Apocalypse No will be taking place in advance of the Met Office’s Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research conference; Avoiding Dangerous Climate Change: A Scientific Symposium on Stabilisation of Greenhouse Gases, from 1-3 February. Tony Blair has promised the Met Office conference “will address the big questions on which we need to pool the answers available from the science”. We hope that our event will help ensure that no questions or answers are overlooked or unwisely assumed.
