- Climate change is already affecting us all, regardless of where we live, through changing risks of extreme weather events. This lecture will take a break from global climate policy to talk about the links between climate and weather, chaos theory and the practical tools available to quantify changing risks.
There is a lot we still don’t know - and a lot we could know, if only governments and the insurance industry were willing to pay for better climate risk information.
This lecture was recorded by Myles Allen on 17th January 2024 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London
Myles is the Frank Jackson Foundation Professor of the Environment.
He has contributed extensively to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), including as Coordinating Lead Author for the 2018 IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C. He has published extensively on how human and natural influences on climate contribute to observed climate change and extreme weather risk, and the implications for adaptation and mitigation policy.

The climates have always changed. THATS LIFE.
Please either put your call to action before the lecture starts or at the end as it is interrupting the talk it just makes me want to click away and certainly not want to share it with anyone.
“ Because of Climate Change” where is the science every time he says this……..😂😂
Science or politics????
This is such an interesting idea. Imagine if we knew a flood was coming so we could evacuate people ahead of time, avoiding all that loss of life and minimising the strain on emergency services. Instead of reacting to climate disasters we could prepare in advance. It makes so much sense.
Er...it isn't.
How is Climate Change Affecting The Weather Now? - Myles Allen. 23.1.24. not as much as the magnetic pole flux currently interacting with various pole based weather fronts...it's s money spinner for some, an inconvenience for some.. a topic of chit chat for many.
Save Our Planet Now!
Thanks for the continuing political indoctrination Gresham.
Doesn't actually answer the question. More a plea for funding to answer the question.

Liked and shared. Not the first time I've linked a Gresham lecture around. Probably not the last, either.
While we are indeed loading the dice on climate generally there are also unforeseen feedback loops.
NOAA defines climate as "Climate is the average of the weather patterns in a location over a longer period of time, usually 30 years or more."
Öhm ähm aa, öhm öhm aa…
Why scientists so horrible at giving talks!? 😢
Preloaded with non science. Pronounced nonsense
Fascinating pseudoscience.
Since 1900 the global temperature has increased by 1.3°C. In that time humanity has flourished. Life expectancy has more than doubled from 32 to 73 years. Literacy has quadrupled from 21% to 86%. Humans are seven times more productive ($2,241 to $15,212 GDP per capita, per annum). People are better fed, having ⅓ more calories every day (2,192kcal to 2,928kcal). Global extreme poverty rates have tumbled from 70% to less than 10% (<$1 a day). And death from weather events have collapsed by a factor 50 from 241 million down to 5 million even while the global population has increased by a factor of 5.
What’s crazy is that humans think they can actually control the weather if they wanted to
