at Bovey Climate Action
Kate gave a really entertaining talk at Riverside Mill in Bovey Tracey – she became the cartoon characters in her book and really brought it to life. The talk was one of the events put on by Bovey Climate Action who have plenty more coming up see their website on www.boveyclimateaction.org.uk
Climate Change science is extremely complicated but over 2,000 scientists that make up the IPCC (International Panel on Climate Change) are of one voice that the acceleration of climate change is down to our actions. Our actions have got us into this mess and it is only by our actions that we can hope to slow and hopefully reverse the affects. The trouble is that most people are in complete denial, especially politicians.
Kate impressed on us the urgency to do
something about it. We must take things into our own hands and be the
change we want to see.The talk ended with a quote from Gandhi.
“Whatever you do will be insignificant, it is very important that you do it”
The evening ended with a general
discussion and I invited people from Bovey to visit Proper Job and will
be arranging a visit soon – South Brent are also very intersted in
visiting.
