For World Environment Day 2015 I joined a group going up into the Victorian Central Highlands to look at the old growth forests, home to the critically endangered Leadbeater's Possum as well as being a unique ecosystem and a catchment area for Melbourne's water supply.
Tragically the area is being logged, with the vast majority (93%) going to low grade wood pulp or wood chip and less than 1% going to quality hardwood. The loggers claim that they are doing sustainable logging, but they are only replacing the Mountain Ash trees that they value, not the whole unique and diverse ecosystem.
Our hosts told the story through art, song and storytelling, including a very cold looking (and large) possum. They are working on protecting the forest by creating a Central Highlands National Park, which will generate more jobs through tourism than will be lost when logging stops (about 100 jobs)

We are losing our biggest Carbon Sinks. Indian forest cover stands at mere 21%, which was more than 43% prior to independence. Gujarat forest cover stands at mere 9.6% & tree cover at measly 4%.
On this World Environment Day, let us commit to preserve our biggest OxyGenerators.

A woman carrying water from long distance to her home in a village near Bundi, Rajasthan. I spent brief time in this village but had an amazing time with the happy villagers who were preparing for a wedding.
I hope this "World Environment Day" we renew our resolve of being more sensitive to the environment and using the natural resources judicially.
Hoy es el dia Mundial del Medio Ambiente y Danbo ha querido celebrarlo.
Happy World Environment Day.

On World Environment Day Melbourne citizens gathered at Camberwell Junction outside the office of Josh Frydenberg, the Liberal MP for Kooyong and the Environment and Climate Change Minister in the Turnbull Government. He needs to step up and stop the Adani Carmichael coal mine from being developed as it is inconsistent with Australia's ratification and commitments under the 2015 Paris Agreement to keep temperatures well below 2C temperature target.
95 per cent of Australia's coal must remain unexploited to be consistent with limiting temperatures to 2C according to a 2015 peer reviewed study by Ekins and McGlade
If all of the Galilee Basin coal was burned, it is estimated that 705 million tonnes of carbon dioxide would be released each year – more than 1.3 times Australia’s current annual emissions. If all Galilee coal mines go ahead = 705 MT CO2/year or 1.96% of current annual global emissions of 36Gt CO2. Reminder on the science re Galilee Basin coal from climate scientist Will Steffen from September 2015 (PDF). Or read the more recent Climate Council report (May 2017) Risky Business: Health, Climate and Economic Risks of the Carmichael Coalmine

On World Environment Day locals gather on a wintery Monday morning to tell Josh Frydenberg that they want Australia to move rapidly to solar, wind and storage and actually reduce our emissions, not just see the Paris Agreement as some kind of diplomacy bargaining chip.
The CEFC Board is up for renewal, and Finkel seems likely to only deliver a gas promoting LET not a real transition. With continued posturing on the "gas crisis" (when there is a global gas glut) and "clean coal", constituents are not happy with public funding being diverted from clean energy back to coal and gas. As Australia's emissions continue to climb its a big FAIL on #WorldEnvironmentDay

Connecting with Nature. 🌱 Today is #worldenvironmentday, which seeks to connect people with nature. Nature is a huge part of our lives and is the big reason we do what we do. How do you like to connect with nature in your life? How are you inspired to get out more? Special thanks to this year's World Environment Day host and our neighbors to the north, Canada ! Fun fact: Nate and Steph met @justinpjtrudeau a few years ago when we visited our friends in Ottawa. Yeah, we're kind of a big deal! 😉😂 . . . #connectingwithnature #withnaturevia via @Adventure_in_a_backpack Instagram bit.ly/2rXp1CC
