"Another opportunity created by climate #attribution science is the potential to quantify the *future* #ClimateDamage of proposed fossil fuel projects.
Just as fossil fuel companies seek to avoid responsibility for #ClimateChange damages caused by historical emissions, companies also work to trivialise the future contributions of new coal, gas, and oil projects when seeking development approvals."

"Attribution studies calculate whether, and by how much, climate change affected the intensity, frequency or impact of extremes – from wildfires in the US and drought in South Africa through to record-breaking rainfall in Pakistan and typhoons in Taiwan. To keep track of this rapidly growing field of research, Carbon Brief has mapped every published study on how climate change has influenced extreme weather." https://interactive.carbonbrief.org/attribution-studies/index.html
