Queens Film Theatre, 20 University Square, Belfast BT7 1PA

In this documentary, Sir David Attenborough and Prof. Johan Rockström present key data illuminating factors contributing to the climate crisis.  Armed with this knowledge, they pinpoint tipping points in key parameters such as biodiversity and CO2 levels which when exceeded could result in irreversible changes to the planet. 

Following the screening discuss these topics with a panel of researchers from across Engineering and Physical Sciences working on power grids, biofuels, exoplanets, medical modelling and fusion energy.  We will also discuss how key skills central to engineering and physical sciences can be used to engage with sustainability efforts, answer your questions and let you know how you can get involved in tackling climate change now and in the future. 

Register here for your invitation and to submit your questions to the panel.  Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis with registration closing at 17:00 on 10th MArch. Invitation emails will be sent out shortly afterwards.
