This series looks at, as the name suggests, anything related to disruption. This is a broad subject to incorporate anything from technological disruption both in favour and against action on climate change, the climate impact disrupting our society, and short term policy and political thinking disrupting our ability to tackle climate change and the counter disruptive thinking that is needed to both counter this and accelerate our efforts to deal with the climate crisis.
