🚨 A potential weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation #AMOC could have devastating impacts. But what do we really know for certain? Today, we’re thrilled to have the renowned climate expert Mojib Latif (@geomar_de) at our #KlimaCampus colloquium to break down the latest facts. 🌍 The room is packed to the brim — good thing we have flexible walls! 🙌 Many of us have a special connection to Latif, as he worked alongside Klaus Hasselmann at our institute from 1983 to 2002. #UHH

Full house at the #KlimaCampus Colloquium here in #Hamburg: #IMPRS committee member Moritz Drupp (#UHH) talks about the economics behind #climate policy – first about how a new paper updates our understanding about the costs of climate inaction 💸, and then about how the German #Umweltsteuer (ecotax) helped in reducing emissions of both #CO2 and local air pollutants. 💨
In April, Moritz will take on a new position at ETH Zürich - a warm farewell from Hamburg! 👋
