Climate Chaos in Victoria Last Week - Reports from on the ground
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Over half a million Victorians went without power and at least 60 homes were reported destroyed in extreme storms, heat and fires but somehow the capitalist media managed to report all this without mentioning the "C" word once. Bravo! Courageous effort (NOT!)
For those first responders and aghast observers in the midst of the #climateEmergency what they want is a government response that addresses the best science and gives timely and forceful warnings of the scale of the climate emergency we are in the midst of.
Sam Galvin is a volunteer firefighter who has spent much of the past week battling to protect the people of his home district around the Dandenong Ranges. He shares his first hand experience of the climate disaster wracking his communty. Freja Leonard is a campaigner for the Friends of the Earth, she brings a broader perspective to bear on the political and economic issues that are driving the disasterous events in her home state.

In this episode of Environmental as Anything local environmental scientist, Svea Pittman speaks to Sean O'Shannessy about the values her community is defending.
