The Earth’s climate is changing and to limit warming to 1.5 or 2°C we need to do more than reducing our emissions - but what else can we do?

Join us on September 25th as Dr Max Rintoul highlights the possibilities, risks, and decisions that we might face to shape the planet’s future climate.

At last night's Beer Aquatic Dr Scott Spillias grappled with the efficacy and ethics of AI in science, and gave a masterclass in how to wrangle scarily human-like bots to produce anything from country music to tuna haikus and fish facts 🐟

See you on September 25th for another great talk!

Dr Scott Spillias last night at @beeraquatic.bsky.social , on whether AI fish will save the fish or crush our futures (maybe both?). Assisted by some friendly (and not so friendly) AI bots #hobart #marinescience #imas_utas

Thanks to Dr Will Hobbs for a great talk last Thursday about Antarctic sea ice, equal parts compelling and funny!

But we’d expect no less from our OG MC, finally taking centre stage. Thanks Will for many years putting on a great show.

We’re back May 29th with another great speaker. See you then! 🪶
