Climate Connect - online lecture series on planetary health behaviour

In the next Climate Connect dialogue we welcome John Peters, lawyer at Lawyers Günther Partnership in Hamburg, one of the most renowned law firms in the field of environmental, planning and climate protection law. He advises civil society organisations, affected parties and municipal actors on strategic climate action and the legal framework for effective climate protection.

In conversation with Professor Cornelia Betsch (Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour), we shed light on how environmental lawsuits workwhich challenges and dynamics they entail and what role role strategic climate lawsuits play in political change and social debates. play. Among other things, the IPB's ongoing research on future litigation provides an opportunity for this.

John Peters, a lawyer at Rechtsanwälte Günther Partnerschaft in Hamburg, advises on environmental, planning and climate protection law. He is committed to legal frameworks that promote climate protection in concrete terms.

More information on how to participate

The Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour at the University of Erfurt invites you to the next event in the ‘Climate Connect’ series. Guests include Professor Dr. Markus Reichstein (Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena) and Dr. Dominik Daube (scientist at the Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour).

This Climate Connect event will focus on dealing with extreme heat. The guest speaker will be Professor Dr. Markus Reichstein, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena. He develops AI-supported early warning systems that identify the risks of heat waves at an early stage based on climate data, soil moisture and changes in vegetation. In conversation with Dr Dominik Daube from the Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour, they discuss how AI-supported warning systems and research into heat protection behaviour can work together. Dominik Daube researches how people react to heat – and what role behaviour, communication and social factors play in effective protection. The aim of the event is to think about early warning and protective behaviour together.
