SUMMARY:Sustainability Shorts #6
DESCRIPTION:We will be holding our sixth evening of the Sustainability Shorts lecture series in the centre of Bath at the Percy Community Centre in New King Street. \nThe evening is designed to be engaging\, snappy and entertaining\, with six speakers talking for ten minutes each on their chosen sustainability subject. There will be five minutes for Q&A after each speaker\, then it’s on to the next! You are guaranteed to hear something new and something you can work with from our varied speakers. \nOur six speakers are as follows: \nSheila Gundry\, Head of Operations at Froglife and Charlcombe Road Toad Patroller\nWe are really fortunate to have a thriving toad population at Charlcombe Lane in Bath. Sheila Gundry\, Head of Operations at wildlife charity Froglife and local environmentalist\, will explore the vital role of toads and other amphibians for healthy ecosystems\, discuss the contribution of volunteers from Bath Toad Rescue\, and compare challenges and successes with the national picture. \nStephen Clarke\, Extinction Rebellion Bath\, explaining XR UK’s perspective on what makes a non-violent\, direct action organisation sustainable. \nRuth Lambert\, CEO of Share and Repair- a charity helping people across Bath and North East Somerset save money and the planet through repairing\, reusing and reducing. \nAnna Hughes\, Director\, Flight Free UK\nWhy should we be avoiding air travel? And how can we practically do that? Anna’s talk will look at the alternatives and give plenty of tips and ideas. \nPaula Malone\, Climate Fresk facilitator and children and young people’s educator \nA Climate Fresk workshop turns climate science into a game – the playful and collaborative workshop teaches participants the fundamental science behind climate change and empowers you to take action. The idea is to create a network of people who can pass on a high level of climate education to help guide us to a low carbon world. Paula will also talk about how we are doing our children and young people a huge disservice by not a) educating them about the world around them and how it’s changing\, and b) empowering them to recognise and realise the power and agency that they have to create positive change. \nSkye Pennant\, The Slow Stitch Club \nSkye will talk about the importance of mending. a hugely creative and intentionally slow and therapeutic skill. Part of the joy of visible mending is celebrating the stitches you make no matter how wonky they may be. By using contrasting colours of threads and patches on our clothes we can turn the damage into a scrapbook of our lives lived in them. Whether they’re from fast fashion brands or handmade by you\, our favourite clothes deserved to be worn and loved and repaired for as long as possible. \nWe will be serving tea and coffee during the break (there may even be biscuits)\, so plenty of fuel will be on offer to help you to keep up with the pace! \nTickets are free\, but we’d be grateful for a donation if you can manage it\, so we can continue to run events like this one.
