Red Kite has been awarded a contract to deliver climate change policy briefings and engage stakeholders for the £23M QUEST research programme on "Quantifying Earth system processes and feedbacks for better informed assessments of alternative futures of the global environment". This National Environment Research Council programme's themes include the interactions between land and marine life and climate change, global climate change impacts, reducing GHGs through land-use change and understanding climate over geological time scales, with projects on biofuels, wildfires, forestry, volcanoes and fisheries. Fiona will be working with project stakeholders from UK government, private and third sector and academics from UK and Europe to explain the science and interpret policy-maker needs.
