Guest post: Why cities need more than just air conditioning for extreme heat - Carbon Brief

While air conditioning may be appropriate in certain contexts research has shown that a universal focus on technical solutions risks deepening inequality

Why is it often so hard to imagine the future adapting to climate change? 💡We explore how "urban adaptation imaginaries" can help connect present realities with future possibilities. 👥 @imagineadapt.bsky.social @martaolazabal.bsky.social @atamorimmaia.bsky.social @urbanstudiesjournal.com

IMAGINE Adaptation@imagineadapt.bsky.social · last yr.

Hello, Bluesky! 🌍✨ Only by understanding what good #adaptation looks like can we think of how to evaluate it. In IMAGINE Adaptation, we explore this through art-science collaborations, work with 12 #urban areas worldwide, and much more! Follow & learn more: imagineadapt.bc3research.org

NEW – Guest post: More than 70% of adaptation plans for European cities are ‘inconsistent’ ✍️ Dr Diana Reckien, Dr Attila Buzási, @martaolazabal.bsky.social, Dr Paris Fokaides, Dr Filomena Pietrapertosa, @peckersley.bsky.social‬ and Dr Monica Salvia Read here ➡️ buff.ly/ywOyxnt

In our new @natclimate.nature.com, we examine how internal policy (in)consistency is a key — and often underestimated — contributor to the adaptation gap 🌡️⚠️: when adaptation efforts fail to meet adaptation needs. Check it out! 👀 rdcu.be/elElX 🤩With www.lcp-initiative.eu inc. @peckersley.bsky.social

"Our hope is that this contribution, along with the next steps taken by the adaptation community, will serve as a pivotal moment for funders and stakeholders, encouraging them to recognize and support the cognitive and time-intensive processes involved in our transdisciplinary efforts" Enjoy it! 🤓

Great new article by @martaolazabal.bsky.social @sean-p-goodwin.bsky.social et al Barriers to climate adaptation include 1. search for universal truths 2. failure to integrate different perspectives and knowledges 3. tendency to simplify what is a complex process doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

These policies in Spain are taking steps to center climate action around people, empathy, and lived experiences. Excited to learn more from projects like these and discuss with you all. Thanks @martaolazabal.bsky.social for sharing this work. news.mongabay.com/short-articl...

👋Hello Bsky crew! What better way to start my journey here than by telling you all about this 😍beautiful article we just got published in Ambio, led by @sean-p-goodwin.bsky.social. It is inspired by many conversations in our IMAGINE Adaptation project, that hopefully will be soon in this space too.

1/ 🚨NEW PAPER ALERT (OPEN ACCESS)🚨 What comes to mind when you hear "climate change adaptation"? ⛈️ Many think of softened blows from hazards. But when I asked MERL experts on urban nature-based solutions during my PhD, their unexpected answers reshaped my perspective. (doi.org/10.1007/s132...)
