Join Fenner Ben Bramble at The Book Cow for the launch of his latest book Lunacy. A compelling exploration of humanity's future in space, Lunacy challenges the growing push for extraterrestrial colonisation and argues that our greatest priority should be solving the problems here on Earth.
This talk examines Indigenous fisheries co-management in the Torres Strait, exploring its opportunities and limitations while arguing for governance that genuinely recognises Torres Strait Islander knowledge, authority, and decision-making.
Buildings are both a major contributor to climate change and highly vulnerable to its impacts. This seminar explores the relationship between buildings and climate change, focusing on energy use, material demand, carbon emissions, and climate-related risks. The talk will discuss how the building sector can contribute to mitigation and adaptation, and highlight pathways towards more sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon-built environments.
