Who We Are

We are a multidisciplinary team working across the University of Cambridge and other institutions around the world to deliver our objectives.

Climate change is accelerating and directly affecting life on Earth:

  • Average temperatures continue to rise 
  • Extreme weather events are becoming more extreme and more frequent, causing floods, droughts, bushfires, and hurricanes. 
  • Ice caps shrink, leading to sea level rise and reducing the amount of heat reflected to space, thereby accelerating warming further.
  • Crop failure from weather changes and extreme events leads to food shortages and mass migration.
  • Biodiversity decreases as species cannot adapt or evolve at the current speed of environmental change.


Our mission is three fold:
