Moving Towards Sustainability: Less stuff, more fun?

Organised by:

SCI's London Group in partnership with UCL's Chemical & Physical Society

 

UCL, London, UK

Registration Closed

This event is no longer available for registration.

Synopsis

It is generally accepted that achieving the deep cuts in greenhouse gas emissions required to limit dangerous climate change will require changes in behaviour. However, if such changes are not socially accepted then they are unlikely to happen.

In this talk, Angela Druckman explores which activities are fun while also producing relatively low carbon emissions. Although the picture is nuanced, the talk concludes with some possible ways forward for more sustainable lifestyles.
