THE CONFAB WITH MICHAEL G IN CONVERSATION WITH JO CLAY
Manage episode 380529288 series 2919416
Jo (a Greens member of the ACT Assembly) is strongly committed to urgent action on climate change. As a child, Jo was concerned about climate change but assumed that by the time she grew up someone would have fixed the problem. Unfortunately, this is not the case and so Jo has decided to do everything in her power to help find solutions.
Jo started The Carbon Diet, working with her family to cut their household emissions. Not only did they cut their carbon footprint by 75%, but also had fun and now have a better, richer life from making a few simple changes.
Jo is involved in grass-roots movements and is inspired by the creativity and collaboration of people in these movements, including school students, ‘Knitting Nanas’ and everyone in between, who come together to face a problem that's bigger than any one of us.
These experiences has given Jo hope for the future and a belief that we can make a better choice. She looks forward to using her skills and her love for this region to help Canberra make that choice.
Join me on the ConFab to gain an understanding of her passions and life journey.
