How will climate change affect social change? This question will be explored in a free public lecture at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Dubbo on Wednesday 15 September. Dr Bruce Fell, lecturer in the School of Communication and Creative Industries at CSU in Bathurst, will examine the implications of climate change in his presentation titled Climate change means social change: How film, television and the Internet can help, from 6pm in room 422. He says, “The literature on global ecological degradation is substantial, but the reasons western society is having difficulty coming to terms with the issue is less understood. Understanding the relationship between humans, ecological awareness and ‘the screen’, particularly television, is more central to our personal and community well-being than is currently given credit”.
