Emergency Service: Country Fire Authority, Victoria
Why are you participating in the 6000-kilometre Run for a Safe Climate? My involvement in the run is to play a part in highlighting the solutions available to reverse the effects of climate change. I believe that we do have the ability to make a difference; to protect Australia and the other beautiful land of this earth. The future is definitely in our hands now, and some form of collective action is required.
What do you hope to achieve through the run? I am hoping that my actions and voice can be a part of that collective action. Having grown up in the outdoors, I am passionate about the wild and natural areas that are available to us. I have a love for the snow, remote alpine areas and the mountains. However, the effects of climate change can already be seen impacting on these sensitive alpine ecosystems. And it doesn’t stop there, as there are numerous other ecosystems that are showing the effects too! I am fortunate to have been able to experience these natural places. I would like this to continue, so that our future generations can experience the same wonders too!So get on board to be a part of the solution too.
