Explore how climate change intersects with global inequality through this 42-minute lecture by Professor Fredi Otto, a leading climate scientist and co-founder of World Weather Attribution. Examine eight extreme weather events that reveal the interconnected nature of racism, colonialism, sexism, and climate change, while discovering how political and social infrastructure failures exacerbate climate impacts on the world's most vulnerable populations. Learn about groundbreaking scientific methods that can calculate climate change's role in real-time extreme weather events, and understand why addressing climate change requires tackling broader issues of global inequality. Gain insights from Otto's research at Imperial College London's Grantham Institute for Climate Change, where she studies how extreme weather affects society, and discover how positive changes in social justice can create cascading benefits for climate resilience.
