Welcome to a Cosmos Insights podcast, where we talk to scientists in Australia about the impact of their work.
In November 1987, 35 years ago, 266 scientists met at Monash University at what was the first meeting to consider the national scientific response to the greenhouse gas problem. At the time many were working on ridding the atmosphere of chlorofluorocarbons, closing the hole over the Antarctic. Many were sceptical of claims that carbon dioxide was an existential threat.

Today Cosmos editor Ian Mannix talks to Graeme Pearman from the CSIRO, who organised the meeting, and Neville Nicholls from the Bureau of Meteorology research centre, who attended.
