Speaker: Dr Audun Botterud, Principal Research Scientist, Laboratory for Decisions and Information Systems, MIT

We find ourselves at a pivotal point in history for the long-term sustainability of our society and biome. It would be so easy to have a negative view about the future i.e. climate change is slowly baking us all to death. Last year alone was pretty intense - 1/3 of pakistan was flooded last year and arctic storms ravaged the US.

CRASSH research networks – what, why and how?

• Are you considering applying for a research network at CRASSH?
• Are you looking to find out how your existing network can develop in the future?

This symposium will explore the interconnectedness of our planetary and public health and its associations to inequality, (in)accessibility to sustainable solutions and tech, and the short- and long-term consequences of climate change on health, among other things.

As King's College marks the installation of solar panels on its iconic chapel, the Provost of King's and the Dean of the Chapel warmly invite you to hear Nigel Topping, UN Climate Champion, share his outlook for renewable energy, climate change, COP28 and the ‘greening’ of our buildings new and old.

In this symposium researchers will talk about the governance, policy, and economics of climate change and energy transitions with a specific (but not exclusive) focus on recent developments in these areas in light of the upcoming COP28 Climate Summit.

This month UKERC will open applications for an inclusive writing retreat to provide energy researchers with the time and space to work on publications. This event is one of our EDI Goals for 2023 and aims to help diversify the authorship of publications in energy research.

As a versatile energy carrier and chemical building block, the role of hydrogen in a next zero world is widely recognised.

Through a series of collaborative experiments with partners, the UK Energy Research Centre’s (UKERC) Public Engagement Observatory is actively exploring how new approaches to mapping diverse forms of public engagement across systems can make a difference in practice to energy and climate-related decisions, innovations and new f
