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
Youth Set the Agenda on the Future of Fuel and Transport In The Race to Zero
A youth-led dialogue about the pathway to net zero for energy and transport ‘from wellhead to wheel’ asking: What is the future for fossil fuels and transport in a net zero world?
This year saw net zero commitments from some of the largest fossil fuel companies and transport companies to net zero by mid-century. This dialogue will bring together leaders in these traditionally hard-to-abate sectors with young researchers and resilience-minded youth speakers, to spark collaborative conversation about how these industries can work together to take meaningful, immediate action on these net zero pathways.
Speakers will include a representative from BP, Shell, and of leading transport industry executives as well as a line up of youth climate policy researchers, entrepreneurs, activists, biofuel engineers, and communications experts, with a particular lens on global south perspectives and resiliency in the transition to a post carbon world.
