In October we will be hosting a book club. Looking for a good summer read? Why not pick up the fascinating book “Hot Air – The inside story of the battle against climate change denial” by Peter Stott. We’ll be holding a WiC book club event in October 2025 where Peter will be joining us to discuss the book and answer questions!
