Online lecture by Mark Lynas

On Friday 21st of April we welcomed welcome Mark Lynas for an online lecture as part of our upcoming course “The +2.5° City” and since we think that everybody should hear his story, we recorded the lecture.

Mark Lynas is the author of five major environmental bestseller books: High Tide (2004), Six Degrees (2008), The God Species (2011), Seeds of Science (2018) and Our Final Warning (2020). 

Lynas talked about ‘our future on a hotter planet’, in order for the participants in the studio to reflect on what the city of Rotterdam would be like to live with a 2,5 degree global temperature rise and how we would deal with issues such as water, food, storms and migration.
