Tomorrows World - 2 years later 

Tuesday 27 November, Bermagui Community Centre, in the hall, 10-12.

Two years ago U3A organised a seminar on Global Warming and the impact this would have on the South Coast region. There has been a shocking acceleration of heating in these two years. It has amazed scientists, but completely bypassed politicians. The IPCC and a large panel of scientists have given us less than a dozen years to get our act together, which means reducing fossil fuel consumption to virtually zilch. Otherwise, they warn that we will enter a "hothouse earth" in which feedback loops will continue to heat the planet up to 5 or 6C, or even more.

The political and commercial likelihood of actually doing this in time, especially considering the past 30 years of inaction and the fruitlessness of the Paris Accord etc, is most probably also zilch. From this perspective, it is now urgent that we prepare ourselves for the future that is coming. In this, I believe, the South Coast has more advantages than almost any other place on earth. The EcoPlatform Group has been formed down here to see how best to do this. 

The first part of the talk addresses the dramatic change in the situation over the past 24 months. The second considers the feasibility of survival, and the third on how we on the South Coast may carry this out.
