REWRITE THE FUTURE: Climate Conversations 18 Feb 2010

Hawthorn Town Hall, Burwood Road, Hawthorn

Has the political debate left you unsure about climate change or about your role in responding to it?  Do we have the solutions needed? How can we make the necessary changes?
Hear from respected climate scientist David Karoly and other experts, then join local residents and community groups for interactive discussion on climate change and our options and priorities for a sustainable future.
This event aims to inform people about the science of climate change and solutions for to address it effectively as well as facilitate participants’ contributions to a discussion about priorities for action.
It is intended for people who are concerned about climate change but are confused by the current debate; those who wish to know more about the solutions and options for effective mitigation of further climate change; and those who would like to move from interest to action on climate related issues.
This forum is being organised by local climate action group Lighter Footprints, with organic refreshments courtesy of the City of Boroondara's Living for our Future program.
Local community groups are welcomed to attend and space will be made available for those wishing to set up their own display.
