Climate change is the biggest challenge facing humanity. Limited resources to cope with the forthcoming impacts mean people in the developing world will be hit particularly hard. Students from the UEA's Oxfam Society give a 45 minute interactive workshop looking at the impact of climate change globally, the work that Oxfam are doing to help people in developing countries prepare for a changing climate, and what your students can do to help.
