Two of the presentations were given by people on the Zoom call.<\/p>\n<p>The technology was a bit sketchy, but improved as we got used to it. Lessons were certainly learned in the event that hybrid meetings become a regular event in future.<\/p>\n<p>This is Kay Richmond&#8217;s final chairing of the FPAC meeting as Programme Director, and she presented a packed programme, all about Climate Change. The agenda was divided into Clusters &#8211; Asia, Caribbean and Europe &#8211; each of which had presentations by several Clubs on the work that they are doing, which covered every aspect of &#8220;Reduce, Repair, Reuse, Recycle&#8221;.
