The University Department of Rural Health invites you to attend a free and open community event – a talk by Professor David Karoly titled ‘Climate Change: What exactly does the latest science mean for the planet and our island state?’ to be held on Friday 26 Nov 6-8pm (see flyer below for details on how to book).
Professor David Karoly is world renowned Professor of Meteorology and an ARC Federation Fellow in the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Melbourne. He is an expert in climate change science and was involved, through several different roles, in the preparation of the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released in 2007. The IPCC was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007, jointly with Al Gore.
Professor Karoly will be speaking at
Hobart: Stanley Burbury Theatre, University Centre, Sandy Bay
Launceston: via video-link (Level 3, Anne O’Byrne Centre, cnr Howick and Charles Sts).
Other more venues can be made available on request.
I will be chairing a public discussion after David’s talk, during which members of the audience can ask their own questions about climate change.
