I’m excited to announce that the NCC Regional Conference this year will be held in Armidale at Echidna Gully on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 June 2022. It will be cohosted by Sustainable Living Armidale, Climate Action Armidale, and Armidale National Parks Association. The theme this year will be: ‘Helping nature survive in the age of renewables’ and the conference will explore the how we can protect nature while undertaking the necessary transition to renewable energy to minimise the impacts of catastrophic climate change.
