I am a lucky man: I can spend my time and energy on something I believe in, and I think that this is a fair definition of happiness, at least in professional life. I help organise a conference on carbon content measurement, my research topic, and I know that it can make a large difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together with the IMF, the BIS, Eurostat, the Central Bank of Chile and the University of Oxford Blavatnik School of Government, the Bundesbank is organizing a workshop on “Carbon content measurement for products, organizations and aggregates: creating a sound basis for decision making.” Here is a link to the conference website.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concept of this workshop<\/a> is novel in two ways. First, the center stage will not be occupied by pre-prepared conference papers, but by a set of important questions that await solutions. And around sixty experts will try to come up with good answers. Second, the conference is hybrid in a special way. While the experts will interact personally, the results and the discussions will be broadcasted world-wide, allowing for online participation. Thus it is really two workshops: one is on-site and hands-on, the other is remote and with broad access. <\/p>\n\n\n

Analytical definition of output carbon content: direct emissions plus the carbon content of inputs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Without feasible and exact carbon content measurement, the efforts to bring emissions down cannot be successful in the end. The workshop will take place on 21-23 February 2023 in Hamburg, in the conference area Deutsche Bundesbank Regional Office in Hamburg. I am looking forward to it<\/em>, in a very literal sense! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Postscriptum, 24. December 2025: The workshop was a full success — people met, discussed and interacted and they found good solutions. See the link to the workshop contributions<\/a> and to a BIS paper summarizing the results<\/a>. And see the picture below — the small guy in front, that’s me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
