SUMMARY:What hope for cooks and forests dying in Africa?
DESCRIPTION:This will be a meeting held via Zoom.  Bill Powell  was to have spoken at our April meeting about the need for cleaner and more efficient cooking methods using farm and forestry waste in Uganda\, including demonstrating a stove that he had seen used; but unfortunately the meeting couldn’t go ahead because of the pandemic.  We have now arranged for him to talk to us online and answer questions.\nLockdown didn’t only stop the UK in its tracks\, it also came to Uganda\, with all education closed.  This left an instructor from the main forestry college stuck in Kampala and running out of money.  Benedictor Waniala is an expert on many kinds of biomass stove and suddenly had time to work closely with Bill\, who together with his family paid Benedictor to build ten large efficient family stoves of a kind used in remote areas of Latin America. \nBill will describe some of the  people and cookstove projects he has been involved with in Uganda.  Actual demonstrations of stoves will have to be postponed of course! \n \nTo take part in this meeting\, please email greengroupssss@gmail.com using the heading ‘Africa talk’\, and the Zoom link will be sent to you just before the meeting.  If you haven’t used Zoom before there are tutorials on their website\, or on YouTube.

SUMMARY:The Time is Now virtual lobby S Cambs now 29 June!
DESCRIPTION:THE TIME IS NOW: VIRTUAL LOBBY FOR A HEALTHY\, GREEN & FAIR RECOVERY \n(TUESDAY 30 JUNE) \nSTOP PRESS: We are delighted to report that Anthony Browne has arranged a Zoom meeting for the South Cambs constituency at 4.00 pm on Monday 29 June.  It is not too late to register\, as below.  You are not obliged to ask a question\, but a large turnout will be indicative of the strength of feeling on the issues. \nEdited extract from The Climate Coalition invitation:  “The UK is at a turning point. As we build back from the current health crisis our best chance of building a stronger economy goes hand in hand with tackling climate change.  \n“We can rebuild a resilient economy that benefits everyone in society and tackle climate change & nature’s decline; creating jobs and protecting the most vulnerable in the UK and around the world. Or we can let the moment for change pass us by\, go back to old ways and wait for new crises to hit. \n“Using our voices to call for action is more important than ever. Have a virtual cup of tea with your MP on Tuesday 30 June and tell them that #TheTimeIsNow to put a healthy\, greener\, fairer future at the heart of plans to rebuild from the Coronavirus crisis. \nBe part of history. Sign up to be part of the first ever virtual lobby for climate\, nature and people.” \n2G3S is supporting the lobby\, and we urge you to participate.  The more constituents our MP\, Anthony Browne\, hears from\, the more pressure he will be under to hold the virtual meeting.  And the more we can convince him of the need to put a healthy\, greener\, fairer future at the heart of plans to rebuild from the pandemic\, the more likely he is to join with other MPs to persuade the government to do so. \nThe process is straightforward.  Register for the lobby here.  You will be invited to email your MP requesting a meeting at a time of his choosing (there is a suggested text) and will be given more details of what will happen and how to participate.  The meeting will be a joint meeting with everyone from S Cambs who has requested it\, including several members of 2G3S. \nWe hope you will join us!  If you are going to register\, please do this sooner rather than later so that the campaign gains momentum from the word go. \n

SUMMARY:Guided Nature Walk: Stapleford Parish Pit
DESCRIPTION:A wildflower walk to Stapleford Parish Pit led by 2G3S member John 0’Boyle.  There is uneven ground on the site so sturdy footwear is advised.  There is no charge for this event. \nStapleford Chalk Pit is a small nature reserve adjoining Magog Downs\, managed by a group of Friends under the trusteeship of the Parish Council.  The pit was formed by the extraction of a hard chalk (clunch) for use as a building material and the repair of local roads.  The Friends are working towards improving the rich grassland flora of the site.  70 wildflower species have so far been recorded.  For those who came on this walk last year\, it will be interesting to see how the site has developed. \nAccess: Try to come by foot or bike\, but if you need to drive you can leave your car at the Magog Trust car park and walk back down the road towards Stapleford (note there is a parking charge for non-members of the Magog Trust).  After 200 yards on the left there is a signpost to the Pit just after the Gog Magog Cottages private road.  Walk up the path and meet at the gate at the top.

SUMMARY:Transition Cambridge monthly 'Cafes': Doughnut Economics
DESCRIPTION:Transition Cambridge organises monthly cafes\, actual or virtual depending on the rules at the time\, with lively conversations\, talks\, presentations and films.  More details\, and the programme for future cafes\, here. \nThe next Cafe will be a discussion on Doughnut Economics. \nWednesday 17th June 2020 19:00-20:30 online\nContact Matt for the Zoom link. \nTransition demands a fresh narrative for our economic life. Oxford economist Kate Raworth has offered the Doughnut model for our enlightenment and Martin Roach will lead a discussion on how we could apply this in the Cambridge context. \nSince the neo-liberal narrative is so powerful and deeply rooted in western economies it is helpful to know that change is afoot at a high level. The Wellbeing Economy Governments (WeGo) are questioning the wisdom of growth culture and this ten minute TED talk by Nicola Sturgeon sets the scene for our Cafe evening. There is no obligation to watch the video but it can provide a helpful perspective. \nThis is a free event.

SUMMARY:Earth Day 2020
DESCRIPTION: Go to Information – Useful links for full details\n\n\n\n\n \nThe celebration of ‘Earth Day’ began in the US in 1970 when Gaylord Nelson\, a Democrat Senator and governor of Wisconsin\,  proposed April 22 as a day for Americans to speak out about the environmental crisis.  See him speaking here. \nSince then Earth Day has been observed not only in the US but around the world.  In 2016\, the United Nations chose Earth Day as the day when the historic Paris Agreement on climate change was signed into force. \n2020 represents the fiftieth anniversary of Earth Day and the theme for this year is climate change.  It is ironic that on the one hand events to mark the day will this year have to be digital because of the coronavirus pandemic (arguably itself a result of our cavalier and exploitative approach to the natural world) while on the other hand environmentalists may be welcoming the fact that the price of American oil has just gone negative for the first time ever. \nFor more information\, and how to get involved\, visit the Earth Day website.

SUMMARY:Conversation Evening: Are natural disasters OUR FAULT?
DESCRIPTION:Are natural disasters OUR FAULT? \nMost deaths caused by so-called ‘natural’ disasters have human responsibility behind them.  Floods kill more people every year than all other natural disasters. Yet it is clear that climate change\, primarily caused by burning fossil fuels\, greatly exacerbates the power of storms and floods\, generates long-term droughts\, and causes heat waves that lead to tens of thousands of early deaths.  As always\, it is the poor and disadvantaged who suffer most – particularly those in low-income countries who did not cause the problem in the first place. \nBob White\, Professor of Geophysics at the University of Cambridge\, will lead our discussion on this topical issue. \n8 pm Monday 20 January 2020  \nLarge room\, The Three Horseshoes\, Stapleford \nFree; all welcome!

DESCRIPTION:FOSSIL FUEL DIVESTMENT AND WHY IT MATTERS \n \n8 pm on Tuesday 3 December at the Three Horseshoes\, Stapleford \nBy the end of the last Parliament\, over 300 cross-party MPs were calling on their pension fund to divest from fossil fuels.  Is this enough?  How many other organisations are following suit?  Dr James Smith\, Public Health Consultant\, University of Cambridge\, will lead our discussion on the importance of divestment and whether we are moving quickly enough to have a significant ameliorating effect on climate change. \nAll welcome.

SUMMARY:What went right for 2G3S in 2019?  What do we want from 2020?
DESCRIPTION:Come and join us at The Three Horseshoes\, Stapleford\, on 25 November for our next meeting.  This get-together is in effect our AGM: we shall review all the things we did in 2019:  putting on events (such as talks\, nature walks\, Repair Cafes\, and the Apple Day)\,  sharing information\, and participating in policy formation.  We shall go on to discuss what we shall be doing in 2020.  Are we on the right track?  Should we have more/fewer/different events?  Should we spend more time discussing issues? \nIf you have often thought about finding out more about who we are and what we do\, but somehow never got around to it\, and would like some input into where we go from here\, now is your chance to meet us and join in the discussion.  And if you want to get more involved\, we would love to have you with us\, whether it be as part of the publicity team\, helping out at events\, taking a turn at chairing or minuting meetings\, or doing things from your computer at home. \nThe AGM part of the evening will be kept fairly brief so that we all have a chance to get to know each other over a drink afterwards.  Even our regular members are looking forward to this chance to relax for a change!  This is our end-of-year social – you are most warmly invited!

SUMMARY:2019 - 2020 Conversation Evenings: Climate
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday October 22 at 8 pm in The Rose\, Stapleford \n \nThis year’s 2G3S Conversation Evenings will all be on the theme of the climate crisis. We start off by welcoming Pippa Heylings\, Chair of  South Cambridgeshire District Council Climate and Environment Advisory Committee. \n  \nLast November\, members of all parties at South Cambridgeshire District Council unanimously backed a motion put forward by Pippa proposing that “South Cambs shows responsible climate leadership by supporting the transition to zero carbon by 2050 in the next Local Plan.” This pledge is more ambitious than the Government’s national target of an 80% reduction in carbon emissions by that date. \n  \nPippa told us “We are facing a climate emergency and have limited time to act. We’re already feeling the effects of climate change in the UK through the increased frequency and intensity of storms\, flooding and heatwaves which are putting extra strains on our services. We’re also experiencing growing problems with water scarcity and air pollution.” \n  \nThis open conversation evening will be a chance to discuss how South Cambridgeshire and its parishes can ensure that new homes\, jobs and services will support this commitment to making South Cambridgeshire Carbon-neutral by 2050. \n  \nJoin us for a drink and some interesting but informal discussion!  We’ll be in the small room to the left of the main entrance. \n
