👋 We’re happy to see you all again for Day 2 of #ClimateArena #CA25 - here is a selection from Day 1:
Two women making a presentation, showing the audience a pie chart on a laptop screen.
Three people sitting together at a university-style desk, actively working on something intently on a laptop.
A man sitting down in front of his laptop, from which he is presenting a chart about climate litigation cases ongoing around the world.
Several people wearing Climate Arena lanyards, walking into a large auditorium together in a line, in conversation.

Eine Analyse von 52 Carbon-offset Projekten in REDD+ in 12 tropischen Ländern zeigt, dass nur ein Fünftel die angestrebten Emissionsreduktionen erreicht. Die Emissionsreduktionen waren zwar etwas größer als bei einer früheren Studie, aber immer noch unzureichend.

Tropical forest carbon offsets deliver partial gains amid persistent over-crediting
REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation Plus) projects generate carbon credits to offset emissions, but recent studies have questioned their effectiveness. We evaluated 52 volunta...

This year's #ClimateArena is in full swing. Discussions on climate finance, the deep dive into how the chemistry behind burning fossil fuels, it's just as good as the previous years!

I've packed everything important for #ClimateArena in Budapest. Excited to meet new as well as familiar faces among European climate journalists. Watch out for the pub quiz and of course more serious presentations!

Wow, ich hoffe, im Angesicht der Weltlage, kümmern sich das EU-Parlament, die nationale Spitzenpolitik, die Agrarvertreter und alle Medien um meine Befindlichkeit!!!!

Barely a month before COP30, the main topic remains "logistics". There's barely been any discussion about what the US, which is set to leave Paris Agreement in January, will be doing to make negotiations harder.

Nations Rethink Plans for Brazil Climate Summit as Costs Soar
The countries most vulnerable to climate change face a dearth of rooms and steep rates to attend the COP30 meeting in the Amazon.

Gerade mit einem Freund für in vier Wochen verabredet. Sometimes I hate adult life.

You mean...like Germany? But as emissions are usually accounted for on production level (not consumption)...I guess this will not be taken into consideration.

Methane from US oil and gas infrastructure causes more climate change than the entire US buildings and agriculture sectors. It has surged since ~2007 when the fracking boom began. Nations who are considering importing US natural gas should think carefully about its underestimated climate impacts.

New paper. I wish this wasn't the case, but most progress on reducing US greenhouse gas emissions is likely spurious. Why? EPA underestimates methane emissions from oil and gas. Relevant today as Repubs vote to gut IRA's methane monitoring/mitigation program. 🧵

Met a woman who uses strava solely to track where she walked during vacation. And it's truly ingenious.

So what did you do in your holiday? Well, here's a look my Strava route 🤯

Das MoMA wollt eigentlich die wind map zeigen, die mit Daten der NOAA erstellt wird.

Das MoMA zeigt jetzt etwas anderes.

And the second day starts just as wild as the first one ended. A wild ride through climate risk, policy, weather bonds, climate impacts on housing markets...

Really excited for the next few days in New York, the input during the Climate Economics Journalism Fellowship at NYU.

Who wants to see all the tourist pictures afterwards, please head to my Instagram... I'll spare you here

"Wir werden die Ausbauziele leicht zurücknehmen", so sagte es Friedrich Merz gestern bei den Deutschen Maschinenbauern mit Blick auf die Erneuerbaren Energien.
Merz macht die deutschen Klimaziele damit unerreichbar.
Insbesondere, wenn die BuReg mit Milliardensubventionen Erdgaskraftwerke zubaut.
