Ian McBurney has been shoulder deep in environmental/climate matters for decades. He is now pivotal in helping the northern Victorian city of Bendigo fulfil its climate responsibilities.

Ian has worked with many municipalities, but now as the Convenor of the Greater Bendigo Climate Collaboration, he played a key part in organizing the May 27 Greater Bendigo Climate Summit.

Ian was the MC for the one-day summit at Bendigo's Ulumbarra Theatre, which is a part of the wonderfully refurbished old Sandhurst Goal in the heart of the city.
