Karen Parr

Registered Nurse , Cardiac Catheter Laboratory, Westmead Private Hospital.

Mother of two teenage children, committed to making the necessary lifestyle changes required at the grass roots level in order to make a difference that will have a positive impact on future generations. Committed also to further self development and learning in order to set an example and inspire other members of the community to do likewise.

Since being enlightened about the climate change issue I have made significant ongoing changes to my lifestyle. My biggest realisation was how greedy the human race is. How much we have taken from this earth. It's high time that we learn to give it back and live sustainably. I am on a huge learning curve and hope to set an example to my children, extended family and friends as well as the community.

Books I have read

The Weathermakers Tim Flannery ( A must!)
David Suzuki The Autobiography
The Stern report - summary
An Inconvenient Truth  Al Gore ( Book and movie)
