Climate Change in 5 minutes (and 20 slides)

by | Dec 1, 2012 | Blog | 1 comment

Liverpool seems to be brimming with opportunities to debate, discuss and learn at the moment.

In addition to Scibar, Philosophy in Pubs and all the great events going on at the Quaker Meeting House, another new forum for sharing ideas is Ignite Liverpool. The basic idea is to “enlighten people but make it quick”. Presenters are given five minutes to talk about a topic of their choice, and their slides are auto-advanced every 15 seconds to make sure they keep to time.

Pete North from Transition Liverpool recently took up the challenge and talked about why climate change matters for Liverpool.

The next Ignite Liverpool is on the 8th of February and you can book tickets here
