On Sunday 15 August the Wilderness Society, Environment Victoria and the Victorian climate movement is holding the 2010 Walk Against Warming to demand that our political leaders face up to their responsibility on climate change. We’ll remind them that to secure our votes, they must ‘Walk with the People, Not the Big Polluters’.
The lead up to the November 27 state election is your chance to make a big difference for the environment. Come along to this event to learn more about our forests and rivers, and to help us prepare and deliver an exciting community driven campaign in the Mitcham area.
On Saturday May 22nd, come and join Friends of Leadbeater's Possum and Parks Victoria in an important program to plant Leadbeater Possum habitat trees at Yellingbo State Nature Reserve.
Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th of May, 2010. Join campaign staff and supporters on a weekend exploring the forests of Victoria's Central Highlands, . Find out about the clearfell logging of the world's most carbon dense forests. Walk 15m above ground through ancient rainforest. Bear witness to recently logged coupes in Melbourne's water catchments.
And to help us Protect Our Native Forests and Rescue Our Rivers. As 2010 is an election year, there’s not a better time to ensure that both elections deliver big time for our environment. But we can’t do it without your help! Where: Carlton, Prahran & Mitcham. When: 21-28 April 2010
We're looking for a funky, new, activist t-shirt that can be proudly worn by our volunteers. You can decide on the messaging and colours, but remember to check out the Volunteer section of our website to guide your decision. Send in your design by 17th May.
Artists are invited to bring their easels or other art equipment to the steps of the Victorian Parliament House on the 11th March 2010. We, ‘Artists for Old-Growth Forests’, will be setting up our equipment and creating artworks that represent and honour our connection to ancient forests and their habitat.
