ECO Annual Conference 2017

Environmental Responsibilities and Democracy for the Future: Limits, Pathways and Actions

ENVIRONMENT AND CONSERVATION ORGANISATIONS OF AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND (ECO), August 2017

What should we ask of our selves and our politicians for today and for the future? Where do the political parties stand on climate change, biodiversity, and water quality?

ECO’s annual conference in Nelson explored these issues with some fantastic speakers. Issues explored included the biophysical and political and other limits and which pathways to take and the actions needed to get success in protecting water, biodiversity and the climate for now and the future.

Keynote speakers included Sir Geoffrey Palmer who devised the Resource Management Act and is now proposing a constitution for New Zealand, Paul Young from Generation Zero on the Zero Carbon Bill, and others. See below for more information on speakers and the programme, including field trips.
