Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
At COP30 in Belem, Brazil, governments reaffirmed global climate goals under the Paris Agreement but fell short of commitments capable of changing current emissions trajectories. This matters in a world that has already warmed to approximately 1.4°C above pre-industrial levels, with climate impacts intensifying unevenly across localities and regions, shaped by place-specific social, economic, and political contexts.
The seminar uses the En-ROADS Climate Solutions Simulator to explore different mitigation policy options, showing how emissions respond in practice and opening discussion on what this means for climate policy and the choices we make in a warming world.
