Listen to an excerpt from 3CR's Monday Breakfast with hosts Lucy and Will

21 August 2017

 – #WalkThisWay: Shalini Rautela of Friends of The Earth Melbourne comes in the studio to talk sustainable futures for Melbourne. FoE is running the Sustainable Cities campaign, asking Melburnians to think about the future of their growing city and to support a change from high-emission transport to public transport and active transport (cycling, walking, skating, unicycling...). #WalkThisWay is a fundraising campaign where Melburnians are being asked to get sponsored to join a walk from Southbank to Fitzroy and raise awareness of infrastructure disparities and shortfalls in the city. Register and get your friends and family to sponsor you!

 – The Parasite Plebiscite: 2015 Tasmanian of The Year and longtime LGBTQIA+ advocate and academic Rodney Croome comes on the show to talk about the Federal Government's proposed postal survey on Marriage equality. Croome covers the shady business leading up to the approval of the survey, the potential damage of the No-vote campaign to LGBTQIA+ mental health, and the two challenges mounted in the High Court against the survey. You have three days left to enroll to vote (closing 24 August)

Happy listening :-D
