Geopolitical turmoil contributes to lower CO₂ emissions – but offers no lasting climate solution
Global CO₂ emissions from fossil fuels are projected to decrease by 0.4% in 2026 compared with 2025. This is largely attributed to the impact of the war in Iran on global energy markets. But can geopolitical shocks provide a sustainable solution to the climate crisis?
New Strategic Projects
The Bjerknes Center has four new strategic projects for the period 2026-2030, with the ambition to build something that lasts beyond the four project years.
Bringing El Niño into Focus
A new dashboard developed by researchers at the University of Bergen, the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research, and the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) helps users track how the world's media covers El Niño, and how that coverage compares with real-world climate events.
