Save Wallum Campaign Ramps Up in Byron Shire

The gorgeous coastal village of Brunswick Heads in Arawkwal Country in the Shire of Byron Bay is home not only to the archetypal "Sea Change" community but also to some extraordanarilay rare and endangered ecologies. Right now it is also home to a David and Goliath struggle between megabucks corporate developers and a local community campaign determined to protect their precious wallum heathland from rapacious profiteers. In this episode of Environmental as Anything local environmental scientist, Svea Pittman speaks to Sean O'Shannessy about the values her community is defending. We also hear from "Zoe" who has just completed a tree climbing training to help prepare her for the non violent direct action campaign that has now started on the site. https://www.savewallum.com/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------> Please support community based independent media and make it possible for us to keep producing high quality environmental current affairs: Share this episode on social media, subscribe to this podcast, Like us on Facebook and invite your friends to do the same https://www.facebook.com/EnvironmentalAsAnything Support the Environmental as Anything show on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/EnvironmentalAsAnything Email story suggestions to us on: [email protected] (Environmental As Anything is produced on the stolen lands of the Bundjalung Nation) ©COPYLEFT: Environmental as Anything may be reshared and or rebroadcast by any not for profit community media for the purpose of informing and inspiring effective action for peace, justice and ecological sustainability.
