Pillar Valley, NSW
On 9/11/19 my property at Nymboida burnt from a terrible bush fire. I lost my home and shed along with most of my belongings I had collect in my 56 years on the planet at that time. Leading up to that time I experienced very hot weather conditions. Up to 47 degrees on my veranda. I’m now deeply traumatised by that experience.
I have made a commitment not to ever fly again. When covid hit and the world slowed down the most polluted cities in the world’s air cleared up.
We can stop climate change. We need strong caring people in positions of power to lead us there. Not be influenced by money and greed!
