Christoph Harwood is from Hampshire. He works on climate change with environmental finance. He is going to put up placards with different countries and put balloons above them to show the amount of carbon used per head in each country. He will then pop balloons so each country is left with only 2 tonnes of carbon per head. He is a busy person. Family, friends and climate change are important to him. He became aware of climate change in the 1990s but didn't do anything professionally until he found some people were interested in investing in climate change while working at a Swiss bank. He now has his own consultancy. He sees art as the conscience of the nation; and that the process is as important as the result.
