Event description

Time to get to (urban) nature again. On the first Saturday of each new season, Finding Nature Finds Nature. This time, at the iconic Yarranabbe (Rushcutters Bay).

This time round we will be hearing from Colin Finn as he helps us to imagine the lost and degraded landscape that is Yarranabbe and what is possible if we reprise First Nations knowledge systems, adopt logical economic and planning decisions (oh, the utopia!) and make science based climate impact decisions.

Colin has been spearheading work in and around Sydney Harbour in an effort to help Sydneysiders realise the critical value and burning platforms that two centuries of industrialisation, inequality and injustice have created along Sydney's harbour foreshore. At Yarranabbe, Colin is working with community members, experts and First Nations leaders to end the degradation of this spot and help to realise a more just, safe, rational and beautiful future.

Join Finding Nature as we discover more about the site, the perils its faces from rising sea levels and a changing climate, the pollution the bay holds, the challenges of local people as well as the transformative potential of blue green infrastructure to re-imagine, re-create and re-make this treasured place.

The experience includes your lunch from the incomparable Gus_tronomy, plus home-made kombucha to quest thirsts.

Get in quick, tickets won't last.
