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
Climate futures: Will fire be the beginning and the end of our story?
The discovery of fire was the beginning of civilisation – and it may well be the end of it, if we continue with the “business as usual” world moulded by fossil fuels.
2024 Pulitzer Prize Finalist John Valliant, author of “Fire Weather” and Associate Professor Ben Franta, Associate Professor of Climate Litigation and the founding head of the Climate Litigation Lab will discuss the implications of the continued use of fossil fuels and how we navigate the legal landscape to mitigate fossil fuels’ most damaging impacts.
