THE GREEN EDITION

Our sustainability DUBBO’S Sustainability Expo and Science Festival is on this Saturday, August 25, between 10am and 2pm, at the Western Plains Cultural Centre. To coincide with the event, this week is Dubbo Photo News’ annual Green Edition where we highlight some of the many ways we’re already living sustainably – but more importantly you’ll read lots of suggestions on how we can all do better.

The environmental cost of technology WITH only one per cent of smartphones being recycled and the ecological cost of consumer technology expected to quadruple by 2040, tech-hungry Australians still have a long way to go to be truly environmentally-friendly. Problem areas identified in a report titled “How Smartphones are heating up the planet” include the mining of materials needed for tech, and the rapidity of tech turnover – we’re all being urged to upgrade to the latest smartphone as often as possible, and that’s proving to be destructive to our environment.

that our city cousins are finally aware of the drought, and that’s mustering their support in all sorts of ways. We as a community shouldn’t overlook the enormity of the support being provided by State and Federal Governments, with that tally well past the $1 billion mark. Kelly Morgan, who helps look after Vinnies’ in our region, said the people working in their country stores are witnessing first-hand what farmers are facing. Here in Dubbo, staff at our local Vinnie’s store are working overtime to do what they can. Anne Hughes (pictured left) has been at Vinnies for 29 years

and Robyn Duncan for nine years. The ladies wanted to say that, right now, they need buyers as well as quality donations. They wanted Dubbo Photo News readers to know that they have some awesome bric-a-brac in the store as well as clothing. The more people who come to the store and buy things, the more money Vinnies have to buy food, blankets, and so on, they said. “There are some beautiful kids’ books starting from 50 cents, too.”
