Professor Tim Palmer: Climate Change, Inexact Computing and Inequality

An interview with Professor Tim Palmer about his hopes on governmental response to climate change, the uncertainty of clouds in today's models and his current research on inexact computing -- a novel way of increasing efficiency and reducing computational requirements numerical models. He also talks about the culture surrounding scientists and public and political engagement, which leads us to the ultimate challenge of today: inequality.

Prof Palmer is a professor at Oxford University and a Royal Society Research Professor in Climate Physics.
