Spotlight on: Professor Bill McGuire

This week we talk to Bill McGuire, Professor Emeritus of Geophysical & Climate Hazards. He tells us about his work on climate change and the importance of environmental activism, and his new and upcoming novels. What is your role and what does it involve?. As Professor Emeritus of Geophysical & Climate Hazards, the research-active phase of my career is beginning to wind down a little, the gap filled by writing popular science and speculative fiction. I am also a patron of Scientists for Global Responsibility, a Co-director of the New Weather Institute think-tank and a member of Writers Rebel, so I keep busy. How long have you been at UCL and what was your previous role?. I graduated from UCL in 1976, and returned in 1997 to take up positions as the Greig Fester Chair in Geophysical Hazards and Director of the Greig Fester Centre for Hazard Research (now the UCL Hazard Centre).
