Climate: Saved by the pandemic?
With 2020 drawing to a close, Dr. Camilla Bausch was invited to contribute to "The World in 2021". This publication is an annual end-of-year publication by ISPI, a leading foreign policy think tank in Italy, on trends, crises and 10 key "questions" that are relevant for the upcoming year.
As one of ISPI [2]'s flagship publications, past contributors include Italy's former Prime Minister Romano Prodi [3] and Brookings President John R. Allen [4].
Camilla Bausch's contribution, published in English [5] and Italian [6] looks at the interlinkages between two global crises: the Corona pandemic and global heating.
Dr. Bausch's contribution was supported by the Stiftung Mercator [7]. The author would like to thank Benjamin Görlach [8], R. Andreas Kraemer [9] and Willem van Rijn [10] for their editorial support.
