Climate emergency, accelerated global warming, environmental degradation... these are terms we hear every day in the media and in conversations.
Between the latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which sounds the alarm, and the provisional report on the state of the world's climate in 2021, published recently by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), the overwhelming conclusions are clear: it is time to act to save the future of our planet.

But why are these words so alarming?
Why is it urgent to act?
Is it already too late?

Our speaker, a specialist in extreme weather phenomena, a climatologist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and a member of the IPCC, will give us some examples and tools for understanding why climate change is becoming increasingly important.
