My work covers the following topics:

Earth & climate — Articles focusing on the current and future state of our planet and its climate. We explore the causes and consequences of anthropogenic climate change.

Energy — Energy is the driver behind our modern society. If we want to move towards a sustainable society, energy in the form of clean heating, transport, and electricity provision are key.

Policy — Climate change is a systemic and structural problem. Individual actions are important, but not enough. We need governmental action to solve the climate crisis.
