This cluster investigates historical, biophysical, economic, societal, legal, and political aspects of climate change and their necessary transitions. We focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation, learn from the past for the future, and are interested in the transitional pathways towards a net zero society.
We investigate
- How does efficient and effective climate change mitigation and adaptation look like?
- What factors facilitate the societal transitions related to climate change in general, and to the net zero society in particular?
- How to motivate society to contribute to and accept societal transition?
- What can we learn from history to better cope with present and future challenges?
