This week I travelled from Berlin to Budapest by train to attend the #SIPS2025🚆 Instead of flying, I chose a low-emission alternative - the whole trip by train caused only about 10 kilograms of CO₂, compared to approx. 190 kilograms by plane. That’s just 5% of the emissions! 🌍

1/ 🚨 New preprint alert! We (@lisawarner.bsky.social @ajamesgreen.bsky.social and myself) estimated the carbon footprint of air travel associated with >20 international conferences (2023–2025) in psychology & behavioral medicine. Spoiler: it’s a lot. 🛫🌍🧠 Preprint 👉 doi.org/10.31234/osf... 🧵

#ShowYourStripes To compare global warming with that in Germany, I first shrank the global stripes in the y-axis and then placed the data from Germany behind them. The result: warming is happening twice as fast in Germany.

Germany has warmed by about 1.7 degrees Celsius since official meteorological measurements began in 1881. In Berlin, we can see and feel the effects: less snow, and longer, hotter, and drier summers 🌡️ Today 21st June is #ShowYourStripes day - how does climate change look in your area?

Super interesting read, thanks Julia for posting it!
