Wheeler Centre discussion about environment and sustainability

Melbourne’s Wheeler Centre recently hosted a series of events at which various guests discussed Ideas for Melbourne and one saw a conversation about “Environment and Sustainability”.

The session about Melbourne’s environment and its sustainability saw a conversation involving the Environment Victoria CEO, Kelly O’Shanassy, and the Policy Challenges Resource Manager with the Victorian Eco-Innovation Lab (VEIL), Kirsten Larsen.

Chairing the discussion was The Age's environment editor, Adam Morton, who reports on climate science, carbon pricing, international climate politics and other local and global environment issues.

Kirsten Larsen, through VEIL, seeks to identify and promote emerging technical, social and organisational innovations that could form part of future sustainable systems.

Environment Victoria is Victoria's leading, independent environment group working to safeguard the state’s environment and its future.
