<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">We got several requests to record tomorrow’s seminar talk, </span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">some people won’t be able to attend but they are interested in this topic. </span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><br class="">
</span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">So we will try to record the talk, but not the Q&A part. </span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class="">The recorded video won’t be released public, and only shared with individual who expressed an interest in the topic but couldn't join to listen to the talk directly. </span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-size: 14px;" class=""><br class="">

<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">On Friday January 15 at 10:30 we will have the next Astronomy Seminar, remotely via zoom.</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><br class="">
</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">Our speaker is Matthias Samland from the Stockholm University.</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><br class="">
</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">Title: Astronomy's above average contribution to global heating. An astronomical institute's CO2 footprint.</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;"><br class="">
</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">Abstract: With weather and climate extremes increasing both in frequency and intensity each year, it is becoming increasingly apparent to the population at large that prediction’s from climate scientists
are not depicting a far future, but are already under way and accelerating. The Paris Climate Agreement to limit global heating to under 1.5°C (an acceptable level of “doom”: e.g., at least only ~95% of corrals reefs will die and not all of them) was decided
5 years ago. This goal requires for society to quickly transition away from producing greenhouse gas emissions in all areas of life, including, of course, research.</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">I’ve been involved in the the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy’s (MPIA) Sustainability Group over the last years before coming to Stockholm and we have looked in detail at the carbon footprint of astronomy,
viewed at the level of one astronomical institute. Understanding the distribution of CO2 impacts of different activities commonly undertaken by researchers (flying, computing, infrastructure, telescope operation) has to be the evidence basis for actually achieving
carbon neutrality in time to prevent catastrophic levels of warming in the climate system. Climate change in turn has a catastrophic impact on astronomy itself as evidences by, for example, increasigly worse conditions at previously optimal observation sites.</span></div>
<div class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 14px;">This assessment has to be repeated yearly and combined with an actual path of emission reductions and a concrete plan to achieve said goals. Knowing the CO2 footprint of an institute is only the first step
towards this goal, but incredibly important. In this talk I will walk you through the example of what we are, and have been, doing at MPIA, but many of the same conclusions will be applicable to institute’s world-wide. These activities have been put into motion
by students and staff and are proof that involvement in this topic can lead to real change. As such this talk is intended to spark a discussion and also be a discussion.</span></div>
