Population, Consumption & Climate Change with Ian Lowe, Jane O'Sullivan and Haydn Washington
Event description
“There is no possibility of achieving our stated goal of sustainable development if we don’t stabilise the human population and reduce our resource demands” Professor Ian Lowe
ABOUT OUR WEBINAR
In this webinar we'll have brave conversations about the tricky subjects of population and consumption.
