After the runaway success of the first series of talks, The Earth Convention returns. This series of online events, produced in partnership with 5 x 15, is on the theme of the Four Elements – Earth, Water, Air and Fire.
It brings together world experts for online conversations, focusing on the issues as well as opportunities for change, and the actions that we can all take at this critical time in the world's response to the climate crisis. The world's water supplies are under threat, and the effects of overfishing and plastic pollution on our oceans and rivers are unmistakable. Glaciers are melting and droughts and floods are becoming an increasingly frequent aspect of life on earth.
The water crisis requires urgent collective action and sustainable solutions. Water, the second session in our Four Elements series looks squarely at the situation and brings together a panel of expert writers and thinkers. Join Alok Jha, Tobias Jones and Adam Nicolson as they discuss a range of pressing concerns, from the challenges and losses posed by droughts and dried-up rivers, to the wonders of marine life between the tides and the measures needed to preserve them.
Don’t miss this vital conversation about water and its fundamental role in life on earth chaired by Rosie Boycott, cross-bench peer, food campaigner and co-founder of 5 x 15.
