Rockström, who is Chair of the Earth League, also led their annual meeting of the panel in New Delhi. As voluntary international alliance of prominent scientists from world-class research institutions, the meeting brought together leading sustainability researchers from all over the world like Leena Srivastava from India, Peter Schlosser from the USA, Hironori Hamanaka from Japan and other eminent Earth League members and guests.
New insights from climate science were also in the center of the Science Circle Lecture Rockström und Rahmstorf held at the German Embassy in New Delhi. Discussing recent warming spikes like last summer and record-breaking temperature years like 2017, 2016 and 2015, the researchers explained how and to what extent recent extreme weather events like heat waves, flash floods and tropical cyclones are caused by human-caused climate change.
