What should leadership look like in these times of unprecedented global change? How can successful leadership mitigate a climate catastrophe? Where are we now - on the road to ruin or is there hope on the horizon?

Join Scientists Warning Europe and a panel of experts to hear what we need to see from leadership - at all levels - to respond to the climate crisis.

At COP26 Scientists Warning Europe launched a new paper, the 'Scientists Warnings into Action'. It expanded on the six stressors identified in the previous three warnings of Nature, Population, Economy, Energy, Food and Pollutants and added an essential seventh element: 'Leadership'.

This fourth great scientists Warning has already been signed by over 3,000 scientists and is currently collecting more signatures by graduates in any science on the way to COP27.

This event features two of the authors of the paper. Along with other eminent friends of Scientists Warning Europe, they will present and review the vital element of Leadership and look at what leaders should be doing at the local, regional, national and global level.

The panel will also examine the question of what we can each do as individuals to ensure effective climate leadership.

Panellists include:

• Ed Gemmell - Managing Director of Scientists Warning Europe, Climate Politician
• Professor Lorenzo Fioramonti - Political Scientist and Professor at University of Pretoria, Member of Italian Parliament, Co-Author of the Scientists Warnings into Action paper.
• Dr Victoria Hurth - Visiting Fellow, University of Cambridge Judge Business School.

This session includes a 45 minute panel discussion followed by a 30 minute Q&A session where attendees are invited to share ideas and explore topics further.
