The Keynote speech will be by Professor Roy Alexander of University of Chester. He is the advisor to Ashton Hayes, the village in Cheshire that is the first to attempt to go carbon-neutral. The theme of his speech is "Lessons learned, challenges ahead"
There will be real live climate scientists walking around with badges saying "ask me about sunspots/volcanoes/'is it really happening?'" so you can get your own personal update.
There will be tea and coffee and cake (made purely from E numbers, flown in from 10,000 miles away).
