🌪️🌍 Benieuwd hoe het weer van vandaag eruit zou zien in het verleden en in de toekomst? Wij werken aan nieuwe methode ‘Future Weather’, waarbij we met behulp van klimaatmodellen het weer van vandaag in een kouder en warmer klimaat nabootsen. Met deze techniek kunnen we beter begrijpen hoe klimaatverandering ons weer beïnvloedt en hoe we ons hierop kunnen voorbereiden. 🔗 knmi.nl/over-het-knmi/nieuws/h #earlywarning

Its the #moral #responsibility of #government"
