There is so much happening in our local environment!
Today we are talking to Una Sandeman, about the destruction of koala habitat in the Redlands. Ormiston College was given approval to start felling Koala food trees and was only stopped yesterday after a koala was found. Please follow Koala Action Group for more information.

I also play a series of interviews I did while enjoying Victoria Park Barrambin on the weekend, I talked to Stéphane Guillou who organized the bioblitz, CJ who participated in the bioblitz, and Jimmy Southwood who ran a boomerang throwing workshop and talked to me about the spring system under the park.
