- Education
Climate change is no longer something that we can think of as a problem of the future or only a matter of concern elsewhere in the world – it is already with us and can be viewed as the defining global challenge of our age. Our current situation is undoubtedly worrying, but there is a great deal that can be done to mitigate the worst consequences of climate change, adapt to those that cannot be avoided, and secure as much remediation as possible now and into the far future. This includes action at all levels from the institutional to the individual and the global to the local.
In this episode, Professor Karen Morrow and Dr Victoria Jenkins with host Dr Sam Blaxland discuss global climate and environmental governance and what people and institutions can do to mitigate and adapt to the consequences of climate change.
