Coffee & Geography Espresso - 1 - The IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report with David Preece

‘Espresso’ & Geography is a podcast short where Kit Marie and a special guest talk current geographical affairs for a maximum of 15 minutes. Our first shot of geography-laden caffeine is the recently released Synthesis Report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (or IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report. What is it? What are the key messages? And how can we make use of this information? Joining Kit Marie is David Preece, Head of Geography at Teach First, having taught 11-18 Geography in SE London for over a decade, including six years as Head of Department. David is also an active and enthusiastic blogger in the UK geography teacher’s community.
