This is a new project I'm super dooper proud of! We've installed 120 stormwater litter traps across six metro councils in Melbourne to track litter and gather compositional evidence on what is really entering our drains and oceans. #letsstrainthedrains

[Sustainability Victoria @SustainVic]

We've partnered with @TangaroaBlue to install 120 stormwater litter traps across Melbourne. Now we're inviting volunteers to help us #StrainTheDrains in Maribrynong, Noble Park & St Kilda from 11-13 December as we sort & count to map urban litter hotspots: https://t.co/bDwPRjP8yS

"You're all environmental educators. Work the spectrum of science to love. Wear your different hats. Dissolve barriers and take your work to the next level" @CostasGarden What an inspirational, hilarious & heart warming way to finish the Waste Education Conference #VicWasteEd19

[Elaine Fernandes @Elaineways]

When your dream job was to be a landscape architect or a TV presenter and you meet your Gardening Australia idol. @CostasGarden said he loved my presentation on litter and yoga... Then YOU KNOW the feeling is mutual. ♥🌿 #VicWasteEd19 @SustainVic

Fan girl for 15 years! Thanks to @craigreucassel for making politics fun with CNNN and inspiring me to work in climate & recycling with #WarOnWasteAU. Last time we had a photo together, I was in Year 12 and now he is hosting our Sustainability Schools Awards at the MCG! #rssa19

Happy #WorldEnvironmentDay We're on a mission to help Victorians recycle correctly by sorting their coffee liquid, cups and lids. Loved working at Flinders Street Station and accosting unsuspecting coffee drinkers. ☕🚉 @SustainVic @metrotrains

Great to see former CLEX wunderkind @Elaineways all smiles (as usual).

I had an art attack. Did I just wake up in America? The only way I could get through today was with my brush tip and blank canvas. So I give you the new map of Australia, correct as of 19 May 2019. #electionblues #trump #ausdecides #auspol #ausvotes

Successful plastic pollution forum today! We're working with some of the best minds; from 3D printing with recycled plastic materials to the Seabin Project which is cleaning up our waterways. #thatsawrap @Seabin_project @SustainVic
