  • In for the long game

    In the scheme of things 230 years is a mere blink, but that's all it's taken for Europeans to utterly transform Australia. In another 230 years, what will we say?
    Whatever the answer, the word sustainability is important. Dr Kate Auty is ACT Sustainability Commissioner. We talk about what that means for the ACT, and how we meet the forces that oppose it.
    Dr Auty shares some life stories from the Kimberleys, and what happened when she held her ground as the Victorian Environment Commissioner.

  • Energising the Community

    Still waiting for the energy revolution? While the federal government wants to burn coal, the community voice grows.

    We visited the Hepburn wind farm, and the Community Energy Congress in Melbourne. The Town Hall was a-buzz with excitement.

    At Hepburn, James took a few moments away from his icecream. We talk smart energy systems with Hillary Platt, co-operatives with Anthony Taylor. Then we hear community energy groups from Seymour and Euroa plans for pumped hydro storage.

     

    Rod talks pumped hydro with Prof Andrew Blakers on Radio National.

  • A Primal Pleasure

    We are of course, talking about food! The immense pleasure of tucking into a good meal.

    It's the taste, the texture, the shared social experience, and nutrition.

    This a topic as rich as a fine meal. Today's conversation is with Dr Nenad Naumovski, Assistant Professor from the University of Canberra, and psychologist Jacqeline Naumovski. Interview by Rod.

     

    You can read Dr Nemovski's Ask Fuzzy columns on tea and pectin.

  • Blood Borne

    Hepatitis is a tenacious disease, but with basic knowhow, it can be prevented.  And with new drugs it can be treated, but the cost is far higher.

    Given the people at risk, it's as much a social issue as it is a health issue. It's one of the reasons that Hepatitis ACT Executive Director John Didlick has thrown his energy into the cause.

    Interview by Rod at the Multicultural Festival in Canberra.

  • The Activist

    At a time when we're facing so many dire threats, it's easy to give up and think we're powerless. In the face of such large forces, how can one person do anything?

    It turns out there are lots of ways. Our guest today describes a few.

    Simon Sheikh was driving force behind the Getup movement, and in 2013 was the Greens candidate in the ACT federal election. Now, he's founder and manager of Future Super.
