Thomas Mayor from MUA spoke about the Uluru statement from the heart being ignored and how now the future adults of this country are being ignored. As a Zenadeth Kes man from the Torres Strait he knows the  real effects of our continued inaction.It was an energetic and ardent meeting strongly connecting  the profits made from fossil fuels with the devastation caused to people. #People before profits.In Sydney's Daily Telegraph for 25th March The IPA's Dr Bella D'Abrera called the strike "Outrageous"....." The National curriculum not only tells children that it's wrong to question climate change but it  also wants to turn them into left wing activists"....... "It's a damning indictment of our education system that children genuinely believe that Australian Government policy will make a difference to the world's climate".We also briefly hear from the court case Juliana v United States featured in the film "Youth V Gov. Renknowned Environmental lawyer Gus Speth says " This huge failure to rise to the moment, I think it's the greatest dereliction of civic duty in the history of the republic". Take note Sussan Ley. As I send this programme to community radio 3cr and Skid Row, a second huge emergency has been declared in the Northern Rivers of NSW, Lismore region. Instead of our show on the latest IPCC report, we are broadcasting, with permission, a brilliant interview which really takes you there.Sue Higginson, former head of the EDO is also a Lismore local and farmer. She is deeply aware of the connections between this devastation and the ongoing permits for coal oil and gas which turbo charge it. She tells about the heroism of this community which has a strong tradition of looking after each other. Sue comments on the DUTY ofCARE court case brought by young people against the minister for the environment.  Now Sue is going to the NSW Parliament to transform the laws. It is one of the rawest and best informed interviews you will hear and we thank Giordano and the Juice Media team. You can see their satirical Honest Government ad on the floods.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvFy2TuPDawand support them onwww.patreon.com/thejuicemedia Thomas Mayor's books https://www.hardiegrant.com/au/publishing/bookfinder/author/Thomas-Mayor?gclid=Cj0KCQjw_4-SBhCgARIsAAlegrUVqwqSH2E6T58ywK2Fsq3vp8k1jUy0lBO-B823z91cZg91k89757IaAtSoEALw_wcB
