Coal Power Killing Australians.

Hi Keith,

We are pleased to announce that on Wednesday 21 November 2018, EJA will be releasing a report we commissioned into the health burden from air pollution due to electricity generation in NSW. 

This is the first report of its kind in Australia, despite decades of pollution belching from coal-fired power stations throughout Australia. The report has implications for millions of Australians.  

Be one of the first to hear about the findings direct from the author, Dr Ben Ewald an epidemiologist. During November, Dr Ewald will address a series of public forums in NSW. For details and to confirm you’re coming, click on the links below.

Sydney, 21 November, 6:30pm Glebe Town Hall

Newcastle, 26 November, 6:30pm Newcastle Town Hall 

Lithgow, 28 November, 6:30pm Uniting Church Parish Hall Lithgow

These forums are supported by the Nature Conservation of NSW, the Community Environment Network on the Central Coast, the Hunter Community Environment Centre, the Lithgow Environment Group and other local groups. 

As a trusted supporter, we will make sure you have a copy of the report delivered to your inbox as soon as it’s launched. We hope you can join us for the forum closest to home, and that you’ll help spread the word by sharing our events that advertise the forums. 

For clean air,

PS: Don’t forget to share our submission with your networks that calls for stricter license conditions for coal-fired power stations.

Excellent, one wonders why it has taken so long to make one of these?! When I was a kid they switched from horse drawn milk floats to electric milk floats, that was back in the 50s!!! Seems like no progress has been made since then. They had no solar back then, just batteries & the batteries were not as good as they are now; those milk floats covered a large area carrying a lot of weight! What happened from then until now???!!!

Making Our Own Mulch. Global Warming & Hotter Weather using too much water!

With the weather being much hotter here now we have had to use a lot of shade cloth & mulch. Purchasing mulch is expensive these days, the reason for that can probably be blamed on Global Warming too! So we decided to make our own mulch, we have been cutting the reeds down at Cattail Pond whilst the water level is low (!), & carting it up to the gardens to use as mulch. Some we use as is where we can, the rest we run through or mulcher. It works well & makes great mulch.
