We are thrilled to introduce our new interactive self-guiding quiz about the dashboard! This engaging tool offers clear, structured demonstrations and encourages exploration of project results, helping adaptation planners and policy makers to understand climate overshoot science in an interactive way.
A recent policy brief highlights the critical dangers of exceeding the 1.5°C warming limit set by the Paris Agreement.
The work led by Carl-Friedrich Schleussner, details the irreversible damage overshoot could cause to ecosystems, biodiversity, and resources, emphasizing the need for immediate mitigation.

The consequences of climate change and extreme weather are already upon us, and we must address them, whether we are municipalities, urban planners, banks, insurance companies, homeowners, or something else entirely. But how can climate risk be transformed into an opportunity?

Unlock vital data with the PROVIDE Climate risk dashboard, an innovative tool offering local and global climate impact insights tailored for adaptation planners. Watch our new video to learn how this dashboard can enhance your urban and regional climate adaptation strategies.
A new version of the PROVIDE Climate Risk Dashboard has been launched! New data on glacier retreat, biodiversity loss and the impacts of heat stress on people in cities has been added. Explore the tool to find out how the climate crisis could affect you.
Climate impacts are hitting hard around the world, as communities are struggling to cope with the intensity of flooding, fires and heat. In this webinar, scientists will present new findings on future impacts of climate change we could avoid by reducing our emissions today. There will be a particular focus on heat extremes, species loss, glacier loss and hits to labour productivity. Experts in relevant fields will join a panel discussion to discuss the findings, followed by a Q&A.

Due to the great housing shortage in Berlin, densification between existing buildings is urgently needed. The previous residents often protest because they fear worse living conditions: less space, more heat. How this could be done in a climate-friendly way has now been investigated by PROVIDE partner Climate Analytics.

In this virtual launch event, PROVIDE research on urban climate projections for cities will be presented and the new version of the PROVIDE Climate Risk Dashboard tool demonstrated. This innovative webtool allows practitioners and policy makers to access information on risks of future climate impacts and how to avoid them.
This demo video shows which features and functionalities the PROVIDE Climate Risk Dashboard offers to its users. It explains how to use this webtool and to explore future climate change impacts and how to avoid them.
The new version of the PROVIDE Climate Risk Dashboard tool has been launched end of January 2024. This innovative webtool allows practitioners and policy makers to access information on risks of future climate impacts and how to avoid them.

COP28 just started in Dubai and the WMO released its provisional report on the 2023 climate status. Thomas Frölicher commented in the SRF news.
On 8 Dec. 2023, 13:00, the PROVIDE side event at the Cryosphere Pavilion at COP28 will showcase research on policy-relevant climate overshoot scenarios, where temperatures would temporarily exceed 1.5°C before being brought back down below 1.5°C at the end of the century. This explores impacts associated with such trajectories, and if, as emissions descend, impacts could be reversed. Adaptation practitioners and civil society members will join for discussion about what overshoot would mean for the cryosphere, and how that could inform climate action today.
Panelists: Prof. Carl-Friedrich Schleussner (Humboldt University Berlin), Dr Fahad Saeed (WCS), Prof. Fabien Maussion (University of Bristol / Innsbruck) and Kaisa Kosonen (Greenpeace)
PROVIDE successfully hosted a webinar on 8th September 2023, looking at climate overshoot. It featured presentations and expert discussion on what the latest science suggests overshoot of 1.5°C could look like, what the implications are for our planet and societies, and how this should inform climate action today.
Climate action is accelerating, but greenhouse gas emissions are yet to peak. This webinar is looking at climate overshoot, will feature presentations and expert discussion on what the latest science suggests overshoot of 1.5°C could look like, what the implications are for our planet and societies, and how this should inform climate action today.
An in-person workshop for EU level policy makers will be held in Brussels on 6 September 2023 to share knowledge on overshoot in the context of adaptation, explore the PROVIDE Overshoot Proofing Methodology, and introduce the Climate Risk Dashboard. Consortium members will be in attendance to lead discussion and take up feedback. If you have interest, or know someone who may be appropriate for these conversations.

Temporarily overshooting climate targets is a distinct possibility given our current emissions trajectory. It is crucial that we understand which of the associated impacts are reversible, and to what extent.
