Events: September 2009 Archives

2010 will be a vital year in the history of climate change. In December 2009, the world meets in Copenhagen and must thrash-out formulae for reducing world carbon emissions if we are to avoid climate catastrophe.

In Newent we are holding a strategy meeting for all interested people on Saturday morning, November 7th to discuss how, in 2010 and beyond, Transition Newent can provide local solutions to the twin threats of climate change and peak oil, solutions that we hope will be re-inforced by the 'Copenhagen Agreement'. 

Come along and join in the discussion at Newent Community School, November 7th, 9.30 am to 1.00 pm.

As background to the meeting, John Tiere has put together a report entitled Transition Newent: Our Progress So Far. This document lists our activities to date and possible pointers to the direction we could be taking.
