GeekSpeak – How do we save our planet? Join the discussion on Saturday, August 27th at 12:00 pm Noon SLT

There are so many things that threaten Earth or life on Earth or human life on Earth.  What should be done about them all?  And what should we, as individuals, do about all the threats?

Climate change threatens all life.  Plastic pollution threatens all marine life and maybe all life.  Habitat destruction threatens thousands of species.  Pandemics and the dishonesty of Big Pharma threaten human life.  Then there is the threat of an asteroid hit, nuclear war, or a deliberate biological attack. 

What should we be doing?  Is there any hope?  Or maybe you don’t think there is any serious danger?  Or perhaps the only answer is to change the way our societies are run?

Come and join us in GeekSpeak on Saturday at noon SLT to discuss the danger we are in.  Bring anyone who is worried about it.

Saturday 17th July at noon SLT: GeekSpeak – Climate Change!


Last week there were extreme temperatures in Canada, the USA, and above the Arctic Circle.  There were stories of towns suddenly burning down and unprecedented loss of ice at the poles.  Are we now in ‘the worst-case scenario’ predicted by the IPCC?

What needs to be done?  What will our future be if we cut down on carbon emissions?  And what will it be if we don’t?

Will we see cities with all the streets covered to give some shade?  Or will we all live underground?  Or high up in the mountains?

Can we expect mass migrations, severe flooding in some areas , and severe droughts in others?  Is there any escape? Can the future be bright if we act now?

Come and discuss your future and your children’s future.  Bring all your kids.

GeekSpeak – Subject for Saturday 20th February at noon SLT: Climate change! Are we all going to die?

 


Are you worried about climate change?  Or do you think the danger has been exaggerated?  Or maybe that it is all a hoax?

If we assume that it is real then some very serious changes are going to hit the earth.  Some places will become much warmer, some much colder.  There will be severe rains where deserts used to be and drought in formerly wet countries.  How will the world cope with that?  How many will die?

Will countries be able to work together to host millions of climate refugees?  Will some countries become completely uninhabitable, unless you can live under kilometres of ice or at the bottom of the sea?

Will undersea cities perhaps be the answer.  Or sky cities?  Or should we all move into space?  Turn on the doom scenario in your mind and show it to us!  Bring your friends.

GeekSpeak – how should we prepare for a global warming disaster? Saturday , Sept. 17th 12pm SLT





Last week NASA published a new report on climate change.  They say we have only five short years left before a runaway greenhouse effect starts on earth.  If we can’t stop it, we should prepare for it.  So what should we do?

We may be facing enormous floods, massive extinctions, millions of climate refugees, wars to keep out climate refugees, food shortages because of failed crops and cities sinking underwater because of rising sea levels.

Is there any place where we can survive global warming?  Antarctica is a huge continent.  When all the ice has gone maybe we should go and live there.

What plans do you have for the future?  Don’t be scared, be prepared.  Come and prepare with us at GeekSpeak.
