Great to meet with @VicaBayley and @ChristineMilne and discuss how we can work together to #RestorePedder. Restoration is a unique opportunity for Tasmania and the world which the government of today has yet to grapple with. But together, we are making a plan for change.

Welcome to Day 1 of #NoDamsNovember Hydro’s destructive dam strengthening operations are on the horizon and we say NO. Ecological restoration, not dam operations, must be the priority. #RestorePedder #PullthePlugonPedder #RemovetheDamFloodRisk

Vale Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick. A dearly loved educator, academic and courageous advocate for nature. He was committed to restoring Lake Pedder and provided much of the scientific evidence to underpin the case for restoration. The world is greater for having had him in it.
