Free admission, no need to register in advance.

The Woking LA21 Group hold a themed Annual General Meeting each year, which is open to any interested members of the public.  The event is supported by Woking Borough Council.  This year, George Marshall presents a fast moving, highly entertaining one man show based on his acclaimed book, Carbon Detox.
He will challenge your assumptions and help you to find fresh ways to deal with climate change.

Why is climate change often so boring
Why do polar bears leave us cold
How have plastic bags became a fetish
How can a spin in a Ferrari fit into a low carbon future
Why can smokers teach us anything we need to know
What is it like to ride the climate roller coaster
How can we find joy and thrive in a climate change world
....and not a graph in sight!

Carbon Detox argues that we must stop thinking about `saving the planet' and `giving things up'. Instead let's adopt a light-carbon lifestyle because it is the only smart, fun, healthy and modern way to live in the 21st century.

George Marshall is one of the most entertaining and inspirational environmental public speakers in Britain. He is founder of the charity the Climate Outreach and Information Network www.coinet.org.uk and appears regularly in newspapers and on television and radio . He has 20 years' experience in environmental research and campaigning and lives in Llanidloes.
