The World I Want

Join us as we try to weigh up the value of Earth's biodiversity and discuss what you want to protect for the future.


Have you ever really stopped to think about what our world will look like in 50 years, or even what we want it to look like? With growing populations and changing climate, the planet's biodiversity will undoubtedly suffer. The question is, how much are we willing to lose? We can't save everything, so difficult decisions need to be made based on what we value most. Is it maintaining our current lifestyle or trying to conserve our environment for future generations?

Join us for an evening of debate as we try to weigh up the value and importance of Earth's biodiversity and begin to unpick some of the real choices that need to be made by us all in order to protect it... or not.
