Changing Places invites people to upload contemporary or historic photos that show how anthropogenic climate change is changing places they know and love. We ask people to note how they feel about these changes. We also ask if these changes are influencing their thoughts about the role of people in the world. Have a look at the site: http://www.flickr.com/groups/changingplaces/. Changing Places offers a rare opportunity to discuss the cultural and emotional dimensions of global climate change, at a local scale. I'd be grateful if you could circulate this email throughout your networks. Many thanks, Dr George Main Curator National Museum of Australia Hello,

Keep an eye out for our announcement about our plans to progress the uptake of renewable energy by the Brimbank community, including and especially the city council.

I would be surprised to see Brimbank City Council being so progressive as to introduce the needed measures to reduce it emissions.

I've been really flat out over the past few weeks. Anyway, if you send out a notice about your meeting schedule for 2009 I'll endeavour to get along to a meeting. Hi Cathy,

We would really like to be associated with your site and will add you to our links and hope you will return the favor. We are also holding our AGM on November 29th between 2-3pm at the McKay Gardens in Sunshine (Anderson Road). We always welcome new members.
