Climate Change Knowledge Cooperative Gains New Publisher Partners
The Climate Change Knowledge Cooperative, from Kudos and Impact Science, now features content from Elsevier, Springer Nature, Cambridge University Press, and CCC (Copyright Clearance Center). This brings the total number of partners to 17. They are “working together to make it easy for the general public to find key climate research, and understand its implications and recommendations.” The cooperative will go live during COP26 (United Nations Climate Change Conference).“As we approach COP26, there has never been such a vital time to help as many people as possible learn and benefit from the climate research we’ve published,” says Thea Sherer, director of sustainability and climate action officer at Springer Nature. “We know that research informs action, and the time to act on climate is now. We’re glad to be part of this joint initiative to encourage engagement with the research of today, for the climate solutions of tomorrow.” Peter Harrison, SVP of physical sciences journals and chairperson of the Climate Advisory Board at Elsevier, says, “Ensuring that science is communicated effectively and is heard and acted upon by the right people, is one of the greatest challenges facing those working in climate research today. Projects such as this help strengthen the trust between science and society that is needed to successfully take urgent action on climate.” For more information, read the blog post.
