Chair: Professor Emily Shuckburgh (@emilyshuckburgh), Director of Cambridge Zero

Speakers:

Dr Alison Ming (@alisonming), atmospheric scientist and Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellow

Dr Lynn Dicks (@LynnDicks), conservation scientist and leader of the Agroecology Research Group in the Department of Zoology

Join us LIVE to watch University of Cambridge experts reflect on recent extreme weather events across the world, and recommend short- and long-term policy responses. 

Across Europe, the USA, East Asia and Australasia, extreme weather is becoming increasingly frequent. Record temperatures, wildfires, floods and violent storms are no longer freak events.  

Speakers will discuss the long-term impacts of these alarming changes on the environment and the economy, how governments should respond, and what the opportunities are for a greener, resilient future that delivers Net Zero and economic growth. 

The panel will answer your questions and discuss how the different disciplines of economics, conservation and climate science are all tackling the big questions.
