David Ramsden MBE

Climate and Ecological Crisis? What’s all the fuss about? is a presentation by David Ramsden MBE, an experienced and many say “inspirational” speaker.

Want to know the answers to questions like;

What’s the big deal anyway? There’s nothing new about extreme weather events. These things have always happened. Even if our climate is changing a bit, what does it matter (?) and how do we know it’s man-made?

...then why not attend David’s talk? It’s a great way to find out.

David, has been talking about and researching climate change for more than 36 years which has helped him to put together this informative talk which provides an easy-to-follow introduction to the whole subject and the solutions some people are proposing. It is aimed primarily at people who don’t understand our global situation, and people who think they do, but have done little or nothing about it.

Admission £1.50 to members and guests to cover the cost of refreshments. If you would like to come along, you’re very welcome.
