Joëlle Gergis: Highway to Hell

Thursday 6 June, 6.30pm
Readings Hawthorn

Please note: this event has changed locations

Join us to hear leading climate scientist, Dr. Joëlle Gergis, discuss her latest Quarterly Essay, Highway to Hell.

Australia is in peril. Do we truly grasp the impact of a warming planet – in particular, what it will mean for our sunburnt country? As temperatures rise, the climates of our capital cities will change. The sea will rise, and we will see increased fire and drought.

Nick Feik will join Gergis in conversation.

Free, but bookings are essential.

Please book here.

Location
Hawthorn, Wurundjeri Country, 687 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn
