Super Video Zusammenfassung des Kapitels zu Landnutzung & Ökosystemen im 🇦🇹 Klimabericht: 🌾 Landwirtschaft = 10 % der THG-Emissionen Österreichs 🌍 16% der Agrarimporte stammen aus klimaanfälligen Regionen Lösungen: 🥩 Weniger Tierprodukte, 🌱 mehr Natur, 🔄 Konflikte fair lösen #AAR2 #APCC

The Austrian Assessment Report on Climate Change #AAR2 by #APCC is now published. aar2.ccca.ac.at @ccca.ac.at Here are eight key messages:

📘 Die BOKU-Autor*innen des Zweiten Österreichischen Sachstandsberichts zum Klimawandel rufen zu einer entschlossenen Klimapolitik auf: short.boku.ac.at/92odzp001000...

Heute wurde der Klimabericht #AAR2 - der Zweite Österreichische Sachstandsbericht zum Klimawandel - veröffentlicht! In Kooperation & mit Begleitung des CCCA wurde der Bericht von rund 200 Wissenschaftler:innen erarbeitet. Die Vollversion & die Zusammenfassungen findet ihr hier: aar2.ccca.ac.at

Erstmals seit Mitte der 1960-er Jahre - also seit 60 Jahren - nimmt der Holzvorrat im Wald leicht ab. Damit hat der Wald - trotz nach wie vor leicht wachsender Waldfläche - in der letzten Periode wohl netto keinen Kohlenstoff mehr aus der Atmosphäre aufgenommen. www.bfw.gv.at/pressemeldun...

🚨Ausschreibung: studentische Mitarbeit! Wir suchen jemanden, der*die bei der Recherche (quantitativer) Informationen zu Waldweide in Österreich im 19. Jh unterstützt🌳🌲🐂📖 . Diverse Studienrichtungen willkommen boku.ac.at/fileadmin/da... @zug-wien.bsky.social

Forest recovery can be beneficial for people and nature, but this is not necessarily so. Check out our new paper led by C Kull on nine pitfalls when equating forest transitions with shifts towards more sustainability! Open access now www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

🚨 Endlich heraußen: der APCC Special Report: Landnutzung und Klimawandel in Österreich! Alles darüber, wie Landnutzung in 🇦🇹 - den Klimawandel beeinflusst - vom Klimawandel betroffen ist - das Klima schützen kann Open access e-book hier 👉 link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

New paper with Léonore Darrobers, Andreas Magerl: "Timber trade in the United States of America 1870 to 2017. A socio-metabolic analysis" Using social metabolism indicators, we show how the United States imported more and more wood since 1870, while domestic forests recovered. Open access 👇#envhist

Very cool new project funded by the Austrian Science Funds. We will investigate the resilience and malleability of social metabolism - that is, how to cope with supply chain disruptions while trying to move towards sustainability & justice. Here IIASA's press release iiasa.ac.at/news/mar-202...

New paper out: "Livestock increasingly drove global agricultural emissions growth from 1910–2015" We quantify and analyze long-term emissions from global agricultural activities. Growing livestock production played a key role & overcompensated efficiency increases of agricultural industrialization👇

The Austrian 🇦🇹 climate-science community is writing a national Climate Assessment Report (#AAR2) following the process & structure of the IPCC - and at @uniinnsbruck.bsky.social, we're hiring an earlycareer researcher to support the co-chairs & authors geographie.uibk.ac.at/unicms/chls/...

Wie kann Landnutzung helfen das Klima zu schützen? Dazu habe ich im Online Standard mit Karlheinz Erb und Christian Lauk einen kurzen Beitrag geschrieben.
