Northcote climate Q & A video now available

Video is now available from a Climate Change Q & A held last Monday at Northcote Town Hall for local candidates in the 2010 Victorian State election. The event was organised by Darebin Climate Action Now, where links to all the Q & A presentations have now been published.

The presenters included Labor's Northcote MP and 2010 candidate, Fiona Richardson, the Liberal  Northcote candidate, Steve Moran, myself, the Greens candidate, Anne Martinelli, and independent Upper House candidate for the Northern Metropolitan Region, Adrian Whitehead. 

Read the original post about the event, and, if you like, my presentation notes. There are also lots of posts about climate change available on this blog.

Of course you may then like to read Fiona Richardson's Goldilocks theory about the Victorian Government's climate action plan, or my analysis of Labor's tactics for communicating about climate change.

Finally, don't forget to read about my other policies as well!

Darebin Safe Climate Forum

Last Thursday night I attended the Safe Climate Forum organised by Darebin Climate Action Now. At the forum David Spratt gave an engaging and quite compelling presentation on the impacts of climate change in the Himalayas, as well as more broadly here in Australia. The light wasn't great, but I capatured the following video of David's talk. Further video will appear here shortly.



Also speaking at the event were engineer, Tim Forcey, on energy solutions, and climate-savvy comedian, Rod Quantock, who was very funny on Penny Wong shortening the AFL footy season, John Howard spoiling our Ashes chances with his terrible climate policies, and why we should eat New Zealand meat-promoting actor, Sam Neill. I got some video of Tim, but the battery on my green-power charged video camera conked out before Rod came on - sorry about that, folks.

Update: I've now got Tim's video done, and here it is - enjoy.
