Climate change: understanding the causes and solutions

Cursus

Omschrijving

“Urgent climate action can secure a liveable future for all”, said the IPCC at its latest report release in March 2023. But what are the drivers causing climate change and threatening a liveable future? And how can such “urgent climate action” be brought about? In this course you learn about the scientific basis of climate change. You learn to quantify viable technology pathways that can realize fast, deep and economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions reductions. And you learn to design strategies to speed up the implementation of climate solutions. Strategies that incorporate the multiple (socio, economic, techno) factors that affect implementation of climate solutions. The setup of the course is a mixture of interactive lectures and multi-disciplinary group work in which you design and model a zero-CO2 emissions pathway for the Netherlands and design a strategy to enhance the implementation of a real life climate solution.
