In the final episode of this season of Climate Talks, hosts Cathy Oke and Jackie Peel are joined by experts from the University of Melbourne: Robyn Schofield, Associate Professor in Atmospheric Chemistry, Associate Dean Environment and Sustainability in the School of Geography, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences, and Janine Felson, Research Fellow, Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute. Cathy and Jackie speak with the show guests about what decisions were made in Glasgow, what opportunities were missed, and what are the implications of these outcomes for climate science, climate finance, and sustainable development. Rebecca Burdon, Honorary Research Fellow with Melbourne Climate Futures and CEO of Climate Resource, will also feature in this episode to talk through her analysis of pledges made at COP26 and whether they 'add up' to keeping 1.5 alive. This edition will also feature Professor Don Henry’s reflections, sent from the floor of the Blue Zone, on the outcomes of the COP.
