Warming Waters and the East Coast of Tasmania

  • This event has passed.

Learn about the effects of climate change on east coast waters and what impact we can expect it to have over the next 20 years.

Join us at Freycinet Lodge with Professor Gretta Pecl, a renowned marine ecologist from the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies. Gretta has spent her career studying effects of climate change on the inhabitants of Tasmania’s east coast waters.

Hear about her research, her predictions about the future of our iconic marine species and environments, and then chat with her over cocktails and dinner about how you can be part of the solution.

Lodge chefs will be offering a four-course dinner showcasing the flavours of the east coast.
