German #newspaper “Berliner Morgenpost” made a playful #visualisation about the personal #climate budget - it shows vividly where individuals quickly reach their limits and why politics urgently needs to act. There even is an interactive version: https://interaktiv.morgenpost.de/co2-budget-pro-kopf-testen-klimawandel/ #infographics #climatechange
CO2 Budget pro Kopf: Was passt noch rein? Persönlicher Klima-Test

CO2-Budget pro Kopf: Was passt da noch rein, um den Klimawandel zu bremsen. Probieren Sie es aus - mit dem persönlichen Klima-Test.

@florin This is a great #visualization. The recent #IPCC report by WGIII identifies 60 actions (see figure) to change individual consumption and mobility choices with largest potential to reduce our carbon footprint.

I wrote a thread on twitter on this early this year:

“About 2/3 of global GHG emissions are associated with household consumption. Shifting our individual consumption patterns to low-carbon alternatives is prerequisite for emission reductions. So, what can each of us do to broaden own participation in climate action? 1/n”

About 2/3 of global #GHG emissions are associated with #household #consumption.

Shifting our individual consumption patterns to low-#carbon alternatives is prerequisite for #emission reductions.

Each of us can do a lot to broaden own participation in #climate action!

The post I am replying to has a great figure showing the potential impact (box-and-whisker plots) on #CO2 emissions of a variety of demand-side household activities.

There are three groups of activities: avoid (e.g., less driving, less paper use), improve (e.g., heat pump, recycle), and shift (e.g., to public transport, to organic foods). The plots include a region where CO2 emissions are reduced, and a region where CO2 emissions may actually increase due to the behavior (rebound effect).
