Kicking off the #WMO#polar and high mountain regions committee meeting in Oslo this morning. Long pre-meeting on #Antarctica yesterday to determine policy and strategy was pretty successful. Hoping it will get passed by full panel today.
WMO president Celeste Sauto giving us an online welcome. #PHORS24#ClimateDiary
WMO president is on board with Antarctica, Greenland and sea level rise!
#ClimateScientists often underestimate the importance of the WMO - it's not as visible to us as IPCC say and the focus has long been on #WeatherForecasts but #ClimateScience is very much built on the infrastructure of #weather - the in-situ observations, the satellites and the numerical models originally developed for forecasting. #ClimateDiary
not being a #Climate scientist, I know a bit of controlling and communications strategy.
I think, the issue of the highly complex issue of the interdependent #TippingPoints that #TimLenton at the #UniversityOfExeter summarized* ought to be visualized and controlled (in a management-accounting meaning) for the educated public and politicians.
Probably, at least two layers would be needed (probably more fir cognitive reasons,) the top level showing all known (9?) #TippingPoints in a synopsis, grouped for degree of interdependence, and then the different climate drivers as a next drill-down level.
In a next level approach, the climate drivers would then be contrasted with (potential) remedies (e. g. solar panels,) including costs, that will mitigate or even solve these impacts.
In this way, global leaders will have a way of deciding where they will get the most...
