We are dealing with problems like environmental damage and the negative behaviour of those in powerful positions. We need to think about the kind of world we will leave for future generations.Community ConversationThis free event will discuss important issues we face today. There will be a panel with two local speakers (to be announced) who will help us think about practical steps we can take for a more sustainable community.As we think about these challenges, we must consider what legacy we will leave behind—specifically, how much clean air, water, and soil will future generations have? Gerry McGovern, an expert on digital issues, will highlight the need to reduce our digital waste and understand how technology affects our lives. Together, we’ll explore ways to remain hopeful for a better future.Reviews of the book:“99th Day is essential reading for anyone who cares about our planet. Prepare to be disturbed, enlightened and inspired.”Justine McCarthy, The Irish Times“This is a masterful book, brilliant in its clarity and beguiling in its argument.”Tim Unwin, Emeritus Professor of Geography, University of LondonAbout Gerry McGovern:In 1996, Gerry McGovern published ‘Ireland, The Digital Age, The Internet’, an Irish government-sponsored report on the digital future. The same year, Nua, a company he co-founded, was awarded the Best Overall World Wide Web Business Achievement Award by the European Union. The Irish Times has described him as one of five visionaries who have had a major impact on the development of the Web.He has published nine books. His latest, '99th Day: A Warning About Technology', deals with a rapidly approaching environmental and civilisational collapse driven by the excesses and wastes of our abusive technological society, and particularly by white male supremacy culture. His 2020 book, 'World Wide Waste: How digital is killing the planet and what to do about it', focused on reducing digital waste.Gerry will sell copies of his new book at the event for €16.
