Hot spots in a cool land: urban overheating in an era of climate change | Glasgow Caledonian University’s Professorial lecture on January 21 2015. As part of the 2014/2015 series of public lectures, Professor Rohinton Emmanuel’s lecture looks at how man-made climate change and global urbanisation mean most people will experience the effects of climate change in cities. The lecture outlines Professor Emmanuel’s work on the growing ‘urban heat island’ problem in Glasgow, and examines the outlook for policy and issues surrounding our quality of life.
