Hilary Benn MP, Secretary of State for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs and in-depth workshops, SDUK2010 will examine the wide-scale adaption needed by individuals, government, communities and business alike if we are to minimise the effects of a changing climate and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.

The Breathing Ocean
Finale event: UK Surface Ocean - Lower Atmosphere Study
Met Office, Exeter
This event will present the latest research in a key area of Earth system science: how the sea and sky are connected by chemical, physical and biological processes. Such connections between ocean and atmosphere play a crucial role in determining marine productivity, air quality and the global climate. The UK SOLAS community has investigated these processes with the Met Office and other national and international partners, through a five year, £11m research programme that is now nearing completion.
Deadline for registration is 17 March 2010.
