This fun, social idea came out of the 10 year celebration/future forum last November — We are inviting sustainability interest groups together for a social gathering called ‘Green Drinks’.

Join us for a special evening with Professor Ian Lowe AO and CCWA President Carmen Lawrence AO to explore the history of the nuclear industry in Australia.
This is an important time to reflect on the nuclear industry and Australia's role in it - and we can't think of two better people to do that with!
70 years ago the British government tested their first nuclear weapon, in Australia, off the coast of WA at the Montebello Islands.
