Abstract
“Time is no longer on our side. What we continue to do, what we do that is new, and what we plan to do over the next 10 to 12 years will determine the future of humanity for the next 10,000.” Join us in a talk by Professor Sir David King on climate repair and his new initiative – the Cambridge Centre for Climate Repair.
Professor Sir David was the Foreign & Commonwealth Office’s Special Representative for Climate Change from 2013 until 2017. Previously he was UK Government’s Chief Scientific Adviser and Head of the Government Office of Science from October 2000 to 31 December 2007. In that time, he raised the profile of the need for governments worldwide to act on climate change and was instrumental in creating the new £1bn Energy Technologies Institute.
Free wine, beer, soft drinks and vegan food will be provided – with a great opportunity for networking after the talk.
