George will help us understand why we ignore an obvious fact

George Marshall - he will help us understand
why people ignore climate change.

George Marshall will hopefully help us understand that the brutality facts will not take us any closer to understanding or addressing climate change.

The communications expert who will be in Shepparton on Monday, February 16, will talk about why people are hardwired to ignore climate change.

The fact is that climate change is here, it is real and it is impacting on the behaviour of all life on earth, and evidence of those facts just keeps piling in.

The latest on the ABC tells us that the “2013 record heatwave 'virtually impossible' without climate change, Climate Council ofAustralia report says”.

So there it is, right before us, not anecdotal and not supposition, but clear unequivocal fact and undeniable evidence that climate change is impacting on our lives and yet many of us have not yet found the capacity to incorporate that reality into our thinking.

George Marshall will speak at Shepparton’s Rural School of Academic Health in Graham St at 6:00pm. The event is being promoted by the Shepparton-based group, Slap Tomorrow, with the endorsement and support of the Melbourne-based Psychology for a Safe Climate and the Sustainable Living Festival.
