Climate change is fundamentally an ethical issue. Its effects touch everyone and failure to take action will cause widespread and devastating harm. But, some of the proposed actions may themselves have damaging and destructive impacts on the poorest and most vulnerable societies, who historically have emitted the least, and whose emissions continue to be very low. How do we negotiate this?

The roundtable will feature:
His Excellency António Guterres - Secretary-General of the United Nations
Professor Richard Sennett - Senior Advisor to the UN on the Council on Urban Initiatives
The Rt Rev & Rt Hon Lord Rowan Williams - Former Archbishop of Canterbury
Anjum Nahar - Cambridge Students’ Union PG President
Maryam Grassly - Cambridge Undergraduate Student
The Rt Hon Lord Chris Smith - Master of Pembroke College (Chair)
