Today you will learn from expert guest Pierre Friedlingstein about carbon feedback cycles, why thy exist, and how we might positively influence them to solve climate change.

Professor Pierre Friedlingstein is a Fellow of the Royal Society. He holds a Chair in Mathematical Modelling of the Climate System at the University of Exeter. His research interests are in the field of global biogeochemical cycles and their interaction with the climate system. More specifically, he is interested in the coupling between  climate change and the major biogeochemical cycles over the historical period and in the future. He identified the positive feedback between climate change and carbon cycle and developed a mathematical framework for climate-carbon feedbacks analysis. Pierre coordinates the annual Global Carbon Budget of the Global Carbon Project (GCP), and also co-lead the  coupled climate carbon cycle intercomparison project (C4MIP).He is member of the Joint Steering Committee (JSC)  of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP).He has been actively involved in climate assessment through his participation in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) since 1994. He was lead author for the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report for both Working group I and the Synthesis Report.
