Greg --

Hi [NAME],

I was really pleased to be part of the 100 Climate Conversations podcast series, produced by the Powerhouse Museum.

*Clover Moore and Benjamin Law sit on modern arm chairs facing each other in conversation. * https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=TgbF94RZFWn4ASwwQe3KR5FYA5LVMZiEBL9ybedNZOtjltRnUVS1TyvoU8joTNFIkR56KXyHQP0czcoDTUnRiA&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=3

This important series aims to inspire action on climate change through evidence-based research and action.

*The City of Sydney has been carbon neutral since 2007 and we reached our goal of reducing our emissions by 70 per cent by 2030 in 2021, nine years early.*

We are using 100 per cent renewable electricity in our buildings and facilities and working to increase the city’s tree canopy cover by 50% by 2030. We are on track to achieve net zero emissions by 2035.

*Thank you to the **Powerhouse Museum* https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=27Ax0UmWOX2J8J_QwK9Z6n_Mhyrux1UhooItkOw9QnqZqSmfzF6fdxZS5aQpwn2zE9wIU-_3Qvy9CYIaMEi0-rB2d6xVwit5SZdrpFyf9RWgxAgz8Se1Xf1M3_smeI8d98GlV3uDM7V1rvSOWths2zRc2x_VrZ9XijK23gtAr2Q-4XxGNbi8XDujp_WM3aZJDMRpfGVTTez5CsY0V8JNQEQfg6b8KqRdRAfTrdx-PHfzwfYylcuq-ccXp5voauJuNA9Fi3hXZ_fDGNaElc5C26ywsrp2bVq6E_uOCWxBgr5-sU42IinPbhVh5DMSHsYWh9ie8LD2IMZH9prJqw92gw&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=4*for inviting me to take part in this crucial conversation.*

Help secure a light rail stop at Wimbo Park!*

There is currently only one stop between Central Station and Moore Park in Surry Hills – help us change that!

*We have been calling on the State Government for years to deliver on their promise of a second stop at the corner of Devonshire and Bourke Streets.
*
We are about to spend millions upgrading Wimbo Park (see the artist’s image of the park above!) and we’ve made sure the designs will accommodate a stop. So, now’s the time for the Government to lock it in.
*
**Sign the petition today: light rail stop at Wimbo Park**!* https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=aDRdpDfXeI8Gdrzycx2wwt9tUvJNRyV4URZifuSKopUmxMKD-TsigX6ssnf8vm_dFR76hOZDhqfVhp2jGT--9gJYAOYXMvjuKz-4IBD7MtrC1G1Ga7Zg6RvbpjTENkbB&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=6

*Sydney celebrates Refugee Week!*

We are proud to be one of the country’s most diverse cities. Around half of our residents were born overseas, and more than a third speak a language other than English at home.

We have been an official refugee welcome zone https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=r6_GtvD6G126PI5YF-FsQ7YivYEkhpogDsrzHiwaRXao-J4uQDhD9YlsgKoIptYHucoURp5-jkqpAjNtDTeLJKrPhRAGtnkEpm25IfEd6cc&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=8 since 2005, when Council declared its commitment to welcoming refugees and people seeking asylum in our area. This was also a commitment to upholding human rights, demonstrating compassion, and enhancing cultural and religious diversity.

*This Refugee Week – Sunday 19 to Saturday 25 June – we celebrate the contributions refugees and people seeking asylum make in our communities.

*There are several ways you can get involved, and learn more about refugees and the rich cultural backgrounds they bring to Australia:

*Help make our city even more accessible ***

The City is for everyone.One of the key commitments made in the City’s inclusion (disability) action plan 2021–2025 https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=vivAcovBaeedVBDZ2dzcv4zUzejg1tOJVybvbRBLcrWlF9mOqUYii1397BRNd77LqpwX17MOScHv0fdngBXcdND3ry_eCQ7Y048VdpETOLFjwQbd7OsD9QtIzT_-m4vb&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=17 is to address accessibility issues around footpaths and kerb ramps, including:

* Slippery, uneven, damaged or bumpy footpaths, narrow footpaths and
trip hazards like tree roots;
* Footpath obstructions from outdoor dining, telecommunications
infrastructure, illegal dumping or clutter on footpaths and
bicycles; and
* Issues related to steep and narrow kerb ramps.

Over the last two years we have been working to fix these problems and we would love your help to identify spots that still need attention.

*Please take a few minutes to fill in our city streets and footpaths survey https://clovermoore.nationbuilder.com/r?u=vivAcovBaeedVBDZ2dzcv4zUzejg1tOJVybvbRBLcrXqgWROHQLLKCvCELCHM2rcrd3cFNmEajNJ_8dE8oM6hFMbeNJsMBeptnXAz8fxpRR8BTDi9GTOt_iUJZ6PkD6isfMbqbA_N6_QQDXecTEPi5QKT0DNw-V8I4Dw2vQt_5Co1tinm7Eb2V-NE941KmWRHTEIOh1FHSxgPvphTdcwTfeDZrOSI6rpeP7Rfi_Ns4s9Lt4tOltN3UzmTDz13bV-&e=00c9b4b1cde980d805aab5d4ce56443a&utm_source=clovermoore&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enews_1002_220617&n=18.*

All the best,
