Event Description
Special Presentation by Dr. Noel Brown, Friends of the United Nations
Climate Change presents an unprecedented challenge for the planet and must be addressed by humankind as a whole. Over half of the world’s population is now living in cities and this proportion is steadily increasing. The building of model low-carbon cities is a critical step in responding to this challenge.
Come and learn how we can do this.
