  • Climate News: The crippling issue of corporate self-control, greenwashing and the confusion and moderation of alcohol
    Jul 17 2024

    Professor Christine Parker (pictured) last month lectured about "Nudge versus Sludge: The Great Greenwashing and the Failure of Corporate Regulation".

    And then, coincidently, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) carried a story on its Radion National program, Breakfast, in which corporations were "walking both sides of the street" about alcohol control in the story; "Domestic violence experts criticise NRL for partnership with DrinkWise".

    The Greenpeace 20-minute movie, "Journey for Justice", follows law student and activist Anjali Sharma as she travels across the Pacific on Greenpeace's iconic ship, the Rainbow Warrior, to hear from those most impacted by climate change.

    The inspiring new documentary by Greenpeace Australia Pacific showcases how powerful activists across the globe are using the law to hold big polluters to account.

    Finally, we go to The Green Institute to listen to a webinar hosted by Executive Director, Tim Hollo, who talked with Natalie Bennett about her new book, "Change Everything" during an event "Change Everything – Natalie Bennett on her new book on transformative Greens politics, with guest Christine Milne".

    Although Tim was reluctant to use its name, "Change Everything" was available from the company whose name began with "A" - my digital copy came from "A".

  • Virtual event: 'Don't nuke the climate' - become a nuclear-free campaigner
    Jul 16 2024

    Here's your chance to be inspired and after hearing from those who know, become an anti-nuclear campaigner enabling you to talk with others about the myths and weaknesses of the poorly thought-through idea the Liberal-National Party Coalition has for using nuclear energy to power Australia.

    First, you should listen to/watch the recent virtual event - "Don't nuke the climate: How to stop Dutton's nuclear power reactors" - take a close look at the "Don't nuke the climate" web page and then study the "Friends of the Earth Australia’s Nuclear-Free Campaign".

    More than 70 people were recently at Shepparton's GV Library to hear two speakers with an enlightening understanding of how to make your home more energy-efficient - the event, known as the "Home Energy Efficiency Talk" - was promoted by the City of Greater Shepparton through its "Sustainability & Environment Team".

    The first of the speakers was Tim Forcey, the fellow behind the Facebook page "My Efficient Electric Home" and the author of "My Efficient Electric Home Handbook: How to slash your energy bills, protect your health & save the planet".

    The second speaker was the CEO of GV Community Energy, Geoff Lodge.

    Tim Forcey was not a stranger to the Goulburn Valley, having been a guest at a virtual event organized by" Zero Carbon Tatura" and in May this year having been a guest on "Climate Conversations"
