Title: Climate change and 2 degrees: Is the Parisian Emperor naked?
Abstract:
The Paris Agreement was heralded by many as a triumph of international diplomacy, delivering an unprecedented covenant amongst world leadersto take action to hold “the increase in … temperature to well below 2°C… and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C.
This presentation will outline the successes and failures of the Paris process. It will argue that the real challenge now facing contemporary society, is to acknowledge that our abject failure to mitigate emissions has transformed climate change into an issue of profound and rapid ‘system change’. Only when we are sufficiently humble to conceded this, will we beequipped to begin shaping our post-carbon paradigm.
Föredraget följs av eftersits med lätt förtäring och dryckerAnmälan senast måndagen den 14 februari till Matthias Mohr.
