Sweltering cities

Conservation Council ACT and Region event

As our climate changes, Canberra will increasingly face more heat waves made worse by the urban heat island effect, which is exacerbated by poor design and over-development. Heat waves can become heat emergencies that can be deadly, particularly for disadvantaged parts of the community.

Join us for this discussion with Emma Bacon, founder and Executive Director of Sweltering Cities to discuss how extremes of heat will effect Canberra and what we can do about it.

Free, registration required.
