Climate Matters (University of Hamburg)
Starting as a climate debate Watchblog around the climate summit in Paris in 2015 (November 30 – December 12 2015), Climate Matters later evolved to cover ecological questions more broadly and follow the debates around socio-ecological transformations towards more sustainable societies.
We look at these debates through a lens of academic observers from social and climate sciences. Our blog posts—unlike research papers—also express opinions, personal values and broader ideas. Nevertheless, we draw our conclusions based on research related to climate journalism, social media debates, and public discourses on climate protests and climate justice.
We strive for utmost accuracy in our presentation of facts and research results. At the same time, however, the blog is also a forum for opinion that is by definition not value neutral. We openly support the protection of Earth’s ecosystems, the preservation of species, as well as the prosperity of human life—in future generations and across the globe. This blog is thus our contribution to the public debate, informed by our own and other people’s research.
