Climate Curious LIVE

Join Climate Curious for a live recording of its number one smash-hit podcast in London featuring an extra special guest: one of the original architects of modern climate action and the CEO of the European Climate Foundation, Laurence Tubiana.

In conversation with “Climate OGs”, we’ll be looking back through the history books – to ask the people that were there – what does the cycle of change feel like when you’re going through it? Why is progress a rocky road, not a dead end? How can we navigate the peaks and troughs with resilience? And what is Europe’s role in climate change as global action feels increasingly fractured and fragile?

We’ll cover:

• The history of climate progress – how can we zoom out to put the current moment in an historical context to gain perspective and understanding?
• The cycles of change – why are cycles and flux a natural part of the systems change process?
• The role of Europe – what is Europe’s role in the global fight against climate change in 2026+?
