Are we too late to do anything about climate change? Many would argue that that’s the case, but are we even asking the right questions?

Thom provides a framework for thinking about our environmental challenges that balances realism with hope, scientific understanding with ancient wisdom, and immediate action with long-term adaptation.
There are still opportunities to participate in upcoming events in Sydney. You can find out more at thomknoles.com/sydney.
