Much of my week at #IPCC61 was spent with the Committee to push thru the outline of the @IPCC ##SRCities. It was the science-policy interface in its truest expression, provoking qns on the nature of science, expertise, process & climate politics. Mind is blown.
APPROVED!! What a privelege it has been to guide the dedicated Scientific Steering Committee to develop the now approved outline of the upcoming @IPCC_CH Special Report on Cities and Climate Change!.
