Tipping points: Let's get sedimental
The Planetary Boundaries Working Group is holding a webinar on 27 March 2025, 11-12 UTC, on the topic of how palaeoecology can help understand tipping points and safe operating spaces.
The event is hosted by Oppenheimer Generations Research and Conservation, an organization that catalyses targeted research and harnesses dialog between research and practice to create impact in African landscapes.
