Cambridge Climate Lecture Series chaired by Dr Hugh Hunt

Following its successful launch last year, the Cambridge Climate Lecture Series is back in 2018 with the theme "Climate Change Is Now". Its aim is to dramatically increase the level of public interest and engagement on the topic of climate change. We hope that everyone will find something of interest, but we are particularly keen to interact with a younger audience who will have to deal with these issues in the decades ahead.

The lecture format will feature guest speakers who will each present their take on a particular aspect of climate change within 2018's theme. There will be a strong emphasis not only on the current state of our global climate, but on what possible solutions exist and on the actions we need to take.
