21.01.2022 PREVIEW Australia’s Ocean Odyssey A journey down the East Australian Current! Starts TONIGHT Tuesday 9 June at 8:30pm (in your local time) Just off the east coast of Australia is the East Australian Current - a river of seawater that doesn't just deliver life to our iconic marine habitats, wildlife, and islands, but is essential for all life on land too - including our own!

20.01.2022 Happy International Women's Day! Big shout out to women making a difference - especially those like my mum Carol Bailey working hard as Councillor for the Mount Barker District Council and community, standing up for our natural environment and protecting our wildlife. #IDW2021

20.01.2022 THIS IS A DISASTER The Morrison government has tabled a bill in Parliament that will let them wash their hands of protecting our environment. We are in an extinction crisis. We must protect nature.

19.01.2022 Plastic free July was last month but how can we make a difference at home everyday? Say no to single-use plastic with these affordable and innovative products from some of Australia’s most eco-minded companies.

19.01.2022 Do you have an African Tulip tree growing in your backyard? Do our bees a favour and have it removed! These trees might look nice but they are toxic to our bee population and without bees we wouldn’t have flowers or food!!

17.01.2022 Reduce consumption - The simple truth is that almost all Australians use more electricity than we actually need. The good thing is they’re often simple actions we can take at home to reduce our emissions footprint. Just a few include: > Turning off lights when not in use > Purchasing energy efficient products > Taking shorter showers... > Turning off power points at the wall > Using blankets or wearing extra clothes instead of turning up the heating > Scaling back the use of energy-intensive appliances where possible > Use public transport, walk or cycle for transport and commuting The other easy way to reduce consumption is to take a look at the efficiency of your electricity usage. Some relatively easy steps such as replacing halogen light bulbs with compact fluorescent or LED bulbs can result in significant savings on our footprint and in our pocket. Look for the ENERGY STAR label when shopping for appliances for guidance.

16.01.2022 Yesterday was Biological Diversity Day! As we encroach on nature and deplete vital habitats, increasing numbers of species are at risk. That includes humanity and the future we want. UN Secretary-General António Guterres... Did you know? - Current negative trends in biodiversity and ecosystems will undermine progress towards 80% of the assessed targets of 8 Sustainable Development Goals. - Three-quarters of the land-based environment and about 66% of the marine environment have been significantly altered by human actions. - 1 million animal and plant species are now threatened with extinction.

14.01.2022 It’s World Turtle Day so I thought it would be fitting to post some photos of my turtle rescues over the years. For those who don’t know, I assist on transporting sick and injured sea turtles from Mackay to Airlie Beach Eco Barge CleanSeas Turtle Hospital, a 300km round trip. If the turtles recover they are released back on the beach they were found. Some pics of my tortoise rescues might have also snuck in!!

09.01.2022 Good News - China has officially granted the pangolin the protected status possible in a huge win for the species’ conservation.

08.01.2022 Oceans cover 71 per cent of the Earth’s surface, and they hold 97 per cent of our planet’s water. World Oceans Day is celebrated across the world on June 8 and is an annual event designed to encourage people to celebrate the oceans and take steps to protect ocean health. The theme of World Oceans Day 2020 is "Innovation for a Sustainable Ocean". The oceans are facing unprecedented pressures from factors ranging from pollution to climate change. And these pressures are projected to only rise in the future. The need to balance the preservation of a healthy ocean and ever-increasing economic activities requires a fresh approach and rethinking in many areas. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jWNcY-WuRU8

02.01.2022 The foods we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink and the climate that makes our planet habitable all come from nature. Yet, these are exceptional times in which nature is sending us a message: To care for ourselves we must care for nature. It’s time to wake up. To take notice. To raise our voices. It’s time to build back better for People and Planet.... This World Environment Day, it’s Time for Nature!
