Climate Change: Making sense of the science
This event addresses the science of climate change and touch on some of the solutions, including how surface warming increases with the amount of carbon we emit, as well as how the Arctic is changing, how the land ecosystem is responding, and how we need to move forward on decarbonisation. The panel will consider how we can move the climate agenda forward, including activities on both an international and a more local scale.
