Eco[logically] Thinking

Has the urgent call for collective human action against climate change left you wondering what difference you could make? Are you leading an honest, hard-working life but feel disillusioned about the path humanity seems to be on? Are you unsure what to do about it?

Come and join a morning gathering with TEDxCapeTown at the Stor-Age facility in Gardens, where we’ll be unpacking some of these thoughts; screening talks, hearing from speakers who’ve grappled with these questions themselves and enjoy group discussions to declutter our anxieties … inside of Stor-Age units!
