Book Launch – In Hot Water

  • Indian Ocean Marine Research Centre, The University of Western Australia 64 Fairway Crawley, WA Australia (map)

Join us to launch In Hot Water, the latest release from Dr Paul E Hardisty. 

In the ongoing climate wars, the Great Barrier Reef has become a symbol of everything that we have to lose from global warming. For years, reports of the world-famous coral being irreversibly bleached have fueled an ideological battle between those fighting to stop the damage and those who insist the danger is overblown.
Paul Hardisty found himself in the middle of this fight during his six years as CEO of the Australian Institute of Marine Science. In this fascinating, candid and urgent book, he dives into the history of the reef and cuts through the rhetoric to chart the circumstances and acceleration of its decline, as well as the determined efforts to save it.

Dr Paul E Hardisty will be in conversation with Paul Gamblin. This is a free event but registration is essential. Confirm your place here
