Hosted by the University of Ballarat, in conjunction with Ballarat Renewable Energy and Zero Emissions (BREAZE) this presentation will be an opportunity to listen to Dr Mark Diesendorf , author of Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy.

Dr Diesendorf teaches, researches and consults in the interdisciplinary fields of sustainable energy, sustainable urban transport, theory of sustainability, ecological economics, and practical processes by which government, business and other organisations can achieve ecologically sustainable and socially just development.

His book Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy assesses the various technologies that have been put forward as solutions to the greenhouse crisis, including efficient energy use, renewable energy, coal with the capture and burial of CO2, gas and transport systems. It then proposes a set of strategies, scenarios and policies for implementing those technologies that are genuinely ecologically sustainable.
