Power Shift
Do you want to learn more about Climate Change,
its affect on the world's poor and join the wave of Aussies fired up about saving our planet? Yes? Power Shift is for you!
What is Power Shift?
Power Shift is Australia's first national youth climate summit.
Coming to the University of Western Sydney on July 11 - 13, 2009
This summit is a key event for us as young Australians prior to the United Nations Climate Negotiations in Copenhagen later this year. Those negotiations are the follow-up to the Kyoto Agreement way back in 1997.
Despite the fact that many of the Power Shift 'Summitters' were still in Primary school in '97, there is hope that things can be different this time around.
What's the connection to STIR?
