The conference is a ‘call to action’ to the research community, policymakers, and business to raise awareness and understanding of the importance of tipping points and to accelerate the required action. The programme will cover the latest developments in both negative and positive tipping points, at scales from local to global, and from theory to practice. It will consider the risks from climate tipping points and opportunities for positive tipping points for different regions, communities, sectors, and supply chains.
