framework based on an integrated assessment model (World Induced Technical Change Hybrid) designed to assess optimal climate change mitigation policies. They included structural and end-of-pipe measures in a detailed process integrated assessment model\, that is hard-linked to air pollution and climate models. They analysed a large set of baseline scenarios\, including five shared socioeconomic pathways. The shared socioeconomic pathways scenarios were also tested with three different levels of value per statistical life and were combined with the Paris Agreement temperature targets (2°C and 1.5°C).\nResults showed that welfare-maximising policies accounting for air pollution benefits reduces premature mortality by 1.62 million deaths annually which is three times greater than the co-benefits of climate policies. Authors also find that global and regional welfare increases when air pollution impacts are internalised\, with no negative repercussions on global inequality.\nAir pollution control strategies are found to be an important complement to structural emission reductions. Accounting for air pollution impacts reduces climate mitigation costs and inequality and increases global and regional welfare. Results are robust to a broad set of scenarios and assumptions\, including debated normative choices on how to value improved health. \n

SUMMARY:La scienza della transizione climatica
DESCRIPTION:(Private event\, Italian) \nDALLE ULTIME EVIDENZE NEL RAPPORTO ONU ALLE NUOVE SFIDE PER UNA TRASFORMAZIONE SOSTENIBILE ED INCLUSIVA \nIn occasione della pubblicazione dei risultati del Sesto Rapporto di valutazione (AR6) del Gruppo Intergovernativo sui cambiamenti climatici delle Nazioni Unite (IPCC) l’evento vuole essere il momento in cui poter discutere alcuni tra i principali risultati raggiunti direttamente con i tre scienziati italiani che hanno contribuito alla sua stesura. \nIl rapporto è la più esaustiva e aggiornata rassegna della conoscenza scientifica sui cambiamenti climatici per i governi\, la comunità scientifica internazionale e l’opinione pubblica mondiale. \nIn particolare\, il racconto si focalizzerà su alcuni dei nuovi risultati del Gruppo di Lavoro III dell’IPCC\, legato alla mitigazione del cambiamento climatico\, ottenibile limitando o prevenendo le emissioni di gas serra e potenziando le attività che rimuovono questi gas dall’atmosfera. Il Gruppo di lavoro III affronta tutti gli aspetti della mitigazione\, compresi la fattibilità tecnica\, i costi e le condizioni abilitanti che permetterebbero l’adozione delle misure. Le sinergie e i compromessi con le misure di adattamento sono di crescente interesse\, così come i co-benefici\, i rischi e i legami con lo sviluppo sostenibile. \n  \nIl team di scienziati\, di cui i tre relatori fanno parte\, fornisce sia una prospettiva a breve termine rilevante per i responsabili delle decisioni nei governi e nelle imprese\, sia una prospettiva a lungo termine che aiuta a comprendere come raggiungere gli ambiziosi obiettivi della politica climatica.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar Matto Mildenberger
DESCRIPTION:How to get the public on board with climate reforms \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Matto Mildenberger\, UC Santa Barbara\, USA\nModerator: Silvia Pianta\, European University Institute and RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment\, Italy\n\nAbstract:\nThe politics of climate change\, including carbon pricing\, remain challenging. Many climate policies foreground costs and background benefits\, leaving the policies vulnerable to political attacks by fossil fuel interests. In this talk\, I will share a series of experiments testing strategies to build public support for specific climate policies. First\, I will share the results from two information experiments conducted in Switzerland and Canada\, the two countries that have set up rebate programs to accompany national carbon prices. We find limited evidence that individuals who learn about rebates they are currently receiving\, shift their preferences for the rebate-generating policy. In follow-up work\, we provide detailed cost and benefit information with survey respondents in the United States and Switzerland\, tailoring this information to household size and income quintiles. Providing specific benefit and cost information increases support for climate policy\, especially among low-income groups\, in the abstract. However\, the effects disappear in the presence of even mild political messaging. Finally\, we present results from a conjoint experiment conducted in ten of the largest carbon-polluters globally\, testing whether political coalitions for climate reforms expand when integrating social and economic policies into climate reform packages. We find strong evidence that these benefits-oriented packages enjoy increased public support\, even in the presence of realistic information about program costs.

SUMMARY:Crash course: Google Earth Engine with R for geospatial analysis
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nGIACOMO FALCHETTA\, CMCC@Ca’ Foscari\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE) and International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) \nModerator:\nENRICA DE CIAN\, CMCC@Ca’ Foscari\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE) and Venice Ca’ Foscari University \nRequirements: \n\n    ATTENTION: for a better interaction during the seminar\, you had a better request a Google Earth Engine account as well before the course starts at: https://signup.earthengine.google.com/#!/\n    R 3.6+ and RStudio installed on your computer\n    Basic knowledge of the R programming language\n    An understanding of what spatial data and GIS are\n\n  \n  \nAbstract: \nRemote sensing techniques enable collecting large amounts of granular information over large areas (e.g. globally) and at different spatio-temporal resolution scales. Satellite data and other GIS products are increasingly available to everyone and for free\, and they find applications in a growing number of research areas related to climate change\, environmental science\, economics\, and human development. However\, processing highly granular data to fit specific research needs comes at the cost of high computational requirements. Google Earth Engine (GEE) is a free-for-research online toolbox that uses Google cloud computing to quickly process large amounts of spatial data\, including data from Google’s very large data catalogue. GEE thus allows to circumnavigate the local download and processing of raw data by moving these tasks on the cloud. In this crash course we show how to use GEE directly from the R programming language\, and thus integrate GEE processing steps into conventional coding routines\, including the widely used raster and sf R packages. We provide examples of data processing tasks and discuss potential applications.

SUMMARY:RFF-CMCC Navigate Webinar Industry transformative change towards carbon neutrality
DESCRIPTION:Title: RFF-CMCC-NAVIGATE Webinar – Industry transformative change towards carbon neutrality\n\nModerator: Nico Bauer (PIK)\nSpeaker 1: Mariësse van Sluisveld (PBL) – A race to zero – Assessing the position of heavy industry in a global net-zero CO2 emissions context\nSpeaker 2: Alexandre Szklo (COPPE) – The role of biomaterials for the energy transition from the lens of a national integrated assessment model\nSpeaker 3: Silvia Madeddu (PIK) – The CO2 reduction potential for the European industry via direct electrification of heat supply (power-to-heat)\nSpeaker 4: Panagiotis Fragkos (E3M) – Reducing the Decarbonisation Cost Burden for EU Energy-Intensive Industries \nAbstract\nIndustry is the second largest emitting sector and is considered a hard-to-decarbonise one\, due to its heavy reliance on fossil fuels to supply high-temperature heat and raw materials. A clear perspective on the viable decarbonisation pathways for heavy industries like steel\, cement and chemicals\, is needed to reach climate neutrality.\nTask 2.4 of the NAVIGATE project\, brings together seven research teams (PIK\, E3M\, IIASA\, PBL\, COPPETEC\, NTNU and JRC) in a joint effort to improve the modelling of this complex sector. The participants aim at achieving a deeper understanding of the technological transformations needed to reduce industrial emissions while providing insights on the economic and policy implications of this sector’s transformative change.\nThe webinar presents the results of four studies published within the framework of task 2.4 thanks to the NAVIGATE funding support. The studies provide an overview of the possible decarbonisation pathways for industry in the context of a net-zero emissions world by 2050. They dive into specific low-carbon options and their decarbonisation potential\, e.g. biomaterials and  electrification\, and explore climate policies which can support industry transformation. \n  \nMore info will be available soon. \n

SUMMARY:Webinar - Understanding Just Transitions in Coal-Dependent Communities: Case Studies from Mpumalanga\, South Africa\, and Jharkhand\, India
DESCRIPTION:Understanding Just Transitions in Coal-Dependent Communities: Case Studies from Mpumalanga\, South Africa\, and Jharkhand\, India \nSpeaker: Sandeep Pai\, Center for Strategic and International Studies\, 1616 Rhode Island Avenue NW\, Washington\, D.C.\, United States \nModerator: Johannes Emmerling\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici \nAbstract \nThe world has already warmed to over 1°C above pre-industrial levels\, largely due to the burning of fossil fuels such as coal. This is causing ever-increasing rates of climate-related events such as floods\, droughts\, and wildfires. Any steps to keep global warming well below 2°C\, a target en­shrined in the Paris Agreement\, would require rapid reduction in the use of fossil fuels—particularly coal. Although some Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries have already made plans to phase out coal-based power\, attaining Paris Agreement goals would require large coal-dependent emerging economies\, including South Africa and India\, to also reduce their long-term dependency on coal. In both South Africa and India\, coal transitions will likely have an outsized impact in certain areas because of the concentration of coal production in a handful of states. We focus on Mpumalanga and Jharkhand—two prominent coal-dependent regions in South Africa and India and analyze coal dependency and just transition prospects in these jurisdictions. We explore coal-related socio-economic dependency in Mpumalanga and Jharkhand and investigate the following key elements of just transition planning: (1) the challeng­es and opportunities associated with diversification of provincial/state economies’; (2) the pros­pects for environmental rehabilitation of coal mines and power plants; and (3) the landscape of stakeholders important for just transition planning\, including underrepresented stakeholders. Overall\, the study finds that phasing out coal in emerging economies will require a nuanced understanding of coal ecosystems and key elements of just transitions in regional contexts. This study illus­trates key considerations for just transition planning in emerging economies based on the above case studies. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar - Endogenous Abatement Technology
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ghassane Benmir\, London School of EconomicsModerator: Valentina Bosetti\, Bocconi University and RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: In this paper\, we first explore empirical evidence on i) the role the ETS carbon pricing system plays in emissions reduction at the Euro Zone (EZ) level\, and ii) fiscal and macro-financial drivers of green innovation. We use macro time series data from EZ and US as well as panel data from the EZ\, receptively. We find that the ETS price plays a significant role in emissions reduction\, as well as in steering green innovation. However\, above a certain level\, it negatively impacts green research and development (R&D)\, whereas long-term loans help boost green R&D. Second\, to investigate the role financial policy could play in stimulating green R&D\, we build a general equilibrium model where we show how green innovation could help achieve the net-zero target at lower output costs compared to fiscal carbon policies. We then expand the model to account for both financial intermediaries and endogenous green growth\, the latter of which implies increasingly efficient abatement. Using Bayesian techniques\, we first estimate the model and then construct counterfactual policy implementation scenarios\, where we show that financial subsidies\, macroprudential policies\, and monetary policy differently aspect the path of the trend growth in green innovation\, and that they all have the same pro-cyclical dynamics. Finally\, we investigate the net-zero emissions target under the three above-mentioned policies in order to assess their efficacy.

SUMMARY:Webinar – Investigating equivalent black carbon (eBC) in an urban environment: spatial analysis and personal exposure of school-age children in Milan
DESCRIPTION:  \nTITLE: Investigating equivalent black carbon (eBC) in an urban environment: spatial analysis and personal exposure of school-age children in Milan \nSpeaker: Luca Boniardi\, Department of Clinical Sciences and Community Health\, University of Milan\nModerator: Lara Aleluia Reis\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n \nAbstract:\nAir pollution is a global threat to public health\, especially if considering susceptible populations\, such as children. Among others\, equivalent black carbon (eBC) is a primary air pollutant strictly linked with fossil fuels combustion\, i.e\, one of the main sources of air pollution in the urban environment. Besides\, it represents a valuable indicator of adverse health effects related to airborne particles and it is recognized as an important climate forcing agent. The aim of this contribution is presenting the results of a three-year participatory-based research focused on both spatial and temporal distribution of eBC starting from a school catchment area of the Municipality of Milan\, as well as an analysis of the personal exposure of children aged 8-10 years.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar - The economic cost of climate change
DESCRIPTION:Title: The economic cost of climate change \nSpeaker: Leonie Wenz\, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) \nModerator: Laurent Drouet\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment \nAbstract: Climate conditions have been shown to have a profound impact on various productive elements of the economy\, measurable at the macro-level as changes in Gross Domestic Product (GDP). There is however huge uncertainty as to how big this impact is and if climate shocks affect economic growth also in the long-run. I will present new evidence gained from a unique data set of subnational economic output that comprises more than 1500 regions in 77 countries and discuss implications for climate policy. Specifically\, in recent work\, we have empirically estimated historic temperature impacts at different time scales\, from daily fluctuations to changes in the long-term mean. Our findings show that temperature changes affect productivity levels considerably\, in particular in low-income\, low-latitude regions. Based on our results\, we have projected economic damages under future warming and updated estimates of the social cost of carbon.

SUMMARY:RFF Live | Carbon Border Measures: What Happens with Ambitious Climate Policies?
DESCRIPTION:  \nAmbitious climate policies to achieve net-zero emissions are at risk if international trade leads to leakage—when the source of emissions shifts to jurisdictions with less ambitious policies in place. This event will examine the extent of emissions leakage based on increasingly ambitious policy scenarios. It will then report on the effectiveness of border measures to mitigate leakage\, particularly in economically sensitive sectors. \nJoin us for a virtual RFF Live event on Wednesday\, November 3\, as an international set of scholars present recent modeling results that explore the implications of policy proposals currently being considered in the European Union and United States on emissions leakage and climate ambition. \nSpeakers\n• Carolyn Fischer\, Resources for the Future\, World Bank\n• Takashi Homma\, RITE Systems Analysis Group\n• Ramiro Parrado\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment\n• Billy Pizer\, Resources for the Future (Moderator)

SUMMARY:COP26 Side event - The Journey from Scientific insights to Societal Action
DESCRIPTION:We\, the organisers of this COP side­-event would like to invite you to join “The Journey from Scientific insights to Societal Action” under the topic “Science\, technology\, research and innovation”. \nOur excursion will take place virtually on Monday 1st November 2021 for one hour\, at 11:30am (GMT+1\, Glasgow time)\n07:30 EDT / 11:30 UTC / 12:30 CET / 13:30 EET / 14:30 MSK / 19:30 CST / 22:30 AEDT \n(note: change to Winter Time on 31 October) \n\nRegister and join our event “1.O.2” here \nhttps://www.cop26eusideevents.eu/ \n\nWe will take a leap of faith and travel from one end of the spectrum to the other\, from natural to social sciences\, from theory to practice. The journey will show you how and why science and knowledge need to be shared\, in the context of Climate Change and the COP.\nWe are members of an interdisciplinary variety of organisations and projects (in order of appearance): \n\nECRA\, the European Climate Research Alliance ­ a network of climate scientists of Europe\nEUA\, the European University Association ­ represents more than 800 universities and national rectors’ conferences in 48 European countries\nCMCC\, the Euro­Mediterranean Center on Climate Change ­ presenting outcomes of the projects SOCLIMPACT\, COACCH\, and PESETA.\nIIASA\, the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis ­ presenting ENGAGE project results.\nCPA\, the Climate Psychology Alliance ­ a network exploring the connection between climate science and the human dimension.\n\n  \nFurther information \nTo tackle climate change effectively\, it is important that all levels of society have an understanding of climate change\, and its risks and impacts. This session takes a journey from new scientific research findings about net­zerofutures and climate change impacts\, discussing recent developments in communication\, education and public engagement\, to arrive at policy and action. We want to highlight the importance of scientific work in the context of societal needs and human behaviour; how do science\, politics and decision­makers\, universities\, and all persons involved in Climate Change understand\, create and deal with new information and knowledge. The expected outcome of this event is to clarify the relationships and strategies between the stakeholders and to find possible solutions to better deal with Climate Change. \n\nJoin us on www.cop26eusideevents.eu\, do not forget to register before joining our event. \nThe complete programme of the COP 26 Side Events can be found at this website: \nWe look forward to seeing you online! \nFor any questions\, please contact us via Winfried.Hoke@ecra­climate.eu
