Living in a world of more than 2°C above pre-industrial temperatures will present a host of challenges to water, food, health, infrastructure, ecosystems, social equity, cultural heritage and more. All of these impacts will have costs. Current indications are that we are heading for at least a 2.5°C warmer world.

The Monash Green Lab roundtables, held in collaboration with the U.S. National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA), will bring together leading international and Australian thinkers from government, business and community sectors.
