Winter Lecture by Ben Collins and Victoria Waller
On Wednesday 1st March we're delighted to be welcoming Ben Collins and Victoria Waller.
‘Climate Change’ is the number one issue on many minds. There is plenty of confusing debate in the media and in everyday conversation. The presentation covers the ‘basics’ of global warming in an accessible and engaging format, including some dynamic ‘
kitchen sink’ demonstrations to bring the topic to life.
Ben Collins BSc MA is a retired local scientist and teacher with a background in Earth Sciences. He describes himself as a ‘
citizen scientist’ volunteering in the local community, explaining to lay audiences the science of our natural environment.
Victoria Waller BA MA is a local geographer with an interest in the impact of climate change and in particular our local weather patterns.
