Vaping [the use of E-Cigarettes] has been classified as a “safer” alternative to smoking.

Perri Lee (a.k.a Naomi the respiratory pharmacist) hits us with some with facts and statistics around vaping and nicotine dependency. 

Is it really that cool to vape?

In recent years we have (rightfully) seen the business world respond to issues of gender, race and sexual harassment. So where is the focus on workplace discrimination based on age? Ageism is rife and deserves further attention.

In a recent survey by the Australian Human Rights Commission, over 30% of respondents said their organisation was reluctant or unwilling to hire ANYONE aged over 50. 

The ageism problem is amplified further across the creative industries of advertising, music and media. Regarded as a "young person's game", many as young as 40 face blatant discrimination on the basis of their age.

Joining Byron Cooke for this episode - One of Australia's most revered music photographers Michelle Grace Hunder [famously started her professional journey well into her 30's] and leading media and advertising recruiter Julie Anne Longano.

For all the recent noise around "Net Zero 2050", nobody is actually talking about how it can be achieved. Ballarat based innovator Simon Hunt has drafted a practical proposal to break the paralysis in climate change action. If it was implemented immediately, Simon claims it could reach the 2050 target a staggering 24 years early!

The proposal doesn't need government funding. It doesn't need corporate investment.  So why is it being ignored by big business and government? Why aren't more people talking about it?

Wildlife biologist, teacher, climate & environmental activist Biologist Ellie joins Byron and Simon for a conversation around this innovative, pragmatic, sustainable idea.
