The Annual Conference of the European Meteorological Society was held in Barcelona from September 2-6. This year the theme of the conference was “The role of weather and climate research in the achievement of a climate-neutral Europe.” In the perspective of a sustainable and climate-neutral Europe, the role of weather and climate research is crucial. To address the pressing challenges of climate change, our society needs to adopt informed decision-making processes and innovative solutions. The goal of the conference is to explore the role of weather and climate research in shaping policies, strategies and technologies that will pave the way toward a climate-neutral society.
