About this event

What if the biggest problem facing humanity isn’t climate change itself, but instead, how we talk about it?

Join a panel of experts as they weigh up whether it’s smarter to engage the masses through their heart or their pockets. Consensus is divided over the best way to tackle climate change.

Do we forge ahead with ‘nature-based’ messaging – making the crisis an emotional, personal issue, using science and art to show how interconnected we are to the world around us? Or should we use a ‘business-based’ approach, one that focuses on taxation to punish environmental damage?

Hear from experts who have shifted the dial on climate change: Professor Tim Flannery, world-renowned conservationist and former Australian of the Year, and Anna Rose, activist and environmentalist and author of Madlands: A Journey to Change the Mind of a Climate Sceptic and Professor Martina Linnenluecke, internationally recognised expert on the strategic and financial implications of corporate adaptation and resilience to the impacts of client change and author of The Climate Resilient Organisation.

This venue has reserved seating for wheelchair users. For more information about access services, to book access tickets, or for assistance with booking, please email [email protected]
