Climate Change talks on Second Nature

Just a quick, and perhaps rather belated note, to let you know that there is a series of lectures on Climate Change on the Second Nature island of Second Life. Two have already taken place, and there will be another two next week.

This is a good excuse to create an avatar and make your way to Second Nature.

Quoting from Joanna’s blog

“To co-incide with the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Bali next week, we will be holding a special series of events in Second Life.
The UN conference runs from the 3rd – 14th of December, and over that fortnight, Second Nature will play host to a range of speakers including Dr Simon Buckle, Director of Climate Change Policy at the Grantham Institute for Climate Change ; Dr Tara LaForce, Imperial College on her research on carbon capture and storage and George Monbiot, Guardian columnist and author of Heat: How to stop the planet burning.”
