Have your say on the Garnaut Climate Change Review
The Garnaut Climate Change Review is releasing it’s draft report on 30th June. If you live in a capital city on the mainland, you can attend a public forum to have your say about it. Professor Garnaut will be travelling around the country from the 7th to the 11th of July to host community discussions about the report. Individuals and organisations are encouraged to attend, but if you can’t, you can email or write in with your comments.
Each forum is held in the city’s town hall, from 10:00am to 11:30am. The dates are:
- Perth 7th July
- Adelaide 8th July
- Melbourne 9th July
- Sydney 10th July
- Brisbane 11th July
If you’re interested, you can register to attend through the review website.
The Garnaut review is the only independent study about the impacts of climate change that’s focusing on the Australian economy, and will be making recommendations about long-term policies and frameworks for Australia. I’d love to go to one of these forums, to see how it’s shaping up, but after taking a day off work to go to the Water Forever workshop I don’t think I can manage another day off so soon! If you do go, let me know if you’d like to write a guest post to share with the rest of us how it went.
