Low carbon living talk 29 February

Prashant Vaze who wrote the book "The Economical Environmentalist" is coming to Wood Green library tomorrow Wednesday 29 February to talk about the real costs of taking action to reduce your carbon footprint. The book is written in chatty style and Prashant is realistic about how much an individual can do - but if we ALL do something, we can achieve a lot. If people want to discuss the talk after the formal meeting finishes we plan to move to Spouter's Corner, the Wetherspoon pub up towards Wood Green tube station. This should make for an informative and amusing evening. It also supports the campaign that the Council are running to raise awareness of how lifestyles affect carbon emissions, with a view to reducing emissions in the Borough by 40% (from 2009 levels) by 2020.
