Hi everyone, here we are on the second day of Sustainability Week and there's much going on up in fishponds on St. Matts Campus if your in the area:

The SU bar will be playing host to stalls including; Permaculture, organic growing, seed swaps, ethical campaigning and Transition Towns. Come and find out what it's all about!

at 4pm Sarah Pugh from Transition Bristol will be giving a talk about peak oil and community based solutions to energy and food security. A powerful introduction to the challenges that we face- inspiring, not depressing!

at 2:30 pm there will be a film being shown in the bar leading up to sarahs talk- 'the power of community' looking at how cuba coped with a loss of oil supply from soviet russia- this is widely deemed as the 'canary in the coal mine' for what might lie ahead for the rest of the world...

People and Planet will be there running 'carbon calculators' allowing you to work out the CO2 emissions from your everyday activities- how odes your carbon footprint compare to your mates?

Hope to see you there!

PS- No meeting tonight
