      I work on projects assessing the impacts of climate change in the context of how and where we live. Recent activities have focused on food security, and in particular agricultural production “shocks”. I've undertaken research on the links between the climate and food price spikes, and am currently analysing the risk of multi-breadbasket failures in both the present day, and throughout the 21st century.
