Professor Johan Roskstrom

Johan Rockström is Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and Professor in Earth System Science at the University of Potsdam.

Johan Rockström is an internationally recognized scientist on global sustainability and Earth resilience. He led the development of the Planetary Boundaries framework for human development in the current era of rapid global change. He is deeply involved in research on the future trajectory of the Anthropocene and tipping points in the Earth system. With more than 25 years experience in applied water research in tropical regions, he is also a leading scientist on global water resources. Professor Rockström is a driving force behind myriad international scientific initiatives, including the Earth Commission and the Planetary Boundaries Science Initiative, as well as actively consulting on global sustainability issues for national and multilateral government organisations and business networks.

Professor Rockström values diverse perspectives and prioritises speaking at events that feature a balanced representation of genders and geographic regions, while also considering the environmental impact of his travel and the event itself.
Climate Scientist, professional cloud nerd, climate modeller and polar enthusiast. My PhD is in Antarctic climate change and I've worked in research across academia, the voluntary sector and start-ups. Research subjects include polar meteorology, cloud microphysics, extreme events and processes at the atmosphere-ice interface.
