Melbourne's Residential Zones - Prof. Buxton - 2017 AGM

Prof. Michael Buxton from Environment and Planning at R.M.I.T. University.

Remembered by many as a  Councillor with Shire of Sherbrooke from1978 to 1984, Professor Buxton spoke on the changes to Melbourne's Residential Zones and the rise in townhouse and apartment style developments across Melbourne's suburbs.

Critical of government allowing increases in population in areas of Mt. Evelyn, Monbulk, Montrose, Prof. Buxton asked "Why would we want more population in Monbulk?"

The guest speaker at our 2016 AGM was David Rothfield. He spoke on behalf of Beyond Zero Emissions on "How do we build a post carbon future in Australia?".
The illustrated talk commenced with a diagram of the earth that is protected by an atmospheric layer, consisting of progressively diminishing thinner layers, with the major threat from carbon dioxide produced by the burning of coal.

Yellingbo State Emblems Park proposal - AGM 2011 guest Jeff Latter

Jeff Latter from the Woori Yallock Creek Park Alliance gave an illustrated talk about the proposal to create the Yellingbo State Emblems Park.
This proposal which covers 2,200 hectares on Melbourne’s fringe will link the Dandenong Ranges to the Bunyip State Park and the Yarra Ranges National Park through means of existing public land, which includes Nature Conservation, Bushland and Streamside Reserves. It will be the only location where all three of our terrestrial emblems, namely the Helmeted Honeyeater, Leadbeater’s Possum and Pink Heath are to be found while Yellingbo recognises the name of the last known Aboriginal person, hence the name Yellingbo State Emblems Park.
