A compelling discussion of how we will cope without fossil fuels. With the UK government targeting to reduce CO2 emissions 90% by 2050, whilst backing plans to build 7 new coal-fired power stations, what are we to make of the situation? Will non-renewable resources really run out? And if so, what can and should we do about it?

Speakers:
Oliver Tickell: Freelance Climate Change Journalist, Author of Kyoto2
Chris Goodall: Green Party Candidate for Oxford West and Abingdon, Columnist for the Independent on Sunday and author of How to Live a Low-Carbon Life
Paul Brannen: Head of Campaigns at Christian Aid, former Head of Company and Sector Communications in the Global Research Department of HSBC.
WDM Representative (TBC)
