Launch of Rotary Climate Action Group with Amanda McKenzie

The launch of a Climate Action Group will be the focus of Sydney Rotary Club's lunchtime meeting on 21 July along with guest speaker, climate crisis commentator Amanda McKenzie.

Amanda is the CEO and co-founder of the Climate Council, an independent climate change education and advocacy body. Previously, she co-founded the Australian Youth Climate Coalition and has served on Renewable Energy Expert Panels for the Queensland and Northern Territory governments. 

Amanda was the founding Chair of the Centre for Australian Progress and is a former Board Director at Plan International Australia and the Whitlam Institute. She has won numerous awards including being recognised as one of Westpac’s 100 Women of Influence and a finalist in Telstra Young Business Woman of the Year Awards. 

The aim of the new Rotary Climate Action Group will be to firstly look at the science and secondly to look at possible solutions (the “action” part of the name).
