I would like to invite you to attend a free, interactive Earthcast on how individuals can address climate change by changing
their behaviour and inspiring change in others.

In the
second of two Earthcasts to address sustainable practices in everyday life the
authors of The Power of
Sustainable Thinking and The Economical Environmentalist
will give you the opportunity to learn how to think and behave more
sustainably, develop ways to inspire change in others and get first-hand advice
on the practicalities of living sustainably everyday.
Bob Doppelt will take
attendees though a series of ‘staged-based’ methods for transforming
thinking and behaviour, beginning with the audience’s own cognitive patterns,
before moving on to how individuals can motivate other people and organisations
to change.
Prashant Vaze will then
provide guidance from his own experience on managing the practicalities of
living in a sustainable way every day.
Bob Doppelt is
director of Resource Innovations and The Climate Leadership Initiative in the
Institute for a Sustainable Environment, and courtesy associate professor in
the Department of Planning, Public Policy, and Management at the University of
Oregon, US.
Prashant Vaze is
an environmental economist and former policy maker. He worked for 15 years in
the UK’s Office of Climate Change, the Prime Minister's Strategy Unit and the
Department of the Environment.
