We are currently not only facing a very serious climate crisis\, but also a crisis of knowledge related to a heating planet. Scientific data have been collected and interpreted for decades. The data are published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on a frequent scale. However\, it appears as if that theoretical and scientific knowledge is by no means sufficient for initiating a successful politics of climate protection or even to spur individual or collective action desperately needed in order to achieve climate goals.
\nThis workshop brings together scientists and philosophers with the aim of producing an interdisciplinary and new body of knowledge. It \;will be focused (a) on the generation of climate knowledge that helps to translate data into accessible models and languages that might unfold action-guiding force\; and we (b) wish to discuss how abstract climate knowledge can be reframed so that motivational problems can be resolved. Both aspects are desperately needed in order to build bridges from natural sciences to applicable and motivationally inspiring knowledge.
