GEG6233 - Climate Change and Climate Policy 2024/25

The policy and societal response to the climate emergency requires a re-imagining and redesign of our infrastructure and behaviours. This module examines: 1) how we got to this point, from the Industrial Revolution to contemporary climate negotiations; 2) what the future will look like under different climate change scenarios; and 3) how the transition to net zero and our adaptations to increased climate risks need to be implemented in the UK and globally to manage this crisis adequately and fairly.
