Tim Flannery in Conversation with Anne Summers
An evening with popular environmentalist Tim Flannery.
Overview
In his first major public appearance since the Abbott government's abolition of the Climate Commission, scientist, writer and environmentalist Tim Flannery will be chewing the fat with journalist and publisher Anne Summers in the second chapter of her popular conversation series.
Summers will be talking to Flannery, whose 2005 book The Weather Makers profoundly impacted the public conversation around climate change, about a range of environmental issues including the recent heatwaves in Southern Australia. The professor will also be taking unscripted questions from the audience for 30 minutes following the conversation.
This should be an interesting night for anyone interested in the future of the newly formed, publicly funded Climate Council, or for those who enjoyed last year's conversations between Summers and former Prime Minister Julia Gillard.
