2008 PROGRAMME OF EVENTS

Professor Midwinter's Lecture "What is the truth about Climate Change?"

Professor Midwinter's talk covered some most compelling data showing that the climate of our planet is indeed changing, and certainly gave some very serious food for thought to those of us who attended.
