Four PIK scientists contribute to the conference with talks and presentations in the science track. Robert Gieseke and Sven Willner will introduce climate science and solutions with a "Hacker´s guide to climate change". Benjamin Bodirsky shows how agriculture, land use and diets are linked and what methods climate researchers use to develop projections for the future. Jonathan Donges talks about the challenge of integrating social-technological dynamics into Earth system analysis to gain robust scenarios for the future of the planet.
The Chaos Communication Congress is organized by the Chaos Computer Club (CCC), Europe´s biggest association of hackers. CCC contains a number of decentralized chapters and groups and is very active in the fields of information technology, networks, IT security, the maker scene and more generally the critical yet creative use of technology and its impacts on society.
