Climate Crisis Lecture

The rapid global push to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere – and the question of whether it can be done safely, credibly and at scale – will be the focus of the next Climate Crisis Lecture at St John’s College.

Professor Gideon Henderson CBE FRS, an Honorary Fellow of St John’s and one of the UK’s most senior scientific voices on climate and the environment, will deliver the free lecture, Carbon Dioxide Removal: Is the Science and Policy Keeping Up with the Market?  

Professor Henderson is Professor of Earth Sciences at the University of Oxford, a geochemist whose research focuses on the carbon cycle, oceans and past climate change.

The lecture will be followed by a discussion featuring St John’s Fellows Professor Laura Diaz Anadon, Professor of Climate Change Policy, and Professor Andy Woods, Head of the University’s Institute for Energy and Environmental Flows. Professor Woods’ research includes work on geological carbon storage and subsurface energy systems, while Professor Diaz Anadon’s work focuses on climate policy, innovation and governance.
