Common Ground Public Forum on Climate Change
| Details: |
Ahead of the release of the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme White Paper in December, the need for constructive debate about Australia's response to climate change is stronger than ever.
The Centre for Policy Development is delighted to bring you our third Common Ground event at Customs House in Sydney on Wednesday, 26 November 2008, where we'll be bringing together speakers from all quarters of society who are united in their belief that Australia should lead, not follow, in dealing with the world's most pressing common ground issue.
Keynote speakers, The Hon Bob Carr (Former NSW Premier) and
The Hon Pru Goward (NSW Shadow Minister for Climate Change and Environment)
will be followed by panel discussion and Q&A with:
Steve Hatfield-Dodds (former CSIRO researcher, now with the Department of Climate Change)
Fiona Wain (Environment Business Australia),
Andrew Bartlett (former Democrats Senator),
and Imam Afroz Ali (the 'Australian Religious Response to Climate Change' initiative).
