'Conversations' now turn to Local Government and Sustainability


Climate change and the Strathbogie region was the subject for the first of the “Conversations” staged recently by Strathbogie Voices and the Euroa Environment Group.

More than 100 people were at Euroa’s Kirkland Avenue historic flour-mill for the first of this year’s sessions in February, which featured the Professor in Atmospheric Science at the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Melbourne, David Karoly.

Professor Karoly is an internationally renowned expert on climate change and a key spokesperson on this topic.

This short Youtube clip illustrates the essence of that first session and people can now look forward to the second “conversation” to be held on Saturday, March 21 entitled: “Local Government and Sustainability”.

The March 21 “Conversations” will feature Winsome McCaughey, Mike Hill (formerly Mayor Moreland City Council), Lorna Pitt (formerly councillor Melbourne City Council), and Janet Bolitho (former chair of the Local Sustainability Accord with the Labor Government (State).

Bookings can be made by visiting the Strathbogie Voices website.
