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.
Presenting just a few days after publication of the IPCC Sixth Assessment, Mitigation report, Michael Grubb will summarise research on the economics of innovation and transition and its implications for energy and climate policy. Whilst touching upon themes from the IPCC Mitigation Assessment, the talk will highlight features of such economic thinking in the context of the converging crises of international energy supplies, global COVID-related debt and recovery, and the growing climate crisis. Ultimately, the talk will aim to inform the modern energy policy implications of the old saying: never waste a crisis.
