Meltdown in Tibet
Speaker: Mr. Michael Buckley, Canadian author and filmmaker
Chair: Ms Rebon Banerjee Dhar, Foundation for Non-violent Alternatives
Mr. Buckley will explain how he made the shift from guidebook writer to environmentalist - on a journey of discovery exposing the rampant exploitation of Tibet's natural resources, in particular through damming, water diversion, mining, and grassland degradation
Presentation will include a short documentary about the extensive damming of Tibet's rivers and the impact of this on the nations downstream - on India, Bangladesh, Burma, Thailand and other countries
