The heat is here to stay

Published 21.10.2022

Europe is warming faster than the global average, and has seen a dramatic increase in the number of heatwaves over the past 40 years. This trend will likely continue, even with major reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

Clean cooking: A recipe for a better world

Published 6.10.2022

Switching cooking in developing countries to cleaner forms of energy will lead to better health and lower greenhouse gas emissions. The 4CImpacts project looks at how gas use can be scaled up in Tanzania, and what consequences it will have for the climate, health and society.

Global co₂ emissions return to near pre-COVID pandemic levels

Published 3.11.2021

Global fossil co₂ emissions are expected to grow 4.9% in 2021, nearly offsetting the 5.4% decline in 2020 due the COVID restrictions. Coal and gas use rebounded strongly to exceed 2019 levels, while oil use remains suppressed, suggesting strong policy action is needed to avoid continued emissions growth in 2022.

ENBEL: Connecting health and climate change research

Climate change is according to the WHO the greatest threat to human health in the 21st century. By bringing together leaders in climate change and health research the CICERO-coordinated Horizon 2020 project ENBEL will contribute with knowledge and policy advice on climate change and health links.

Boreal blaze

Forest fires have become more intense, more frequent and more extensive in several areas, with global warming as one contributing factor. A new research project, led by CICERO, will examine how forest fires near the Arctic will develop and affect the future climate. The aim is to contribute to improved projections of climate change and risk, for the high latitudes and globally, which is crucial for decision-makers who aim to secure the basis of life for people and nature.
