Report from Dubai

Our guest on today's show is Anders Hammer Strømman, one of the lead authors for the last Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report on mitigation of climate change, released in April 2022. He was invited to Dubai to the COP 28 climate talks to talk to the shipping industry about how they can reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. He also shares his experience – not from the negotiating rooms – but from the perspective of a scientist seeing his work being taken up by policy makers.Here's a link to the IPCC report for which Anders was one of the lead authors:https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg3/chapter/chapter-10/You can read more about other NTNU researchers, including Helene Muri and Edgar Hertwich, who participated in the conference here:https://norwegianscitechnews.com/2023/12/climate-talks-and-the-way-forward/https://norwegianscitechnews.com/2023/12/the-energy-footprint-of-architecture-built-by-oil/https://norwegianscitechnews.com/2021/09/blocking-the-sun-to-control-global-warming/ Hosted on Acast.
