Professor Kingsley Dixon

ABC News - 4 March 2023

"Kingsley Dixon, restoration ecologist and Director of the Australian Research Council Centre for Mine Site Restoration, said it was even more concerning given Alcoa recently came under scrutiny for contaminated runoff from a bauxite mine near the Serpentine Dam, which supplies almost 20 per cent of the city's drinking water.

"There seems to be a pattern of behaviour, which is a major concern for water … and it's unclear the degree to which that has gone into the aquatic ecosystems," he said.

"PFAS doesn't degrade. It's one of those compounds that sits in the environment and we still don't fully understand its broader impact, particularly in aquatic community."

Professor Dixon said that as a Waroona resident, he was particularly alarmed, saying these were "controllable actions" and due diligence was needed to ensure environmental care and consultation was done with the community.

"I can only imagine, if your kids are swimming in that wonderful area, you wouldn't want to know [there might've been] a bit of a leak," he said.

"I'd be very comfortable to say that this is environmental negligence.

"There is no other way to explain it, and by international standards, if you're in any other place, such as the UK or the EU, this would be very severely dealt with." (Source: ABC News)

Meg Lanning - Australian Women's Cricket Captain

ESPN Cricinfo 4 March 2023

"Australia captain Meg Lanning is set to lead the Delhi Capitals franchise in the inaugural edition of Women's Premier League (WPL) that starts on March 4 in Mumbai. Lanning has won a record four T20 World Cups as captain for Australia, including the most recent one in South Africa last month having beaten the hosts in the final.

Lanning, 30, arrived in Mumbai on Thursday for the WPL. She has played 132 T20Is, scoring 3405 runs with two centuries and 15 half-centuries at an average of 36.61 and strike rate of 116.37. She has led Australia in 100 T20Is, the most by any women's player to captain a side in the format." (Source: ESPN Cricinfo)
