That's awesome, there should be more videos like this out there. There's something about the power of seeing, that really makes an impact.

A little about me...

Hi, I’m Cara.
I work for Oxfam as a campaigner, and I love it! I get to work with a bunch of truly inspirational people, and every day presents new challenges and opportunities (read: never a moment to check facebook).
At the moment, one of the projects I am working on is the UN climate change e-monitors initiative - I attended the last UN climate chage negotiations in June in Bonn, Germany. Phew! What an experience - you can check out my blogs here and Join the the UN climate change e-monitors group to stay up to date with the latest on the international climate change negotiations.
When I’m not at work you can usually find me surfside with my body board or a good book (though I’m yet to combine the two).
Another favourite activity of mine is browsing op shops, where I can combine two of my passions, garish 80s fashion and caring for our planet in every little way that I can.

What will PM Julia Gillard do on climate change? Call her and ask!

Hi guys,

I'm a big fan of the 350.org movement. I'm continually inspired that here in Australia it's run completely by two wonderful women (who do many other things as well run 350.org Australia) yet they always manage to punch well above their weight (to steal some words from our ex-PM) and generate awesome actions!

Below is the latest email from them, and a damn good idea. I just popped into my call to Julia's office and got a slightly annoyed sounding person, which

Don't put polls before climate

There is a very interesting article in today's Australia, "Don't put polls before climate: UN scientist"... it made me think back to some reserach that was commissioned by WWF Australia a few weeks ago. They undertook a poll of 1, 600

great to see some on the ground climate activism in your trip to europe last year.
i too was in Germany last year as keynote speaker at greening education conference. some great networking now working in partnership with a university in argentina.
last month i ran a climate training session in israel.
all these travel experiences i then bring back to rural vic to help the community connect with 'real' global impacts
