Global Temperature Report for 2024 - Berkeley Earth 2024 was the warmest year on Earth since direct observations began, and recent warming appears to be moving faster than expected.

"In Berkeley Earth’s analysis the global mean temperature in 2023 is estimated to have been 1.62 ±0.06 °C (2.91 ± 0.11 °F) above the average temperature from 1850-1900, a period often used as a pre-industrial baseline for global temperature targets." #climatecrisis berkeleyearth.org/global-tempe...

Economists Are in the Wilderness. Can They Find a Way Back to Influence? (Gift Article) Economists have long helped to shape policy on issues like taxes and health care. But flawed forecasts and arcane language have cost them credibility.

"Economists have long helped to shape policy on issues like taxes and health care. But flawed forecasts and arcane language have cost them credibility." What role could SCM research play to complement economic research? www.nytimes.com/2025/01/10/b... #economics #supplychainmanagement

Excited to share our new paper "Taking Academic Ownership of the Supply Chain Emissions Discourse" by Andreas Wieland and myself.

We call for Supply Chain Management scholars to actively engage with climate change mitigation and leverage their expertise.
