Some items from Yesterdays meeting; From Miriam’s Minutes.
Election feedback
- Overall swing to Greens, many people disgruntled about lack of action on climate change
- Minority government may help to drive climate change policy
Feedback from events
- Wentworth Getup! Forum went really well. Standing room only. The audience came up with questions, so Greg didn’t ask any of ours.
- Walk Against Warming was good mood but not a large crowd in an election year. Maybe a tired strategy now. But clearly a need for ongoing mass presentation of people to keep in the public consciousness. Also needs to be at a politically relevant time, not just once a year by default.
- Beyond Zero Emissions, Zero Carbon Australia launch. Very well attended. Greg was able to meet the speakers.
