Global communities have arrived at a critical crossroads. The planet is heating up at a historically unprecedented rate and the ecological conditions sustaining vast species, including our own, are poised at irreversible tipping points. Time is up to avoid climate and ecological catastrophe. In such dire circumstances, ‘business as usual’ – and by extension ‘politics as usual’ – can no longer be accommodated. The Extinction Curve charts the dynamics of the economic and social relations driving this perilous climate endgame.

Rob White will be in conversation with regular columnist for the Mercury, writing on energy and climate change, Peter Boyer OAM.

Join them at the RACV Hotel.
