A lecture by Professor Myles Allen, Gresham Frank Jackson Foundation Professor of the Environment.
When oil and gas industry leaders flew into Houston for CERAWeek 2024, oil was over $80 per barrel and demand higher than ever. There was little discussion of “transitioning away from fossil fuels” as agreed at COP28 in Dubai.
In the run-up to COP29, this lecture argues for a change in the narrative, so those with the ability and resources to solve the climate problem have less incentive to shuffle responsibility onto ordinary people who do not.
Gresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters. There are currently over 2,500 lectures free to access. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn from some of the greatest minds.
