Description
Environment Matters Seminar presented by the Conservation Council of WA
WA’s endangered black cockatoos are locked in desperate bid for survival and they need our urgent help! Native forest logging, land clearing, fire and drought have devastated their natural food suppl...ies and cockatoos now face starvation in many areas; including Perth suburbs where, if nothing is done, they will quickly run out of food.
Join us to learn what you can do to help save our cockatoos from extinction.
Guest speakers at the event will include:
· Ron Johnstone, Ornithology Curator, WA Museum
· John Bailey, Associate Professor and School Dean Environmental Science, Murdoch University
· Chris Phillips, General Manager Cockatoo Rehabilitation Centre (Kaarakin)
Piers Verstegen, CCWA director will chair the seminar, which will be followed by a Q&A session.
Date: Wednesday 8th February 6.15pm - 8pm 6.15pm – registration for a 6.30pm start
Venue: Lotteries House West Perth, 2 Delhi St, 6005 Perth
