"Putting a Chill on Global Warming"
Please
note that this section was originally created so the many people
contributing to the emPower exhibition could see what everyone else was
doing. So the printable material was converted to html on the fly.
As
a consequence there is no navigation system and some of the documents
are poorly formatted. Otherwise the information is the same as in the
actual exhibition.
You
can click any link next to a topic to go to the exhibition information.
You will then have to use the back button to return to this layout
before you cna go to the next document and so on.
We
apologise for any inconvenience, but we believe it is more important to
make the material available as soon as possible than to wait until
someone volunteers to make it look good.
If you are willing to do that job or know someone, please contact us. Thank you.
Some exhibition documents are not yet in below layout (or not yet linked). They will be made available over the next week.
