SUMMARY:Wildlife of the Southern Ocean
DESCRIPTION:Why a trip to the Sub Antarctic Islands?  It was a personal interest trip to see the southern part of New Zealand. The talk will give an impression of visiting the islands from a novice’s point of view. The islands we visited were Campbell Island\, Auckland Islands and the Snares.  A great resource for the islands is the book “Galapagos of the Antarctic” by Rodney Russ and Aleks Terauds. \nLesley grew up in Christchurch and attended the University of Canterbury where she earned a BSc Hons degree in geology. Since it was 1970\, she could not get a job in New Zealand\, so ended up in the outback of Western Australia working for a mining company looking for nickel. Next she married an American and moved to California where she attended the University of California at Berkeley earning a MS in Engineering Geology. Then it was back to New Zealand where her daughter and son were born. The stay was short lived\, and the family relocated to northern California in 1980. Lesley reinvented herself as a teacher and spent twenty years teaching special education in the public school system. She was active with the Boy Scouts while her son grew up in the programme. Lesley has always been active as a volunteer in her community such as being on committees and doing gardening projects. Finally\, after her retirement\, three of the family relocated back to New Zealand and have made a home in Nelson. \nTalk is at 2pm on Sunday 1st of June. \nMeet in the Activities Room\, Nelson Public Library. \nCost: $3. Pay at the door or you can direct credit 03-1354-0183881-00

SUMMARY:To EV or not to EV\, that is the question. When and why might it make sense to buy an electric car? by Lindsay Wood
DESCRIPTION:The Nelson Institute presents a talk by Lindsay Wood: To EV or not to EV\, that is the question. When and why might it make sense to buy an electric car?  \nWith advances in the range of electric vehicles\, a snowballing range of available models\, and progressive improvements in the charging infrastructure\, people are increasingly asking when is the right time to switch to an EV. This talk will background the quest to electrify our vehicle fleet\, explore some of the upsides and downsides\, and compare choices for buying and running EVs and fossil fuel cars. Expect some surprises! \n \n\n\n\n\n\nLindsay Wood is director of climate strategy company Resilienz\, and its sister company Clearcut Calculators. He “specialises in being a generalist”\, in interpreting the science and technology of climate for the general public\, and in seeking “multiplier effects” in the quest to make our society more climate responsible. He writes and broadcasts regularly\, including Climate Matters (a “free\, fortnightly and always just one page” newsletter that goes out to some 5000 readers)\, and has developed software tools that make it easy to compare EVs. \n\n\n  \nFor further information: Nigel Costley at costleymarr@xtra.co.nz or 03 543 3101.
