🌍 H2020 EU project developing the next-generation of Earth system models in support of the Paris Agreement.
From groundbreaking research to policymaking & education.

By this time yesterday, we were seeing everyone again for the Climate Research Communication Network 6th Meeting!

We kept doing what this network does best:connect project/comm managers & DEC people from EU climate projects so we don’t all reinvent the wheel &so we can amplify each other’s work💪🌍

Day 3. GA's last morning: Wrap-up & perspectives with @rolandseferian.bsky.social and others.

4.5 years together. In a little over a month the project ends. Today we celebrate what we built in science and in community.

#ESM2025inToulouse is over.

Night two, conference diner: Toulouse turns theatrical.
Dinner at Halle de la Machine, with a private "Real Machinists show" just before. Only who was here can tell the tale. 🦾🍽️🔥

We’re now following a set of presentations from Core Theme 3 — Linking ESMs & IAMs 🧵👇

CT3 is where we connected ESM and IAM communities to work together on improving robustness of mitigation choices.
