Bill McGibbon - Global Warming Forum
A few weeks back i was fortunate to attend the Bill McKibbon Forum in Melbourne 'Do the Math'. Bill was in full force giving a succinct assessment of where the science on climate change is at and the call to action.
He gave a strong argument that made sense on so many levels particularly the economics.
There is already a movement made up of cross sectional, multi-age and diverse cultures...this isn't a green issue- it's a humanity issue.
A recent film (40 mins) by 350.org outlines the argument at:

The event also yet again catalysed for me the role art and artists can play to engage and educate the community, and provide another social perspective to influence our response to this issue.
Special thanks to Climarte Arts for a Safe Climate for arranging tickets to event.
