Daniel Lewis

23 October 2012

A Green Unconference – a free event organised by an Engineering postgraduate to open up discussion of environmental issues at a local level – is being held near Bristol this weekend (27 October).

Daniel Lewis, a PhD Student in the Intelligent Systems Lab in the Engineering Mathematics Department, has put together the Unconference, which brings together individuals, researchers and businesses.

‘The Green Unconference covers everything green – environmentally friendly energy, home improvements, organic gardening and agriculture, and so on,’ said Lewis. ‘We’ll be specifically talking about green topics at home-based and community levels.’

The event will take place on Saturday 27 October between 10am and 6pm at All Saints Church in Long Ashton, just west of Bristol. Entry is free, and all are welcome.

More information and a provisional schedule is available on the event’s website.
