PEAK OIL & CLIMATE CHANGE
HOW THE FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS WILL RESHAPE SYDNEY
When: 12:30pm - 2:00pm, Wednesday 26 September

In 2002, the price of petrol was 84 cents for a litre. Today the price is 60 percent higher. The knock on effect of peak oil, rising petrol prices and global warming will transform Sydney in the coming decade. How can we ensure that we reshape our suburbs and public transport for a sustainable future?

Alex, is that a for-profit website? Did you link to it because you work for it? That "ad" seems to have been made by the website itself, to generate controversy and get people to vote...for 55 cents a vote...
