Arguably the biggest challenge our civilization has ever faced. Climate change will not only shape some of the biggest developments in science and technology of the 21st Century, but also focus the minds of legislators, central bankers, consumers, companies and investors alike for at least a generation.
What you will learn
By the end of this short course, you will be able to explain how the global economy will need to change in order to stall the catastrophic rise in global temperatures.
