It was a privilege to attend the Overshoot Conference at @iiasa.ac.at! We had really insightful interdisciplinary sessions on such a fundamental challenge for climate science and policy. Lots of food for thought & work to do! 💡
Also, I'm really grateful to have received the Poster Prize Award! 🏅😊

🌡️ Europe’s #heat extremes won’t stop, even at net-zero. Each year of delay locks in hotter and more frequent extremes for centuries. Mediterranean heatwaves could even be 30x more likely if the Paris Agreement is reached ten years late. 🧪 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1... @edualastrue.bsky.social

Fantastic colloquium today by @eleanorfrajka.bsky.social on the state of knowledge of AMOC observations 🌊 It’s incredible & fascinating how far the field got in the last 20 years 💡 But also, how much there is left to understand & the need for more collaborative AMOC community 🤝
