Solid Sustainability Research

Based in

Netherlands
Europe

After 4 years in activism around the climate and biodiversity crises and migration issues, I decided to make research into these topics my full-time job. Solid Sustainability Research conducts action-oriented research around greenwashing, climate justice and migration.

Linda Knoester and I are two passionate researchers with experience in environmental science, finance, statistical analysis, software development and science communication. We use these skills to provide insight into various aspects of the climate and ecological crises, always firmly based on the facts.

Before starting work in research for the climate crisis I did my PhD in human-robot interaction at TU München and worked in space robotics research at the German Aerospace Centre and European Space Agency.
