Opinion Piece: From colour to climate change – a scientist’s journey

It is important that scientists, aside from communicating with other scientists, must now engage with all of the other stakeholder groups, including government, industry, and consumers as all of these contribute to the growing climate problem and all need to be involved in finding solutions. My objective, inspired by the words of Paul Nurse, has always been to explain the underpinning science behind the current global concerns, including as the highest priority, climate warming. In this respect, scientists have become teachers for the world community.
