Re-thinking ‘household’ energy use – Experiences at the frontiers of policy

This seminar is open to all and is part of the OISD seminar series for Autumn 2013.

The speaker will be Dr Tim Chatterton, Senior Research Fellow, University of the West of England

Tim has worked at the interface of science and policy for over 15 years, including numerous local authorities and a number of government Departments including DECC, Defra, DfT and DCLG. From an original background in air pollution, his work has increasingly encompassed public health, carbon emissions/climate change, and energy demand. He works across both environmental and social sciences and has become convinced that the challenge of communicating climate science is matched by that of communicating social science

The seminar will begin at 5pm and will finish at 6:15pm with drinks.
