Climate Change & Sustainability Essentials -2023 Edition, Develop an informed perspective on climate change, its causes and dangers, and what we can do about it.

Course Description

First-hand knowledge, from leading climate experts

Climate change is possibly the greatest challenge of our time, “the fight of our lives” in the words of the UN Secretary General at the COP26. We accept the scientific consensus that climate change is real, and that it is related to human actions. Beyond that – the picture becomes blurry. How bad is it? How fast is it happening? What are the probable consequences, and what can we do to mitigate them?

To take action, we need a clear perspective. We must listen to scientists to develop a more accurate understanding of the key issues, take a stand and make informed decisions.
