In this episode of Act Local, Cam throws back to three conversations and, more specifically, three sustainability quotes that have lived rent-free in his head.

 

After travelling around Australia and interviewing people who are taking local action to combat climate change, there are three quotes that our host, Cameron Doyle, continues to think about.

Unley Bicycle User Group‘s Dylan Kiernan explains that instead of finding time in your busy schedule for a whole new activity, you could do less of a bad thing to decrease your carbon footprint, like opting to ride your bike instead of reaching for your car keys.

Our sobering conversation with Dr Michelle Blewitt is a harrowing reminder that we need to break up our toxic relationship with plastic, as she reminds us that ‘it never breaks down, it never goes away’.

It’s one thing knowing this stuff, but rallying others to help take action can be a different story. That’s why Sam Quirke’s roadmap for how Protect Our Winters encourages people to take action is a standout from the series.
