We inhabit a planet in great peril. Climate change is already altering lives and landscapes, and is set to cause enormous suffering without radical action. How do we limit and adapt to it, and what are the right approaches when national governments and multilateral bodies aren’t moving – or can’t move – fast enough? In terms of the environment more broadly, how do we conserve biodiversity and remedy pollution? These are all burning questions for leaders and citizens alike, and many members of the Blavatnik School community are grappling with what is arguably the number one challenge of the 21st century.
