1pm: Speakers from 100% Renewable Energy and Beyond Zero Emissions.
1.30pm: Mass photo for Let’s Build Big Solar Campaign launch

Let’s show our support for BIG SOLAR and make our MPs pay attention! The BIG SOLAR Campaign by 100% Renewable Energy is calling for the government to make a commitment this year, to build at least 2000MW of Big Solar projects (either solar thermal or solar PV power stations) by 2015.

To show our determination to both the media and politicians we invite you to join us for a mass photo at 1.30 in the Union Court at ANU.

From noon we will be celebrating with live music and free lunch. We’ll have speakers, Sunny on stilts and information about the BIG SOLAR Campaign.

Together we can make a difference! Come and join us for the photo at 1.30pm

Want to be involved by helping with this event and with the campaign? Join the survey team. Can you spare an hour or two to be a pollster? Over the next couple of months, we will be conducting a short survey of at least 1000 Canberrans on their attitudes to large scale renewable energy in Australia.
