At the Paris Climate Talks in 2015 195 countries made pledges how to keep global warming under 2 degrees Celsius - or even better 1.5 degrees. However there is very little information as to how or if at all - these pledges are being honored.
Kevin Anderson is Professor of Energy and Climate Change at the University of Manchester, and Deputy Director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research.
In March 2016 he came for a whirl wind speaking tour of Ireland and sat down for an interview in Dublin with John Gibbons from the National Trust for Ireland. Gibbons calls Anderson one of the worldâs best known and most influential â and outspoken â climate specialists.
Here is the first part of his one hour no holds barred exceedingly well researched analysis, ranging from CO2 emissions in agriculture, his opinion on the million dollar question: is a 2 degree Celsius temperature rise unavoidable - and what if we were to go to 4 degrees? Anderson also unpacks the false promise of green growth.
