With Andy Brown.
Technical questions can floor the most practical activist. Sometimes they are beyond your capability to answer, sometimes they disguise another agenda. This practical workshop will help you sort out the questions you can answer, those you need to seek help with and those that have another story behind them.
Andy Brown is a founder and Trustee of Cambridge Carbon Footprint , a professional engineer and specialist in energy efficiency in buildings.
