The world’s largest seismic blasting program has The world’s largest seismic blasting program has been proposed for the ocean between VIC & TAS. 

The dark blue depths of Bass Strait are home to an array of marine life, from the majestic Blue whale down to microscopic yet vital zooplankton. And yet, in this area of ocean, the Australian Labor Government has granted a special permit to seismic test 5.5 million hectares of seafloor, looking for oil and gas reserves. 

For our new video series, Act Local,  @cameronmarkdoyle  went down to Apollo Bay to catch up with @oceanclimatenetwork, who are fighting to protect the Otway Basin from these blasts.

Now that's a paddlin' Adventurer @indeedjakereid Now that's a paddlin' 

Adventurer @indeedjakereid has paddled 72km of the Derbarl Yerrigan Bilya / Swan River from source to sea on a stand up paddleboard in just two days! 

Starting at the river’s source in Walyunga National Park, where the Swan joins the Avon River, Jake paddled through white-water rapids and still waters to finish in Fremantle Port! 

So far, he’s found no record of anyone else having achieved the same paddle.
