There will be an opportunity to ask federal Member for Bendigo Lisa Chesters and Member for Bendigo West Maree Edwards about their position on climate change.
Bendigo District Australian Conservation Foundation member Mel said it was time for “real answers” on climate change.
“Australians are sick of the inaction and political bickering around climate change, and we want some real answers,” Mrs Abel said.
“We want our elected representatives to really hear the constituents' views on all of the problems that are affecting our environment.

“The Great Barrier Reef is dying on our watch, Australia is a global deforestation hot spot, and we're entering the sixth mass extinction.”
"We want to know what our representatives plan to do about it.”
The Politics in the Pub Q&A session will take place at the Golden Vine Hotel on Thursday August 2, commencing at 6.20pm.
This will mark the first of multiple sessions where Bendigo District ACF will engage with various political parties to grasp an understanding of their views on climate change.
The Bendigo District was formed in November 2017 and is part of Australia’s leading environmental charity with approximately 500,000 members across the country.
