Matthew gave a talk too!

We need a global assessment of avoidable climate-change risks To understand the urgency of emissions reductions, policymakers and citizens need a full analysis of what is at stake.

Major threats to our well being from climate change can be avoided, or hugely reduced, by rapid action.

Our Nature comment calls for a global risk assessment, effectively communicated to governments, the media and the public, to make clear what is at stake.
