  For example, spring yields rhubarb; summer ushers in a bounty of frui
 ts and vegetables; apples rule autumn while winter supplies root veget
 ables. Imagine if all this were to change.\n\nBy 2050, global agro-eco
 systems are projected to undergo rising temperatures and CO2 levels, e
 rradic water availability and an increase of extreme weather events. J
 oin presenters Tara Moreau and Tegan Adams who will introduce the scie
 nce of climate change, examine the projected impacts on farming, highl
 ight solutions for regional agriculture and explore individual actions
  for a low carbon diet.\n\nWhere: SPEC Demonstration Centre (2150 Mapl
