Politics and provocation - in parliament, on the street

Monday, 17 October 2016 - 10:30am to 11:00am

The Andrews state government in Victoria is coming up to the two year mark. That means they're halfway through this term of Parliament, with two years left before the next election. Friends of the Earth along with Environment Victoria, the Victorian National Parks Association, and the Wilderness Society are holding a series of community briefings to recap on what the government’s done so far with policies on the environment and climate, and to outline what needs to happen over the next two years. First up this week on Dirt Radio, we speak with Cam Walker, FoE Melbourne’s campaigns co-ordinator, about the briefings, why they're happening and how you can participate.

Mitch Jones goes by the name of Captain Ruin. He's a punk rock daredevil who specialises in death defying escapes, pain proof sideshow stunts, knife-throwing, and circus acrobatics. And he's on part 2 of the show where he explains the political and activist aspects of his theatrical and stunt work. He's a special presenter at a workshop happening this coming weekend, entitled Art and Heart – campaigning and creative activism.
