The Heartland Institute partnered with the Germany-based European Institute for Climate and Energy (EIKE) to host the Eighth International Conference on Climate Change in Munich, Germany, November 30 - December 1, 2012. The event was also the Fifth International Conference on Climate and Energy. This is the second time The Heartland Institute has hosted a climate conference outside the United States. The fifth International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC-5) was held in Sydney, Australia in 2010.

Dr. S. Fred Singer, Heartland senior fellow and director of the Science and Environmental Policy Project, and Heartland Senior Fellow James M. Taylor joined many internationally renowned scientists for the first two-day ICCC-sponsored event in Europe.
