Newcastle Book Event: 'Right Here, Right Now: How women can lead the way in the climate emergency'
Event description
Join us on Tuesday, December 13 for a very special Newcastle Book Event with Natalie Isaacs.
'Right Here, Right Now: How women can lead the way in the climate emergency'.
This critical decade is simultaneously a time for alarm and a time for great hope. We have to act like our own lives and the futures of everyone we love depends on it. Because that’s the truth. And it’s what this book is about.
‘What beautiful storytelling straight from the heart. This is a rallying call to women everywhere to be part of the solution for the climate crisis.’ Mary Robinson, former President of Ireland and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Impassioned yet clear-eyed, Natalie sets out what we as a community and as individuals can achieve in this decade and shares the wisdom of women who have inspired her, from local community leaders to international leaders, First Nations Elders to scientists, and activist campaigners to policymakers. The good news is, it is all possible -- we just have to unite as never before and get it done. Right here, right now.
ON THE NIGHT:
Natalie will share her personal story and set out what we all can do in this decade as a community, in conversation with the fabulous Christina Gerakiteys, CEO of UtopiaX, Founder of IdeaSparx, Creativity and Innovation Expert and Expert Advisor for WAVIA.
‘This book is my outpouring of the knowledge and understanding I've gained over the 12 years I've been acting on climate change. My journey into our climate reality has been a transformative personal experience. It's been the greatest awakening of my life.’ Natalie Isaacs, Founder of 1 Million Women.
