Driving a contradiction all the way to Euroa

T

his Saturday (April 11) I will drive to Euroa for the next in the series of the Strathbogie Voices “Conversations”.

Former CEO of VicSuper,
Bob Welsh, will speak at
Euroa on Saturday.

Like most others, outside a few locals who will walk, I will drive.

There appears to be a strange disconnect, for Saturday’s session at the Kirkland Av flour mill see much discussion about climate change and how it will impact on our lives.

Driving a car about 80kms for the return journey is precisely the wrong thing to do.

In a somewhat utopian and ideal world, all of us from out of town eager to attend the Euroa conversation should be able to travel to and fro on a public transit system powered by batteries, charged through solar energy.

However, drive it will be.

Saturday’s Conversation will see the former CEO of VicSuper, Bob Welsh, explaining “What climate change has to do with my superannuation”.

Those keen to hear Bob and be a part of the Euroa conversation should visit the Strathbogie Voices website to register.
