Ever wondered how fast a grass fire can move? With Bureau of Meteorology, New South Wales predicting a warm and wet spring there is likely to be good grass and crop growth across #NSW. With this growth will come the increased risk of grass fires. Maintain your property, be prepared and have a plan. #NSWRFS

(New from me): NSW's Environment Minister Matt Kean vows to press on with horse removal from Kosciuszko National Park, rebuffing attempts by Nationals leader John Barilaro to delay it. smh.com.au/environment/co… via The Sydney Morning Herald

@peterhannam1.bsky.social Wendy Harmer The Sydney Morning Herald As a Kosci neighbour, well done The Hon. Matt Kean . The feral horses are destroying the Park and it’s unique values. Removal has been delayed for far far too long.

@peterhannam1.bsky.social The Sydney Morning Herald Don’t let John Barilaro stop you The Hon. Matt Kean. His days are numbered. Yours are just beginnning. You follow the science, listen to experts, & act accordingly. The same cannot be said for Barilaro. The Nationals have no interest in the environment on their track record.

Great to see another record budget for the #NSWRFS. An additional $148.2 million will be spent in key areas of firefighter mental health, protective clothing, new and improved trucks, and enhancements to Fires Near Me. Important funding to support our volunteers and community

Thankful for being a panelist on the Australian 19/20 Bushfire Season at the Climate Change & Disaster Management Conference #GI4DM_2020

Good design in #bushfire prone areas takes all shapes and sizes. These windows face away from the bushfire risk , letting in light and views while limiting radiant heat transfer. @ Lindfield, New South Wales instagram.com/p/CJm5Fl5hl62/…
