David Spratt worked with Ian Dunlop to write the "Carbon Budget Briefing Notes for 1.5 and 2 degrees Celsius" for the National Centre for Climate Restoration, Breakthrough.

A story about those briefing notes - "Net zero emissions must be reached before 2030 for 2°C target, new analysis says" - was published by Australia's pre-eminent climate website, RenewEconomy.

In this episode, David talks about why he and Ian wrote the briefing paper, who it is for and why people should pay attention to their carbon budget.

The music for all Climate Conversations episodes comes from "Music for a Warming World".
