The Art of Climate Change.
Bike riding in the rain .. nothing could be more fun. Unless, you can also throw in a ClimARTE festival. With ClimARTE co-founder, Guy Abrahams, as our guide we biked from the Yarra to Melbourne Uni to seek out new exhibition works that ‘harness the creative power of the Arts to inform, engage and inspire […]
Tree planting at Dalyup (WA)
Hello Colleen, Thanks to Fifteen Trees supporters, we have been able to plant out 300 trees along the creek line at Dalyup. We have been working at this site for some time and the area was a very badly degraded spot before fencing and planting. Our local high school students pitched in on the day […]
Trees planted at Whirrakee (Vic)

Lifestyle Travel Ballarat.
I’m guessing we think alike when looking at the option to offset our flights. We wonder … just exactly where is the money going? We hesitate, we dither, we don’t quite understand the process and we end up not ticking the offset option. Leonie Spencer from Lifestyle Travel Ballarat asked the same question when I […]

Ten months later, Emily contacted me wanting to have more trees planted, this time on the behalf of herself and her […]
