25.01.2022 hope you like our new profile picture. This is what Maroondah's native vegetation looks like in its native untouched form. Soon we will share some of its hidden gems

22.01.2022 If you are out walking tomorrow maybe wear a mask and also take a bag to collect some litter for Harpers army...this Mt Dandenong 10 year old environmentalist lost his life in the wind storm recently along with his Dad. You can post a photo of what you have picked up on the FB page called Harpers army People around the world have been motivated to help. Lets make his family know how his environmentalism was inspirational.

20.01.2022 We are possibly losing our old picture theatre being the old Croydon Hall building. Jury is out as to it's inclusion. Stand by... The memorial pool being rehash...ed ? Feel free to contact Council or follow the link in the post if you want more info or to help save the hall & possibly other heritage buildings in & for the future. There is only a few days left where you can view the latest 'proposals'. I'd love to start up the cause however time doesn't permit atm. ***Anyone available to commit to the ongoing cause of saving our heritage buildings ?? Ie. Tates corner, Jim Burns pharmacy down to Nat bank, old Comm bank building to name a few. See more

19.01.2022 thanks Environment Victoria for asking for serious action locally

15.01.2022 STOP fracking around with the Kimberley...proposed 40,000 fracking sites across the Fitzroy river catchment area and Aboriginal districts cultural lands. Given that the Kimberley is an outstanding site for Tourism, what the hell are they thinking? The Fitzroy river is listed on the National Heritage Register, and that won't stop it? you can register your dismay with WA premier Mr Mark McGowan. also email [email protected]

15.01.2022 Sir David Attenborough has called out the Australian government in a sobering speech on climate change.

14.01.2022 Wildlife Victoria are missing out on all the love. They do great work with wildlife all year round, 365 days a year, 24 hours.

12.01.2022 The birds are silent in the bush. Each panting hot. Falling. Small feathered flames and gone. No insect stirs thick layered ash... No lizard peeks from tiny refuge. There was no refuge. Because we made it so.

09.01.2022 One man can make a difference. The powerful horse trainer pushed through his will to run horses on a beautiful deserted beach with the rationale that 'it's good for the horses'. Well it wasn't good for anything else! On woman can make a difference. Carol Altmann has been fighting with the Warrnambool group to keep the interests of a tiny group of rich bastards from galloping over the interests of the many coast lovers. Let's keep fighting.

02.01.2022 So we know action is needed. One of the easiest and best ways is to plant millions of trees. Our area has many reserves and places where "friends groups" regularly do plantings. On our CCS webpage, under the Volunteers heading you will find "reserves - join in planting" There are currently 36 locations to choose from, that can use your gift of time. Find one you like from the list and give Derek a call. Let's get moving Maroondah #greeningwhereyoulive #Maroondahmatters #friendsdoingitforthemselves
