Festival of Sustainable Choices will be an expo of stalls, presentations, panel discussions and workshops – looking at ways households, businesses and the community can save in big ways and small.
We’ve got high hopes for the festival following the raging success of our Sustainable House Day, touring innovative
and eco-friendly homes across the shire.
The expo will involve stalls, presentations, panel discussions, and workshops that focus on educating the community
about sustainable choices they can make.
These choices relate to the ten themes outlined in the Eurobodalla Climate Action Plan 2022-2032:

electricity supply and energy demand
integrated transport
built environment
waste
water supply and wastewater treatment
ecosystems and biodiversity
agriculture and livestock
regional economy
natural hazards
adaptive, responsive Council.

Women's Climate Congress - Moruya workshop on 13 Sept (free)
2024-09-13 14:30 - 17:00 | SAGE Garden, 110 Church Street, Moruya
If you will be at the South Coast on 13-14 September, please come along to our workshop on the WCC Charter for Change on 13 September or stop by to say hello at the WCC stall at the Festival of Sustainable Choices in Moruya on 14 September. And bring your friends – all welcome! More details and registration below.
The invitation
We are inviting women from Brinja-Yuin country/Moruya and surrounds (and any visitors) to come together to hear about the calls to action in the WCC’s Charter for Change. This Charter captures the universal longings of women for action to secure the climate for themselves and future generations and it places these aspirations in an Australian policy and social context. It has been crafted through conversations with many 100s of Australian women since the WCC was established in 2020 in response to the Black Summer fires.
This is an opportunity to share with others your thoughts, ideas and aspirations and to look at ways of breathing life into the Charter at the local level – or to get involved in the national and international work of the WCC.
Why come along?
We know that the next 5 years are critical to getting policies and practices in place to secure the climate. Women are rising here and internationally in ever increasing numbers to take their full and rightful place in decision making to create a safe future for their children and grandchildren, and to usher in a policy shift towards compassion, kindness, care and nurture of all Earth Life.
Who will host the gathering?
Janet Salisbury, WCC founder, with WCC founding members Kirsten Anker and Lyn Stephens will introduce the Charter and invite us to explore together how South Coast women, individually or collectively, can lead and participate in Charter aligned actions. Through facilitated and interactive conversations this event will encourage you to develop your own response – whether it be artistic, cultural, social, economic or political. We’d love to see you and your friends there!
Where and When
Where: SAGE Garden, 110 Church Street, Moruya
When: Friday 13 September, 2.30pm – 5.00pm
Delicious afternoon tea will be provided by SAGE.
This event is free, please REGISTER HERE.
The Women’s Climate Congress (WCC) is delighted to participate in the lead up to the Eurobodalla Shire Council’s Festival of Sustainable Choices by hosting a women’s gathering on the WCC Charter for Change, and we would like to acknowledge the support of the Eurobodalla Shire Council and SAGE in helping to make this happen.

Online debate for Mayoral candidates (upcoming local election)
2024-09-09 17:30 - 19:30 | Zoom, Moruya, NSW, 2537, Australia
The Moruya Mail, in conjunction with The Tech Exec’s Tricia Pye, will be holding an online debate for Mayoral candidates, this coming Monday 9 September from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.

The following link is the recording of the Mayoral Debate:
https://youtu.be/r75FHl0bEyk

Questions, which were submitted from members of the public, will cover Eurobodalla Shire Council finances, climate action, affordable housing, bushfire preparation, public transport, waste management and other topics.
SHASA had 5 responses from candidates/parties (see Recent News Post for their responses).
Questions from the public to the Mayoral Candidates (to be asked at the online debate):

How do you intend to really address the cost of the Batemans Bay pavilion (instead of just reducing services for all the ratepayers. (Iris Domeier)

What are your plans for improving affordable housing? (Michael Brown)

There were clear problems with the response to the 2019/20 bushfires. These included inadequacies in evacuation centres to cater for such large numbers of people and animals, and confusion within the community about where and when to go. A lot of research and funding have been directed toward improving disaster preparedness and response, with neighbouring shires like Shoalhaven and Bega Valley making significant changes at the council level.
What are your thoughts on the current efforts being made by our council in this area? What additional measures would you advocate for to improve our community’s preparedness, response, and recovery from future disasters? (Michelle Hamrosi)

We are seeing the devastating effects of climate change throughout our shire, country and planet. Major flooding, coastal erosion and bushfires are becoming more frequent events. What will you, as Mayor, do to stop new developments in high risk areas affected by sea level rise, floods, bushfires and in endangered ecological communities? (Giovanna Hounsell)

How would candidates address the need for much improved public transport including access to new hospital? (Karin Geiselhart)

If elected, will you support a strategy and plans to increase urban green spaces and promote the use of native plant species in public and private landscaping? (Coral Anderson)

What are your plans to improve reuse, repurposing and recycling?

If elected, what actions will you take to raise the profile of animal welfare within council’s LGA? (Coral Anderson)

Narooma specific

There is no wheel chair taxi in Narooma or south of Moruya. What will you do to enable people who are wheelchair bound access to the other great wheelchair friendly facilities in the town- such as the shared pathway, floating pontoons, wheelchair beach access mat and all the shops and restaurants that have had to put in disabled access.(Katherine Thackray)

Will you oppose the DA proposal to rezone semi rural land on the Old Highway Narooma. for 198 prefabricated houses on 250 square meter blocks of land, with the house only being sold (not the land), on heavily contoured land, with no flood water mitigation. The plan proposed to flatten the site with little, if any, consideration on that impact, and no community consultation. (Kelesi Woodhouse)

Broulee Specific

Given the proposed ‘Broulee Farm’ development on Broulee Rd is for land not zoned for housing, and was rejected by a vote of councillors earlier this year, what is the likelihood of it coming back to council. And if so, would you support it? (Linda Chapman)

We hope to see you online.
The local council election is on Saturday 14 September 2024.
