06/25/21 • 2 min

We know the world is facing a climate crisis. In confronting this, we must look to the future and consider the challenges not just of today, but of 20, 50 and many more years ahead. What needs to be in place if we are to successfully adapt and navigate those global challenges? Whatever the answer, science and technology will play an essential role in addressing them.

These are the issues at the heart of the second series of the Institute of Physics’ Looking Glass podcast. Hosted by science journalist, podcaster and author Gemma Milne, Looking Glass: A Green Future will invite thinkers from across the political, scientific and social spectrum to share their ideas and experience.
