Climate Change Series: Renewables and Limited Natural Resources

Join Associate Professor James Hopeward to consider a solution to climate change that takes inspiration from around the world.

Is the move from fossil fuels a simple matter of investing in more renewables or is a deeper change needed that means altering our way of life?

In this talk Professor Hopeward will explore the supply and demand of our natural resources and the concept of limits to growth. He will share realistic, evidence-based solutions to these challenging and complex problems.

This event is FREE and brought to you by the City of Adelaide in partnership with UniSA.
