A National Geographic explorer, climate scientist and lecturer at King’s College London, Tom is interested in the social impacts of climate change. This drives him to understand the most extreme climates on the planet.

His work reveals the interdependence between the glaciers of the Andean peaks and the immense Amazon rainforest below.
