Why vs. Why: Nuclear Power with Ian Lowe and Barry Brook

Readings Hawthorn, Woiwurrung Country, 687 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn, Victoria, 3122

Why vs. Why is a new series of flip-sided books by Pantera Press, which pits two rival experts against each other on hot topics. To celebrate the release of the first book on Nuclear Power we have set up a debate; both writers are environmentalist activists but with different points of view. Prof Ian Lowe will argue no, while Prof Barry Brooks will tell us why nuclear power is a good idea.

Professor Barry Brook holds the Foundation Sir Hubert Wilkins Chair of Climate Change at the University of Adelaide and Professor Ian Lowe AO is emeritus professor of science, technology and society at Griffith University in Brisbane, as well as being an adjunct professor at Sunshine Coast University and Flinders University.

Ian is the president of Australian Conservation Foundation also. Join us for a very highly charged discussion. (A great event for students and passionate supporters of environmental change…hmm all of us?)
