Are you looking for a space to have real conversations, with real people about our environment and what we can do to protect it? 

The Northern Beaches ACF Community Group is running a regular Book Club to connect with people of all ages and backgrounds on all things climate change, nature, and our local environment.    

This month's book is Under a White Sky: The Nature of the Future by Elizabeth Kolbert.

Author of the international bestseller The Sixth Extinction, Elizabeth Kolbert returns to humanity's transformative impact on the environment, now asking - After doing so much damage, can we change nature, this time to save it? In her trademark persuasive and darkly comic prose, Kolbert introduces myriad innovations that offer ways to avert disaster - or may produce new disasters, ones that haven't been and perhaps cannot be anticipated. This book examines how the very sorts of interventions that have imperilled our planet are increasingly seen as the only hope for its salvation.

The Details:

When: Tuesday, 22 February 2022
Time: 6:30pm – 7:30pm 
Where: This event will be held online over Zoom, please RSVP to receive the Zoom link. 
Book: Under a White Sky: The Nature of the Future by Elizabeth Kolbert
You can find the book at Dymocks, or on Booktopia as an e-Book, or check your local library! 
RSVP: Please RSVP to receive the Zoom link.

Feel free to share this link with your friends and family on the Northern Beaches, the more people involved in the conversation, the more we can achieve. 

We can't wait to see you there!
