As we inch towards the inevitability of zero emissions, city people must not forget the coal affected communities.

BZE Community Radio Show Podcast: 15 August 2016

BZE talks to:

Miner Peter Kennedy who takes us around the coal mines and power stations of the Hunter Valley.

David Watson and his fellow artists who celebrate the places where coal has done  its worst and still say "Giving up is not an option".

Rob McLaughlin and the Bulga Milbrodale Progress Association.  They keep a vigil on the old convict built road which should be a heritage trail - but is set to be ploughed up by Rio Tinto.

Lorraine Bull from Morwell who speaks up about the diversity of jobs which ex coal communities will create.
