Hey hey, want to know how you as a company can help to combat the Climate Crisis, read my newest article here and don't forget to subscribe to my monthly newsletter.

Dr. Wildcat asks that you please read this. In a nutshell, humans are a threatened species, due to our drastic impacts to the global #climate, however we can minimize this threat with collective action. This study reassesses the human climate niche, examining its underlying mechanisms and connections to temperature extremes. It calculates current and future exposure outside this niche under various demographic and global warming scenarios. Exposure outside the niche can lead to increased morbidity, mortality, adaptation in place, or migration. High temperatures are linked to increased mortality, decreased labor productivity, cognitive performance, learning, adverse pregnancy outcomes, crop yield potential, conflict, hate speech, migration, and the spread of infectious diseases. Additionally, climate-related harms not covered by the niche include sea-level rise. In a future world with a population of 9.5 billion, assessing worst-case scenarios is crucial. If the transient climate response to cumulative emissions is high, current policies could lead to approximately 3.6°C global warming by the end of the century. This would result in 34% of the population (3.3 billion) being exposed to extreme heat, 39% (3.7 billion) outside the climate niche due to temperature changes alone, and 48% (4.5 billion) when including demographic changes. If climate policies are not enacted and fossil-fuel development continues, global warming could reach about 4.4°C, exposing 45% (4.2 billion) to extreme heat, 47% (4.5 billion) outside the niche from temperature changes alone, and 55% (5.3 billion) when including demographic changes. #GlobalWarming #ClimateChange #ClimatePolicy

Impact of global warming? Asia's 61% population 'deprived of clean water' By Vikas Meshram A recent study from Utrecht University in the Netherlands warns that climate change and socio-economic transformations will exacerbate water scarcity, disproportionately affecting populations in South Asian countries. Human beings require clean water for drinking, sanitation, food production, energy, and manufacturing. Across the globe, people and policymakers are grappling #Counterview #ImpactofGlobalwarming

NAS Bioventures Global warming: Pre-seed investment for ClimateTech: This round of investment focuses on developing the working model of combination of technologies to restore the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystems. I was reading an article about the various methods being explored to address global warming. The key points to note is that we altered the environment to make our life luxurious without having thorough understanding of the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem that had created the stable system with each contributing towards the same. No one will really know the implications of technologies and by the time we know it may be too late. While focus is on Carbon emissions, one example of the many to look into is that we also need to look at the fact that in densely populated regions, we have converted lands to roads. Soil which were fertile and had sound ecosystem with various life forms is no longer fertile and ecosystem disrupted. We are converting our land equivalent to a desert like situation in densely populated regions by doing so and raising temperatures. We need to restore the biotic and abiotic components of the soil and water, them being one of the approaches to restore the planet. We did not understand the entirety of the earth or ecosystem before disrupting the balance and the safest way is to restore to what we knew the Earth to be in its best form. The composition of air could be made better and involves a combination of technologies. And most importantly if we rage war, this planet will cease to exist very soon and the very purpose of war defied. At the end of the day, we have money and power for firstly survival with access to all resources and then luxury. if resources cease to exist then what is the point of war.

One of the biggest problems we have encountered in recent years is global warming. Greenhouse gases released into the air as a result of increased fossil fuel use are increasing the greenhouse effect and are causing our planet to warm up more and more each passing day. Global warming is not only showing its effect in terrestrial environments but also in aquatic ecosystems such as seas and oceans. According to a study conducted in recent years, it has been revealed that fish are more affected by global climate change than thought. According to the worst-case scenario predicted for global warming in previous years, it was estimated that there would be a 5°C global temperature increase by 2100 and that 5% of fish species would have difficulty coping with the heat, but since this study was based only on a number of analyses obtained from adult fish, it did not give us a completely accurate result. In a study conducted in recent years, it was determined that 60% of fish species would not be able to cope with this 5°C global temperature increase, considering the differences between spawning and non-spawning adults, larvae and embryos. In addition, according to this research, even a global temperature increase of only 1.5°C, which is the target of the Paris Climate Agreement, poses a danger to 10% of fish species. We can attribute this increase in the danger rate to the fact that hatching fish and embryo fish are more intolerant of high-temperature waters and prefer to live in cold waters where oxygen is better dissolved. Unfortunately, the temperature increase in recent years has been faster than fish can adapt. Therefore, we must minimize climate change and do all our best to prevent fish, which are a very important food source for humans and play a major role in the life cycle, from being endangered.

"A shift in lifestyles, such as wasting less food and eating more plant-based meals are key to getting the world on track to meet the Paris Agreement commitments, according to a study published?on Wednesday.? While countries have set emission targets to help the world meet the goal of?limiting global warming?to a maximum of 2C (3.6F), 'it's very unclear how you would actually make progress towards these targets and eventually achieve them,' said Bjoern Soergel, a researcher at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and the study’s lead author.? To provide clarity, Soergel and his colleagues analyzed three pathways to reduce emissions and meet the sustainable development goals set in 2015. All three scenarios were designed to help countries reduce emissions in line with the Paris Agreement and meet the Sustainable Development Goals that focus on improving wellbeing agreed to in 2015. Researchers found that the pathway focused on lifestyle changes was the least dependent on novel technologies while also having the greatest additional positive outcomes for biodiversity and climate protection.? In this scenario, consumption drops in the Global North, a polarizing idea?known as post-growth. Those in favor of post-growth — which involves shifting from GDP as the main economic metric to a more holistic view — argue that humans can’t reduce their ecological impact without moving away from an economic mandate of perpetual growth. Instead, proponents argue, the richest countries should cut consumption and move toward a circular economy."

[Impact Indicators??] "Global warming expressed in #co2e" ever read an #EnvironmentalReport and wondered what these impact indicators actually mean? ?? In our new LinkedIn series we briefly go through different #environmental impact indicators you might encounter when preparing for your extrafinancial disclosure. This is the introduction post ?? ? What are environmental impact indicators (EII)? ?? EII help to monitor the effects of human activities on the environment. There are several different EII, each designed to provide quantitative information about a certain area of the ecosystem. Here are some examples: ? - Global warming expressed in kgCO2eq - Ozone depletion expressed in kg CFC-11 eq - Acidification of soils and water expressed in kg SO2 eq - Water eutrophication expressed in kg (PO4)3- eq - Photochemical ozone formation expressed in kg C2H4 eq - Depletion of abiotic resources – elements, expressed in kg Sb eq - Total use of primary energy during life cycle expressed in MJ - Net use of fresh water expressed in m3 ? Why should I need to know about EII? ?? Environmental Disclosure Regulations/Laws: Depending on which EU Member State you are in, the #CorporateSustainabilityReportingDirective (#CSRD) might require you to look into EII ?? #CarbonFootprints: Mostly require #GlobalWarming expressed in #CO2eq, needed e.g. for @GHG protocoll ?? #LifeCycleAssessments: These kind of analysies require several EII. You might need it for a PEP ecopassport, EPD International AB or others. Want to learn about LCA? Check out our Blogpost https://lnkd.in/erhRJjW3 ? ??

I recently came across the article “???? ?????? ?????? ???? ??????????: ???????????????????? ?????? ?????????????????? ?????? ???????????? ???????? ????????!” written by Glen P. Peters and Malte Meinshausen and reviewed by Young Reviewers: Jude (15 years) and The Amazing Six group (14-16 years). It discusses the alarming rise in greenhouse gas emissions, despite long-standing awareness of climate change. The article highlights the need for stronger policies to meet climate pledges, aiming for net-zero emissions to mitigate the worst effects of global warming and ensure a sustainable future. ?????? ????????????: ?? Fossil fuels are the main source of greenhouse gas emissions. ?? Renewable energy is crucial for reducing emissions. ?? Deforestation and unsustainable farming practices also contribute to climate change. ?? It’s not just about stopping future emissions; the CO2 we’ve already released will affect future generations. ?? We have international agreements like the Paris Agreement, but we need stricter policies to meet climate goals. ??? If we act now, we can limit global warming to around 1.5°C, preventing more severe climate impacts.

?? Project Drawdown: A Pragmatic and Enlightening Approach to Tackling Climate Change ?? I first heard about Project Drawdown on the 45 Graus podcast hosted by José Maria Pimentel (which I highly recommend by the way), and it has since captivated my attention. Project Drawdown is a global research organization that provides a comprehensive, pragmatic, and enlightening plan to tackle global warming. What's fascinating is the diversity and impact of the solutions they propose. They're not just theoretical - they're actionable, grounded in current technology, and mindful of economic realities. From renewable energy to food systems, each solution is ranked based on its potential to reduce greenhouse gases, cost-effectiveness, and overall societal benefits. One fact that particularly stood out to me is that in one of the most conservative scenarios, education in family planning is in the top 3 solutions. This highlights the interconnectedness of social and environmental issues and underscores the importance of a holistic approach to sustainability. I encourage everyone to explore the Project Drawdown list of solutions. It's a roadmap for how we can pragmatically address climate change while also creating new opportunities for economic growth. https://shorturl.at/kvFI9 #ClimateChange #ProjectDrawdown #Sustainability #BusinessStrategy #45Graus
