SUMMARY:Halfway between Glasgow and Sharm El-Sheik
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we bring together a panel of St Andrews staff and students who attended November's historic COP26 conference in Glasgow. We'll discuss what was achieved at the conference and how we can build momentum as we approach six months to COP27 in Sharm el-Sheik.    This lively discussion will be moderated by Stephen Gethins (Principal's Office and School of International Relations) and will feature a panel of staff and students from different areas of the University of St Andrews who attended COP26.    You'll hear about their experiences at COP and their opinions on what should happen next. You'll also have the chance to ask questions and make your views heard about the climate emergency.    Panelists    James Rae - School of Earth and Environmental Sciences  James' research focuses on the Earth's carbon cycle and climate and he attended COP26 as part of the University's delegation, attending various plenary and discussion sessions. He also includes COP-related content in three courses within Earth and Environmental Sciences and COP26 continues to inform some of the critical aspects of his group's research on CO2 and climate change.
