OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Stranded Assets and the Carbon Bubble: The prospects and implications of a stranding of carbon heavy assets
Much has been written about the financial risk of stranded assets lately. But how much risk is there and what does it depend on? What can lead to a stranding of assets? Will the carbon bubble be the next big crisis after sub-prime mortgages and government debt? How do investors react? And what role do stranded assets play in our transition towards a low-carbon economy?
Some neutral thoughts from a DPhil student who researches the implications of stranded carbon assets on green growth.
Spaces are free but limited please login and RSVP for each session on: www.meetup.com/OxfordClimateSociety
