VENUE: 35-47 Bethnal Green rd, London

Our economic system has played an important part in bringing about climate change. Can we stop climate chaos within the current system using market mechanisms and technological solutions, or are deeper changes in the political system and the way we live, work and make decisions necessary? Can we have a socially just transition to a low carbon economy?
