#Didyouknow that the world knows about the #climatecrisis since 1965? That’s the year when climate scientists such as Roger Revelle and Charles Keeling summarized the risks associated with rising #carbon concentrations in a report for President Johnson. #co2 #climate #engaging

#Didyouknow that we may have silently surpassed a #tippingpoint? The last #IPCC report states that we may have surpassed the transition of the #Amazone into a savanna, due to #globalwarming and sustained #deforestation in the Amazone – and unstoppable, hence a tipping point.

Did you know that scientists can pinpoint that the excess CO2, which we have in the atmosphere since industrialization, must stem from the burning of fossil fuels? It’s clear that it stems from plants dead for a long time = fossil fuels. #didyouknow #CO2 #engaging #climatechange

#Didyouknow the #atmosphere is just 8 km heigh, if compressed to normal pressure everywhere? No wonder it’s possible for us to enrich it with greenhouse gases.

Did you know that the last CO2-concentration deemed safe by some climate scientists to avoid the tipping points was 350 ppm? Today, we are at over 420 ppm.

Did you know that the difference in global mean temperature between the last Ice Age and pre-industrial times was just about 5°C? We have already added another +1,1°C, and are on a track for another 4-5°C by the end of the century, which some scientists name “Hothouse Earth”

We are happy to announce that from July 6–9, 2025, we will host a Summer School in Fulpmes, focusing on climate change #education and critical thinking. Teachers from across Europe will explore our Tutorials and exchange ideas.

Our Tutorials on #CriticalThinking in #ClimateChange were successfully conducted at four universities, with enthusiastic student participation and valuable feedback. We appreciate their engagement and look forward to refining our Tutorials even further!
#engaging #tutorial

We are happy to share our 10 finalized Climate Change Tutorials!
Developed over 2 years, they’re now available in English, German & Dutch.
The tutorials are ready-to-use in the classroom and can be downloaded as fillable PDFs, editable Word, or ODT files:
