What if? asks Andrew Simms
policy director of the new economics foundation and author
of Tescopoly and Do good lives have to cost the earth?

light refreshments from 6.00pm

Food, life, resilience and the great transition
The credit crunch, fuel and food price rises, the looming reality
of runaway climate change and critical resource depletion – how did we get into this mess? In the face of so many simultaneous crises we all have legitimate questions for the governments who allowed us to sleepwalk into this situation. Andrew Simms will look at the challenges that face us – and how a great transition to a different sort of economy might just offer a sustainable future for us all.
