Insightful keynote, Special-Psychologe perspective by Kelly Fielding: for society to advance on biodiversity and climate, it is essential that people outside the group of 'usual suspects' speak up - farmers, conservatives, doctors @cbc-conference.bsky.social @unileipzig.bsky.social @ufz.de

Now panel discussion at the @cbc-conference.bsky.social conference on Connections between Biodiversity, Climate and Human Behaviour. Stephan Lewandowsky @lewan.uk cautions against the term polycrisis: "people have an upper limit on what they can worry about" ... "make it specific instead"

An enlightening keynote by @lewan.uk at the @cbc-conference.bsky.social on how climate denialism works - driven by ideology - and how to move forward to overcome it, where attribution science has a role to play.

Spectacular keynote by @moritzdrupp.bsky.social at the CBC conference @cbc-conference.bsky.social biodiversity and it's increasing relative value imply carbon should be taxed more than twice as much (and certainly not subsidized as the German government intends to do!)
