Climate change is set to wreak havoc on the environment and hurt the economy. These effects could have serious long-run consequences. How does climate change compare to other pressing problems and if we are to mitigate risks from climate change, what charities should we give to?

Our two speakers have been researching this very question and will share their findings and answer audience questions:

• John Halstead, Forethought Foundation
• Johannes Ackva, Founders Pledge
