Careering ahead
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 03 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01876-1 Societal transition to address climate change will require many changes. As society adapts and transforms, the labour market will be altered as some established areas of employment will disappear and new areas will emerge that will need workers. Nature Climate Change

Putting human rights in the centre
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01850-x The global loss and damage fund is essential to provide support for climate-impacted groups and help their local initiatives for adaptation. Now, research focusing on the Vanuatu population highlights the necessity to put human rights as a central consideration for loss and damage fund agendas. Nature Climate…
The need to operationalize climate modelling
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01849-4 Climate models have evolved from research tools to underpin decision-making across the globe. To provide optimal value for society in the future, the models need to be made operational. Nature Climate Change
How energy transition affects jobs
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01830-1 Concrete analysis of job impacts is needed to inform efforts for a just transition. Now, a study finds that decarbonizing US electricity generation will create jobs, but with uneven distribution among states, industrial sectors and skill needs. Nature Climate Change
Using a human rights lens to understand and address loss and damage
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01831-0 Climate change is a major human rights challenge. This research shows how climate change is impeding the human rights of Ni-Vanuatu, outlines what can be done in response, and discusses how the future loss and damage fund should consider human rights restoration and compensation packages.

Thunderstorm straight line winds intensify with climate change
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01852-9 Non-tornadic thunderstorm winds are associated with particularly strong damages. Here, the author assesses changes in these winds in the central USA and shows that they have intensified stronger than other extreme winds over the past decades, while the affected area increased 4.8-fold.

Distributional labour challenges and opportunities for decarbonizing the US power system
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01802-5 The low-carbon transition would bring both challenges and opportunities for the labour market, which have important implications for a just transition. In the US power system, the lowest-skilled workers in fossil fuel-dependent states will face more uncertain employment and job training will be necessary. Nature Climate Change

Estimating vanishing allowable emissions for 1.5 °C
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01846-7 The remaining carbon budget for 1.5 °C has been a highly discussed tool to communicate the urgency of efforts needed to meet the Paris Agreement. Now, research reassesses IPCC estimates, suggesting that ongoing near-flat emissions and methodological choices can make big relative differences to the tiny…

Climate change is impacting nutritional security from seafood
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01823-0 Global warming and overfishing are impacting fish species distribution, total catch and aquaculture viability, limiting our ability to harvest vital micronutrients that support human health.

Embedding climate change education into higher-education programmes
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01847-6 Climate education is seen as a key driver for behavioural change, yet it is usually not continued universally to higher-education level. With the increasing demand from both students and employers, we propose methods that incorporate climate education from multiple disciplines into current curriculums. Nature Climate Change
Realizing the social value of impermanent carbon credits
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01815-0 Nature-based solutions are essential to avoid climate crisis, yet how best to estimate their long-run effects is unclear. Here the authors propose a new dynamic accounting method that captures the impermanence of these carbon impacts, allowing investors to make robust comparisons across projects. Nature Climate Change
Assessing the size and uncertainty of remaining carbon budgets
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01848-5 The remaining carbon budget (RCB) is a critical estimate of the carbon that can be emitted while staying within a particular temperature threshold. This study provides an updated assessment of the RCB using recent data and robustness checks to increase confidence in the estimate. Nature Climate Change
Climate change exacerbates nutrient disparities from seafood
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 30 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01822-1 The authors use fisheries databases and predictive models to understand past and future changes in the availability of iron, calcium omega-3 and protein from seafood. They show disproportional loss of nutrients in tropical low-income countries, which will be exacerbated by higher levels of global warming. Nature Climate…

Committed future ice-shelf melt
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 23 October 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01817-y The collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is a worrying climate tipping point, with the potential to raise global sea level by up to 5.3 metres. Now, an assessment of future climate scenarios suggests that accelerated melting of ice shelves in West Antarctica is locked…
