Klaus is the founder of the Global Climate Forum. We take this event as an honor and a committment to pursue the mission he designed for our association:
bringing together researchers and practitioners to share discoveries and disagreements in a constructive way.
Carlo Jaeger's paper on “Klaus Hasselmann and Economics” has been published online on Nov. 3, ’22, by the
Journal of Physics: Complexity. It can be found here .
