COP29 Azerbaijan kicks off next week, bringing world leaders, businesses and activists together to discuss the world’s response to the climate crisis. As the UK’s greenest university, we’ll obviously be watching closely 👀 Reading’s Interdisciplinary Research Centre, The The Walker Institute , is one of fourteen ‘My Climate Risk’ Regional Hubs around the world and holds ‘Official Observer’ status at COP29. To help you understand what’s going on, and why it matters, Walker have brought together doctoral students with specialisms from ice sheet modelling and wildfires, to regenerative farming, marine biology and much more to attend livestreamed sessions remotely, and create videos, blogs and commentary as part of a Climate Action Studio (COPCAS) to make sense of negotiations, so you don’t have to! To meet the team, and stay up to date with goings on make sure you keep checking out the COPCAS website throughout the fortnight: https://rdg.ac/3Gk21BG
