Caving and climate change

Oral|Mr . Wookey

Abstract

What is your 'caving carbon footprint'? Does it matter?

We are used to the scientific relevance of caves to climate change as preservers of paleoclimate data, but less thought is given to the carbon footprint of caving itself. Have you any idea what the effects of various caving activities are and how these compare to what you do in the rest of your life? This thought-provoking talk will attempt to give you some numbers and context.
