* Messages for the Paris conference: The forgotten dimensions of climate 
change

SGR conference and AGM 2015

Saturday 31 October

The Gallery, Farringdon, London EC1M 6EL

10.30 to 16.30

We will discuss a range of climate change issues which, although 
important, are unlikely to feature in the formal negotiations in Paris. 
Nevertheless, we ignore them at our peril...

Speakers:

Keeping 80% of fossil fuels in the ground
- Prof Keith Barnham, Imperial College London (author of 'The Burning 
Answer')
- Laurence Matthews, Cap and Share

Climate change and military technology
- Dr Philip Webber, SGR (lead author of 'UK nuclear weapons: a 
catastrophe in the making?')
- Tamara Lorenciz, International Peace Bureau [tbc]

A poster session and SGR's AGM will also take place during the event.
