The Surf Coast Energy Group wants to encourage more informed action within our community. That is why we are excited to announce Think Resilience- a 10 week series of workshops developed in the United States by the Post Carbon Institute. SCEG is partnering with the PCI to run this subsidised program. Importantly, we think it’s vital to understand the complex problems before us in this 21st century so that our response is commensurate with the challenges.
