19:30 | A World Rebooted by Ruth Valerio (Gaia: online) | Hope for Creation: Building a Greener Future TogetherWednesday 21 October 7.30pm to 8.30pmOnline Environment Symposium Lecture A World Rebooted by Ruth ValerioIn lockdown, there have been positive surprises in the midst of the pain. We saw renewed community life as we organised ourselves to help neighbours and look out for each other. We placed a new value on people who sometimes go unnoticed: delivery drivers, supermarket workers, refuse collectors, NHS workers. We rediscovered how important nature is to our wellbeing and saw nature thrive and pollution levels drop. And we learnt that in a crisis we really can act and change ingrained habits. Will we hold on to those positives or go back to the ‘old normal’? We know the old normal was leading to environmental catastrophe and harming countless numbers of people, around the world and in the UK. We now have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reboot our economy in a fair, sustainable way – so that it works for everyone and protects the environment. | |

Making the piece has involved The Multi-Story Orchestra, three opera soloists and a virtual choir formed of hundreds of young people and community groups from Gloucester and Southwark. Join us on 29 October 2020 to hear the whole performance, and to watch a digital animation set to its soundtrack by Mary Martins. | |

Meanwhile the Environment Bill 2019 has focused minds on the ambition for ‘Net Zero’ carbon reduction that covers all our direct and indirect emissions. The Net Zero challenge is complex but the appetite for change is clear – sustainability is the imperative that no individual or industry can afford to ignore. Join us for this business-focused session with expert speakers from four different organisations sharing their latest plans and delivery issues for Mission Net Zero.
