Jasmine Cook is a member of the Blue Mountains Youth Council. 

A representative of the next generation who is passionate about working with the older generation of politicians and business leaders to show them what they (we) are doing wrong.

After 32 years as a university academic in chemistry in Australia and the US. Dr Roy Tasker joined Planet Ark in July 2018 as Chief Science advisor.

With a passion of communicating science through visualization, Roy uses his experiences to help people to understand important scientific issues relevant to climate change and promote meaningful behavior change.

Chris Timbs and a group of like minded individuals are checking on the well-being of vulnerable members of our community by surprising them with phone calls.

This is the story of how a small random act of kindness is making a big difference by making contact to those who are feeling isolated.

Winton Evers from EcoProfit.com.au returns to talk more about Carbon Offsets - going Carbon Neutral - and how a business can learn where to begin with Carbon Accounting.

Plus we digress for a bit of light hearted fun about making music.

Noni McDevitt is a retiree from UNICEF who is now energetically engaged in promoting understanding of the need to address changing all our so called first world systems to support ecological and healthy sustainability. 

An active member in the Blue Mountains Renewable Energy Co-Op; the Resilient Blue Mountains; and The Blue Mountains Environmental Sustainable Network.

We are living at a pivotal time in the relatively short history of human beings. The earth’s resources are being used up faster than they can be regenerated. There are many solutions that are not difficult to implement. Imagine a group who's purpose is to show organizations and households how they can easily adopt new technology and scientific discovery to eliminate their detrimental impact on the environment ... and restore it.

Winton Evers is leading the change with "EcoProfit". An organization that is showing the way for us to go carbon neutral.

I will call Deb Dare a 'Socially Active Activist'. 

Deb has been a activist since the 1980's. I'm not highlighting this to be an age-ist, but to focus the point that for some people being and activist has been a lifetime of successes and disappointments that would put many off getting involved at all. Yet here 40 years later Deb Dare is still a voice to be reckoned with.

We talk to Peter LeGras about his work with, and getting involved with 'Open Street Maps'.

Gone are the street directories we kept in the cars glove box. No longer do we pick up one of the 'fold out servo maps' when visiting a new town. We're in 2021, there is so much more information available with a swipe of one finger. Today we learn about the work of one Blue Mountains resident who is actively mapping the community we live in by updating Open Street Maps.
