GWYNNE DYER at Town Hall Seattle

06/23/2010 7:30 pm

Co-presented with the TOWN HALL Seattle's Seattle Science series. In his new book, Climate Wars (Oneworld), journalist/author Gwynne Dyer casts an open-eyed look at the future—projecting a geo-political landscape in 2050 if things continue as they are presently. "Civil war in China and the collapse of the European union by 2045; nuclear strikes between India and Pakistan in 2036; 'people being blown up by land mines and machine-gunned by automatic weapons' at a sealed U.S./Mexican border in 2029—these are just some of the terrifying climate change scenarios forecast by journalist and geopolitical analyst Dyer. His apocalyptic predictions are drawn from unimpeachable sources ... we can hope Dyer's sources are impressive enough to convince policy makers to take serious action." - Publishers Weekly. $5 tickets are available at the door starting at 6:30 p.m., or in advance via www.brownpapertickets.com (or 1-800-838-3006). Town Hall Seattle is at 1119 Eighth Avenue (at Seneca). Preferred seating for Town Hall members.
