Public meeting: Law vs desire: Will force or obedience save the planet from climate change?

Thursday, June 14, 2012 - 18:30

In the midst of the current climate crisis something needs to change. That something is us. How to produce the kind of behavioural change required in populations to save the planet may be a question of law, a question of desire or even a question of force. Do we need tyrants or do we need anarchy? Do we need increased policing and surveillance or do we need local, collaborative initiatives? Speakers: Dave Kerin (Earthworker Cooperative); Peter Christoff (Melbourne University); Robyn Eckersley (Melbourne University); Marianne Constable (University of Berkeley). 6:30pm. Melbourne Brain Centre Auditorium, The Kenneth Myer Building (No. 144), cnr Royal Parade & Genetics Lane, Melbourne University. To register visit Law vs Desire. Registration closes 3 hours prior to the event.
