Hey guys,

For those interested there is a Zero Carbon Australia Report launch and
presentation on Wednesday night (6-8pm):Location:
Basement Theatre, The Spot, Melbourne University
Street:
198 Berkeley St
Town/City:
Melbourne, Australia

This cutting-edge plan, the culmination of over 12 months and thousands of
hours of pro bono work by engineers, scientists and postgraduate students,
is a collaboration between the climate solutions think tank Beyond Zero
Emissions, and the University of Melbourne Energy Institute.

This plan is unique in Australia. It is a detailed and costed blueprint for
transitioning our stationary energy sector to 100% renewable energy in ten
years. The technologies utilised in this plan are commercially available
now. It has been put together in a collaborative way involving over 50
technical experts.

This free public lecture will cover the details of the plan as well as the
state of renewable energy in Australia more broadly. A panel discussion will
follow the presentations.

Speakers:
John Daley (CEO, Grattan Institute)
Keith Lovegrove (Solar Thermal Group Leader, ANU)
Lane Crockett (General Manager, Pacific Hydro)
Matthew Wright (Director Beyond Zero Emissions)

The full report will be made available for the first time on 14 July, free
to download from the Beyond Zero Emissions website or hard copy for
purchase.

I think it would be great for some of us to attend possibly after the
excursion to Mornington for the community garden.
