SUMMARY:Climate Risk and Insurance
DESCRIPTION:Why did coastal homeowners lose insurance while UK energy bills spiked after Russia’s invasion? Because risks started moving together. In this lecture\, Professor Raghavendra Rau shows how climate extremes and geopolitics create synchronised shocks that overwhelm insurers and energy suppliers\, pushing up premiums and bills. He discusses the basics of risk pooling\, why it breaks under correlation\, and what realistic fixes look like—from parametric policies and better building standards to smarter hedging and targeted support. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Raghavendra Rau\nGresham Mercers’ School Memorial Professor of Business\n  \nProfessor Rau was the Gresham College Mercers’ School Memorial Professor of Business.

SUMMARY:Beyond Solar\, Wind and Hydrogen
DESCRIPTION:This SPOC event will look at what’s beyond solar\, wind and hydrogen: when mitigation alone isn’t enough – where do we go from here? \nPresentation by Professor Averil MacDonald \nWe were promised that moving to green energy would get us to net zero and then everything will be fine\, but it turns out things are not quite so simple … We are already realising that wind and solar aren’t enough and energy saving can only go so far. Professor Averil Macdonald will look forward to the next 20 years and describe the new technologies that are coming down the road.\nBut\, despite all the new technology\, the modest-sounding 2°C average global temperature rise forecast will have serious consequences for the way we all live our lives day to day. We learnt at the recent LCAG Conference that we will need to adapt to the changing climate – everything from modifying our houses\, to transport\, to the urban environment and even food supply chains. This talk ends with a salutary reminder of what we will need to do to make life liveable at this latitude\, Join us on Zoom\, if only to find out why a clean bucket might be the most important thing to keep in your home. \nBook here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/lcag/2125790 \nProfessor Averil Macdonald OBE DSc D.Univ HonFInstP FRSA \n  \n \nAveril Macdonald is Emeritus Professor at the University of Reading\, was formerly Professor of Inclusion and Equality at University of Birmingham and has now joined the £11M Cornerstone project at Southampton University as EDI Lead. \nAveril was awarded the international Bragg Medal and Prize (1999) by the Institute of Physics\, London\, the accolade of Woman of Outstanding Achievement in Science (2007) in recognition of her work in Science Communication\, the prestigious Plastics Industry Award for Personal Contribution to the Industry (2007)\, Honorary Doctorates by the University of York (2010) and Kingston University (2015) and an OBE in the Birthday Honours list 2015 for services to women in science.

SUMMARY:A Conversation about Sustainability between Dame Polly Courtice and Peter Simpson
DESCRIPTION:This will be a free-flowing conversation between two exceptionally experienced people in the field of sustainability: the founder of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership and a former Chief Executive of Anglian Water. They are both members of the Water Conservators.\nPolly and Peter have been working in this field for over thirty years and during that time have seen the dramatic evolution of the sustainability debate in terms of politics\, economics and corporate responses. Topics they will cover include:\n•\nThe evolution of the sustainability landscape – how politics\, policy\, and corporate attitudes have shifted over the last thirty years\n•\nTackling the competing demands of economic growth\, demographic shifts\, and climate and nature recovery\n•\nWhere is the water industry today and what barriers and opportunities lie ahead?\n•\nWhat defines “sustainability leadership” today – how attitudes have changed and what is required of today’s business leaders to drive genuine change and positive impact\nThis will be followed by an opportunity to network\, with drink refreshments provided.\nThe event is free and by invitation only. Places are limited and available on a first come first served basis.
