SUMMARY:Better Data For Cleaner Air: The ADRC NI Online Air Pollution Dashboard
DESCRIPTION:Globally\, air pollution is one of the most severe environmental threats to public health. Knowing where air quality is poor can help people avoid the negative health impacts\, which will have broader effects on society and the economy. \nThe ADRC NI Environmental Health Research Group at Queen’s has developed an online dashboard to support this impact. This webinar will provide a demonstration of this dashboard\, along with an expert discussion. \nThis event will be led by researchers from The ADRC NI Environmental Health Research Group at Queen’s. \nThis event will be led by Dr Neil Rowland\, ADRC NI Research Fellow and regional Clean Air Champion for Northern Ireland; and Professor Duncan McVicar\, ADRC NI.

SUMMARY:Expressing a youth perspective on climate damage using animation
DESCRIPTION:Don Duncan\, a filmmaker\, journalist and lecturer at Queen’s University will lead a discussion on how young people feel alienated and disenfranchised when it comes to bringing about change in the climate agenda. \nThis event will include a live showcase/presentation of animations produced by young people in Northern Ireland on the subject of climate justice and human rights. This will be followed by a panel discussion and audience Q&A. The event will occur live in the Sonic Lab (SARC)\, Queen’s University Belfast\, and will be simultaneously broadcast online. \nHow do can we tell the story of climate change in a way that will effect change now? How can a youth perspective be of value in this? How can animation be a useful tool in this narrative enterprise? These are some of the particular issues that will be discussed in an event that generally ponders the stories that need to be told now about the climate emergency.

SUMMARY:The climate crisis and ensuring a just transition beyond carbon
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place at Queen’s University Belfast and will involve panel talks and discussions\, followed by a Q&A session on the crucial role of trade unions in climate action. \nWith growing awareness of the climate crisis\, the focus is now shifting towards climate action and how to transition societies beyond their dependence on fossil fuels. For some this means that this transition is now inevitable. However\, whether it will be “just” is not. This discussion will examine the crucial role of the trades’ union movement (where the idea of a ‘just transition’ originated) in contributing to the political process of managing this transition in a manner that is inclusive\, democratic and where no community or section of society or the workforce is left behind. \nThis event will be led by John Barry\, Professor of Green Political Economy and Co-director of the Centre for Sustainability at Queen’s. Panel members will include Hilary Wainwright\, University of Bradford\, Susan Fitzgerald\, Unite the Union’s Regional Industrial Officer for Northern Ireland\, and Dr. Stiofán Ó Nualláin\, co-director of Trademark Belfast\, the Irish Congress of Trade Unions political education and anti-sectarian unit.
