SUMMARY:'Our Critical Decade for Climate Action' Conference: Tynall Centre\, UEA\, Norwich
DESCRIPTION:To mark the 25th anniversary of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research\, the University of East Anglia (UEA)\, which leads the Tyndall Centre\, is holding its largest ever climate conference. Many of the brightest minds on climate change are attending to discuss the ‘critical decade for climate action’ ahead of us and to discuss what university research needs to happen in the next five years that is truly useful for climate change action. \nThe Tyndall Centre an interdisciplinary and policy-relevant climate change research centre. It is a partnership of universities led by UEA that was set up in 2000 to conduct cutting-edge\, interdisciplinary research\, bringing together researchers from the social and natural sciences with engineering to develop sustainable responses to climate change. It works with leaders from the public and private sectors to promote informed decision-making on mitigating and adapting to climate change. \nThe planet and its people are at a crossroads. The coming decade is critical if we are to achieve the progress necessary to address the climate challenge. \nThe four research themes to be addressed at the conference are: \nIdentifying the emergent and urgent transitions in this ‘critical decade’ \nUnderstanding the different constellations of options that could align our emissions with the Paris temperature and equity commitments \nHighlighting the barriers and enablers to delivering climate action at scale \nHow to build and sustain coalitions for action in an increasingly fragmented and climate-changed world \n  \nThe line-up of speakers is a ‘Who’s Who?’ of thought leadership on climate change- \n\nGoneri de Cozannet\, French High Council for the Climate\nDaniela Jacob\, Director of Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS)\nNigel Topping CMG\, Ambition Loop\, UK Climate Change Committee\, UN High Level Champion COP26\nHenry Neufedlt\, Head of Climate Change Unit\, World Agroforestry Centre\, Nairobi\nLorraine Whitmarsh MBE\, Director of Climate and Social Transitions\, University of Bath\nJason Lowe\, Head of Climate Services\, Met Office Hadley Centre and University of Leeds\nSandra Boegelein\, Lead Analysis People and Net Zero\, UK Climate Change Committee\nTom Crompton\, co-Director\, Common Cause Foundation\nJim Hall\, Fellow of the Royal Society\, President of the Royal Institution of Civil Engineering and Environmental Change institute\, University of Oxford\nPaul Ekins OBE\, University College\, London\nCatherine Mitchell\, Prof Energy Policy\, University of Exeter\nLindsey-Marie Armstrong\, School of Mechanical Engineering\, University of Southampton\nMary Barker\, School of Health Sciences and School of Environmental Sciences\, University of Southampton\nSaffron O’Neil\, Co-Director of the Centre for Climate Communication and Data Science\, University of Exeter\nHelen Adams\, Lead of Maximising UK Adaptation to Climate Change Hub\, Kings College London\nRob Wilby\, Prof Hydroclimatic Modelling\, University of Loughborough\nNeil Adger\, Dept of Geography\, University of Exeter\nSuraje Dessai\, Prof Climate Adaptation\, University of Leeds\nAlice Larkin\, Prof Climate Science and Energy Policy\, University of Manchester\nKevin Anderson\, Prof Energy and Climate Change\, University of Manchester\n\n  \nBook your place at the conference here.
