Leading writer on climate change, and 2007 Australian of the year, Tim Flannery will be in conversation with Michael Stoddart, Professor Emeritus at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies.

The conversation will focus on Tim’s latest book, which investigates the huge impact the European continent has had in forming the world as we know it.

Europe: A Natural History looks both at the diverse geological makeup of the Continent, and the way in which, over the centuries, it has received countless immigrant species and transformed them.
