The Conference, featuring leading experts on climate-change issues, will raise awareness about the scientific uncertainties surrounding climate-change theory. It will also address a number of questions concerning scenarios of catastrophic climate change, including:

o Are extreme weather events on the increase due to global warming?
o Are the world's glaciers melting?

o Will rising sea-levels flood parts of Britain?

Apocalypse No will be taking place in advance of the Met Office’s Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research Conference, Avoiding Dangerous Climate Change: a Scientific Symposium on Stabilisation of Greenhouse Gases, from 1-3 February. Tony Blair has promised that the Met Office Conference: "... will address the big questions on which we need to pool the answers available from the science." It is hoped that this prior Conference will help to ensure that no questions or answers are overlooked, or unwisely assumed.
