SUMMARY:Sustainability Shorts #7
DESCRIPTION:Looking for fresh perspectives and practical inspiration on environmental issues? Join us for our seventh Sustainability Shorts – an evening of sustainable ideas – on Wednesday 15th October at Percy Community Centre. The evening will feature six speakers\, each delivering a 10-minute talk\, followed by a short Q&A\, on their chosen sustainability topic. Expect a lively evening\, new ideas\, and plenty of opportunities to connect. You will hear a mix of ideas and perspectives on environmental and sustainability issues. \nOur speakers: \nJenny Lambert – Vet with over 30 years of experience and a strong passion for equality\, peace and protecting our precious world\, offers practical tips for caring for our pets\, wildlife\, and planet. \nStuart Reynolds – Emeritus Professor of Biology at the University of Bath\, on “Insect declines and what they mean for nature.” As you’ll see\, he believes that the Earth is a balanced\, dynamic system that includes both living and non-living materials\, and that humans are in some danger of disrupting this marvellous arrangement. He thinks that everyone needs to take more care not to make the planet uninhabitable for other species\, especially ‘the little things that run the world’. \nGhika Savva – Manager at the Student Community Partnership Team\, on the award-winning Pack for Good campaign with the British Heart Foundation. The project has just crossed the £1m mark in funds raised and over 570\,000 tonnes saved from landfill since the initiative was launched in Bath a decade ago. \nPete Capener – Co-founder and Managing Director\, Bath and West Community Energy\, will explain what Community Energy is\, why it matters\, and how it can directly benefit local people – from lowering carbon emissions to generating funds for community projects. \nNeil Howard – Researcher at the University of Bath and member of the Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) whose work focuses on build fairer systems for people and the planet. In his talk\, Neil will explore how Unconditional Basic Income connects to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). \nOlly Bannell – An active member of the Bath Area Growers Network\, Olly will discuss growing food at home\, shared gardens\, and understanding food miles\, as small but powerful actions to collectively make a huge difference to our environmental impact and community resilience. He will introduce ‘The Good Food Project CIC’\, a new community initiative being set up which would aim to grow fresh\, organic produce that will supply local food banks\, homeless shelters\, and community groups. \nWe will be serving tea and coffee during the break\, offering a chance to digest (both the talks and biscuits!) and connect with others. \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. \nGet your tickets
