Meet your friendly neighbourhood climate scientists

Part of the Cambridge Science Festival 2019

Join your local climate experts Drs Emily Shuckburgh, Heather Ford, Cameron Brick, Ella Gilbert, Ritwika Sengupta, and Dan Jones for a climate change conversation.

Audience members will be free to ask questions in person and anonymously using a mobile device.

Come and get personal with climate science!
