A DISCUSSION will be taking place later this month to discuss environmental issues.

An event, entitled 'Green Ethics - Actions and Dilemmas', will be taking place at Bridport Town Hall on Thursday, September 23 as part of the Great Big Green Week.

Difficult questions in regards to climate change and the environment will be raised, with all welcome to discuss the issues on an open floor.

The event will take place from 7.30pm and the discussion will begin with Dorset and Bridport Town Councillor Kelvin Clayton raising the question of the ethics of choices such as air travel in the modern world.

Cllr Clayton said: "The way to avoid the bleak future predicted by climate scientists may be through ethics rather than science and technology.

"Perhaps we need to not only understand our being part of a community of all living entities sharing a single environment, but start to feel this connection, and start to feed this connection into our ethical behaviour."

Local writer Horatio Morpurgo will moderate the discussion, ensuring that it's open to a variety of different points of view.

Doors open at 7pm and there will be a restriction on numbers due to Covid precautions.
