The folks from Inter­sect have cre­at­ed a snap­py lit­tle poster for their upcom­ing event at the The South­ern Cross tomor­row night.  While I am not sure that even Joan­na New­som and her harp could weave whim­sy with CO2 themed allit­er­a­tion, I am pret­ty sure that Joni Mitchell has worked a few of these into a song  at some point.

What do cars, cows, cement and conifers have in com­mon?

Why, emis­sions trad­ing of course.

If you want some edu­cat­ing on the ins and outs of car­bon trad­ing, Leah Mur­phy (from the Min­istry of Trans­port) and Amy Kearse (from the Min­istry for the Envi­ron­ment) will be talk­ing us through the eco­nom­ics and the oppor­tu­ni­ties.

Where: The Artist’s Room, South­ern Cross on Able Smith Street

When: Tues­day 4 Novem­ber, 6:00pm start

This event fin­ish­es before quiz at 8:00pm and the Welling­ton­ista are back on top again at quiz, so come on down and try to knock us off our perch.

I dare ya.
