Rising Tide climate justice speaking tour - Canberra

In February this year, the U.N. Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, said “2023 is a year of reckoning. We need disruption to end the destruction.”

This forum will discuss why we need a mass, disruptive movement and how we can build one that has the power to match the urgency of the climate crisis and achieve transformative change.

Speakers:

• David Pocock - Independent Senator
• Richard Denniss - Executive Director The Australia Institute
• Amy Blain - Australian Parents for Climate Action Canberra and Peoples' Climate Assembly
• Alexa Stuart - 19-year-old climate activist from Rising Tide Newcastle
