  18. “Runaway” land-clearing in NSW

    "Almost 90 football fields of woody habitat were bulldozed e v e r y d a y in NSW – despite pledges to rein it in."

    “Given there’s been no policy change since the government were elected in 2023 it’s no surprise to see that land clearing hasn’t been fixed."

    “Every hectare of trees bulldozed means fewer homes for wildlife and more carbon pollution in the atmosphere." >>

  23. Tickets are now on sale for Parramatta Open on 29 August, and the list of buildings that are open to the public has been officially announced.

    And it looks like an especially great day out for anyone interested in Australian history:

    https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/

    First, there's an impressive list of all-day events, as well as talks and experiences that are planned.

    They include the chance to ring the church bells at St John’s Anglican Cathedral, tours of the holding cells at the Sydney West Trial Courts, a Fijian choir performance, tours of one of Australia's oldest colonial cemeteries, and history talks:

    https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/talks-tours/

    Given Parra is Australia's second-oldest colonial settlement after Sydney, and Australia's original seat of colonial government, there's a *lot* of early colonial buildings to explore (along with some newer ones).

    The buildings that will be open to the public include:

    Governor Lachlan Macquarie's dairy: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/the-dairy-and-rangers-cottages/

    The home of Australia's early colonial governors, including Captain Arthur Philip: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/old-government-house/

    The 44th floor showroom at LG's Australian headquarters: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/6-8-parramatta-square/

    One of Australia's oldest boarding schools for girls: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/brigid-shelly-building-our-lady-of-mercy-college-parramatta/

    The Lancer Barracks and Museum, home to the famous WW1 light horse brigade: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/nsw-lancer-barracks-and-museum/

    The Parramatta Female Factory, which was a labour site for female convicts who were sent to Australia. It was later repurposed as one of the country's first asylums:
    https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/parramatta-female-factory/

    And also St John's Anglican Cathedral, which is Australia's oldest currently-used church:
    https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/building/st-johns-anglican-cathedral/

    There's a host of other buildings on the program here: https://www.parramattaopen.com.au/program/
