Bill Reilly on the Pope’s Environmental Encyclical

Climate One

Published on Jun 29, 2015

Bill Reilly, Senior Advisor at TPG, discusses the Pope’s message in his environmental encyclical. “I think the surprise is that his message is on several planes, it’s on the plane certainly of theology and morality. It also gets very close to the realm of policy and action. It calls out people who are not accepting climate change and suggest that indifference or excessive belief in the technical solution or just opposition to science is unacceptable on a moral plane,” said Reilly.

May 12, 2015 – FEEM Lecture: “Arctic Amplification, Climate Change, Global Warming”

FEEMchannel

Published on Jun 5, 2015

FEEM Lecture by Peter Wadhams, Professor of Ocean Physics, University of Cambridge: “Arctic Amplification, Climate Change, Global Warming. New Challenges from the Top of the World”

The continuous and progressive transformations related to global warming in the Arctic are posing new challenges which require appropriate reflection as well as innovative and efficient solutions.

The melting of the Arctic ice started over 60 years ago, but its quick acceleration in the last decade brings about a wide range of dramatic consequences at economic, social and environmental level that in turn have geostrategic implications on a world scale.

What a few years ago was considered mainly a local problem is nowadays showing its full potential in transforming consolidated geopolitical relations: the melting of the Arctic ice – which is actually faster than predicted – may lead to conflicts in terms of navigation along new shipping routes, access to local resources and the subsistence of indigenous and local populations.

While looking for scientific and technological solutions, it is now urgent to also identify a new international governance that may support the implementation of an Arctic cooperation management system at a world level.

Peter Wadhams, Professor of Ocean Physics at the University of Cambridge, in the Lecture “Arctic Amplification, Climate Change, Global Warming. New Challenges from the Top of the World” will discuss these topics from a privileged point of view: leader of over 40 polar expeditions from the ’70s until today, Professor Wadhams is in fact one of the most renowned international experts in the field. Presenting the results of over 40 years of research to an audience of experts, scholars and researchers, he will provide a unique perspective on the relationship between global warming in the Arctic and geopolitical dynamics, along with new solutions to adequately address the issues at stake.
