Derrimut Factory Fire

Wednesday, 31 July 2024 - 9:00am to 10:00am

 Kevin and Zeb start the show with a current affairs update, touching on:

  • the disastrous oil spill in the Philippines cause by Typhoon Gaemi;
  • raging fires in California;
  • the impressive win for the Mirarr people in stopping uranium mining at Jabiluka;
  • commentary on the allegations against the CFMEU; and
  • Westpac's gag order on court dispute

 Helen van den Berg joins the conversation to provide insight into the fire at the ACB Group factory and its potentially severe and longlasting effects on the environment. What can we do to reduce the risk of these fires and mitigate their impact into the future?
