Who makes sure there’s still somewhere for them to feed and rest when they arrive?Andrew McCauley, convenor of Amplifying Voices for Nature, joins us to discuss the seven wetland areas left out of the region’s recent Ramsar expansion – including the Karaaf near Torquay, where stormwater from housing estates is damaging the saltmarsh.He’s calling for the detailed assessments behind that decision to be published, proper responsibility for stormwater management, and commitments from candidates ahead of Victoria’s 28 November election.On the Soapbox, Mik connects Geelong’s place-naming debate with bigger questions about entitlement, masculinity and leadership. What changes when people in power begin by listening and caring?Colin brings his global roundup from the opening of COP31, and we introduce our new song ‘Because we care’ – following care as it spreads from neighbours helping each other to young people inspiring action across borders.→ Listen and share the episode:climatesafety.info/thesustainablehour616. . .#TheSustainableHour #Wetlands #GeelongBirds #GeelongBirdlife #Birds #Birdlife #Ramsar #Nature #ProtectNature #KaraafWetlands #SwiftParrot #PlaceNamePolicy #BellarinePeninsula #Geelong #MigratoryShorebirds #VictorianElection #COP31 ...
