## Resource

In this episode we're joined by a legend of the climate change movement. Once a Cambridge mathematician, manufacturing executive and then on to the UN high level climate champion for COP26, Nigel Topping has spent decades bridging the gap between factory floors and the likes of the Paris Agreement. Now, as chair of the UK Climate Change Committee, Nigel is steering the UK towards its 2050 targets with the same data-driven precision he once used as a Cambridge mathematician. Hosted on Acast.
