The “Trump administration” from the “United States of America” (USA) again acknowledges global warming with its politics towards “Greenland” and its interest in dominating the arctic region (cf. Baumann, K. 2025/04/29: “Trump administration acknowledges global warming“). The “Trump administration” expects melting ice shields due to global warming and thus sees…

Global warming is out of “human control”. What comes next?
With full recognition of the work carried out by millions of committed leaders, scientists, and institutions – among them the United Nations, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the World Meteorological Organization, and the International Energy Agency – one conclusion is now unavoidable. After 30 years of “UN Climate Change…

The new way to successful mitigation of global warming
With all the greatest respect and acknowledgment to millions of courageous, forward-looking, foresighted, considerate and conscious leaders and decision makers within countless wonderful organisations like the “United Nations” (UN), “The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change” (IPCC), “World Meteorological Organization” (WMO), the “International Energy Agency” (IEA) and many, many more taking…

IDGR works out the currently by far most important graph for humanity
Ahead of the 2025 “Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change” (COP30), heaving read e.g. the fantastic contributions “UNEP – Emissions Gap Report 2025: Off target. Continued collective inaction puts global temperature goal at risk” and the “WMO – State of the Climate Update…

UN “Climate Summit 2025” shows strong demand for global democracy
While the new “Planetary Health Check 2025. A Scientific Assessment of the State of the Planet.” impressively shows 3 so called “planetary boundaries” within the “high risk zone” (introduction of novel entities, modification of biogeochemical flows, change in biosphere integrity), 1 within “high risk zone” and “increasing risk” (climate change),…

What happens after reaching the “1.5°C climate tipping point” in 2029?
Inspired by the fantastic contribution “Climate science is clearer than ever. How should companies respond?” (World Economic Forum, Radio Davos, 2025/08/25), I want to clarify three in my view most important points.

Mitigating global warming is too big to fail
There is a storm coming up, a very big storm, and a deadly storm. Indications multiply towards a so far significantly underestimated speed and intensity of global warming, according to that a significantly underestimated impact of climate change, and a significantly underestimated loss of biodiversity. What we need now is…

2025 “OPEC International Seminar” shows fundamental misunderstanding within (global) politics
There is this fundamental misunderstanding from (global) politics, corporations would act in the “common interest”. No. Corporations act to maximise their individual profits and will use all legal possibilities to achieve this goal. Adam Smith (1723-1790), the “father of capitalism”, was already aware of and very clear about that. Having…

Global warming is like a shark attack
(Global) Politics failed to keep global warming within the 1.5°C (physical) limit and we think, global warming is still significantly underestimated, since we expect an exponential temperature rise (cf. “Temperature rise will be exponential“). Let us keep this simple. This is not a matter of even more or better data….

How to actually mitigate global warming
Flooding in Kerr County, Texas, United States of America (USA), heat waves in Europe with burning forests, an entire village buried in Switzerland. We see dead people, wining & praying politicians. No, God will not mitigate global warming! Are these catastrophes related to global warming – yes, of course! Global…
