The Edinburgh Climate Conference aims to take a multi-disciplinary approach to climate change and climate challenges focusing primarily on how Scotland can contribute to the global effort. Across the course of two days we will be looking at the costs of inaction; the world stage; Scotland’s and the UK’s environmental policies; technologies to change the world; adaptive business solutions; and the role of the individual. Through this we hope to inspire, inform and educate students on issues outside of their own discipline so that they can return to their speciality better informed so as to make effective decisions affecting all our futures.
