David Spratt had always been obliquely aware of climate change, but then things changed and it became in interest, then a passion and in 2008 he co-authored the book "Climate Code Red" with Phillip Sutton.
David is not a climate scientist, but he has a deep and abiding interest in climate science and with a background on economics, and a little dedication, he can make sense of the science that unpins climate change, just as anyone else can who applies themself, he argues.
Working with Ian Dunlop, David has compiled and written many reports that have had a major impact on climate change education, both in Australia and around the world.
