The Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research will be highlighting the Planetary Health Check 2025 as part of the Planetary Science Pavilion at COP30. 

From November 10–20, the Planetary Science Pavilion will be inside the blue zone, the beating heart of negotiations at COP30, hosting a dynamic lineup of sessions that connect cutting-edge research with real-world solutions. The opening day features well known scientists Johan Rockström and Carlos Nobre, who will kick off discussions on how science can guide urgent climate action. Throughout the week, sessions like “Amazon day” and “Biodiversity day” dive into the latest evidence on tipping points, carbon sinks, and strategies to keep us moving back inside the planetary boundaries safe operating space. Amazon Day on November 15 brings powerful voices from the region, highlighting the social, ecological, and health impacts of climate change in Brazil. 

Midweek, the Pavilion shifts focus to solutions to accelerating “positive tipping points” that support nature and reduce climate impacts. Sessions explore how emerging technologies, equitable policies, and Indigenous knowledge can reshape economies and restore Earth’s life-supporting systems. 

As the summit closes, the Pavilion turns toward the future: strengthening the science-policy interface, the roles of local communities, justice and showcasing global South leadership.
