The Conversation: Gaia Vince and Monica Feria-Tinta

Description

The Conversation is a series of weekly events talking about conflict and empathy, inequality and power, climate crisis and wonder through storytelling and action. The first half of the evening is an interview, which is followed by the host and guest joining the audience around tables to take the conversation further. Everyone is welcome.

We celebrate Earth Day 2025 with a bumper double header, featuring the dynamic and inspirational environmental writer Gaia Vince and the global rights lawyer Monica Feria-Tinta.

Gaia Vince offers the radical and super-positive rethinking of migration as a solution to our climate crisis – the ultimate adaptation. She suggests how the relocation of hundreds of millions of people in the 21st century could, if managed well, allow us to adapt habitats and create global economic wealth. Gaia Vince is a science writer and broadcaster exploring the interplay between human systems and the planetary environment. She is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at the Anthropocene Institute at UCL and a regular host of BBC Inside Science. Her first book, Adventures In The Anthropocene won the Royal Society Science Book of the Year Prize.

The pioneering British-Peruvian barrister Monica Feria-Tinta’s book A Barrister for the Earth: Ten Cases of Hope for Our Future recounts her groundbreaking legal work on restorative environmental justice – from championing cloud forests in Ecuador to the pollution of British rivers.

Chaired by Peter Florence.
