G'day SEE-Changers! Having lived in Canberra, on and off, for the past 30 years, I've seen a lot of change. Some of it has seen Canberra reaching its potential as the national capital and a planned city-state, a bit aloof from other metropolitan areas. Part of it has been watching a slow decline in the natural environment, as growth and drought outpaced sensible decision making.

SEE-Change is running another solar bulk buy! This time it is based around Faith organisations in the ACT and after an extensive expressions of interest process, we have selected Bega-based company, Pyramid Power (www.pyramidpower.com.au) to co-ordinate the bulk buy. Their experience organising Clean Energy for Eternity's 900-strong solar bulk buy in Bega was a contributing factor to our decision.

On 4 August 2009 at Manning Clark House in Forrest, Southside SEE-Changers listened to two of Canberra’s finest minds present a cutting-edge approach to achieving climate change and sustainability goals.

Prof Will Steffen, Executive Director of ANU’s Climate Change Institute, gave a talk entitled ‘Meeting the Climate Change Challenge: A Vision for Canberra and the Region’.

Our very own Prof Bob Douglas AO spoke about ‘What will a carbon-neutral Canberra look like and what will it take to bring it about?’ 

A small working group of interested SEE-Change members met this morning to consider ways in which SEE-Change could work effectively with religious communities in Canberra which have an interest in environmental issues. We have the capacity to enrol corporate members and a number of church groups are known to be considering such membership.

Simone Annis was one of the presenters at the May 2009 Talk Trash! evening organised by the Inner North SEE-Change group. Simone has kindly made this booklet available to SEE-Change. See: Talk Trash Booklet
