show moreClimate Change continues to be an incredibly daunting, complex and multifaceted challenge for the future of our planet. It’s an important conversation to be having as individuals, in government, in community groups and in the private sector. But where to start? There’s so much to comprehend, and plenty of directions you can go to learn more. Today we thought we’d start with the poles, and what rising temperatures mean for Antarctica and our oceans in particular.
Matt King is the Professor of Polar Geodesy at the University of Tasmania and Director of the Australian Centre for Excellence in Antarctic Science. Much of his work has focused on the changing Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets and the subsequent impact this is having on sea levels. Matt has published more than 140 scientific journal publications, and his research has been recognised by the award of medals from the Royal Society of London and the Australian Academy of Sciences
