Month: January 2013

Friday 15th February – 7pm 

Lecture Theatre 2, Architecture Building, Brayford Campus, University of Lincoln.

FREE film screening of Growthbusters – followed by a talk from Population Matters

Water shortages, hunger, peak oil, species extinction, and even increasing depression are all symptoms of a deeper problem – addiction to unending growth in a world that has limits.GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth goes way beyond prescribing Band-Aids to slow the bleeding. This film examines the cultural barriers that prevent us from reacting rationally to the evidence current levels of population and consumption are unsustainable.

Love to Ride Lincoln is a website for new and existing cyclists in Lincoln.

The site invites and challenges individual cyclists or groups of friends and colleagues to ride the length of the UK virtually from Land’s End to John O’Groats. The 850 mile route can be tackled individually, as a team relay or as a race. People ride their bikes and record their miles on the Love to Ride Lincoln website. There are great prizes up for grabs just by taking part in the virtual ride including bike gear and local restaurant vouchers.

Love to Ride Lincoln has been launched in partnership with Lincolnshire County Council as part of a £4.9m ‘Access LN6’ programme to improve sustainable transport options in the LN6 area. Find out more information about Love to Ride Lincoln at www.lovetoride.net/lincoln.
