When working on the IPCC’s Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C (2018), summarizing the state of scientific knowledge on the climate crisis and the SDGs, we made a concerted effort to release the quantitative scenario data supporting the assessment in line with the FAIR principles and publish analysis scripts to generate statistics, figures and tables under an open-source license.

It is exciting that the slogan “We have 12 years!“ (even though it is a simplification of the report) is based on my work. And even though most people will never dive into the scenario data and study the Python code – I’m proud that if they wanted to, they could!
