OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Postponed to Michelmas Term 2020: Objectively assessing the (in)compatibility of power assets with the Paris Agreement and the SDGs.
Aligning the economy with sustainability requires us to understand the i) impacts that current and planned projects will have on the local and global environment, as well as on sustainable development and ii) the stranded asset risks current and planned projects face from different physical and transition risks related to environmental change, particularly climate change. This information and analysis can then inform decision-making by governments, private and public financial institutions, financial regulators, companies, and civil society. This presentation will cover the challenges and opportunities of doing this for the power sector and the what needs to happen next in power, as well as other sectors of the global economy.
