The Future of the Murray Darling Basin
Dr Jennifer Marohasy | Dr John Williams | Sydney
Writer, biologist and founding member of the Australian Environment Foundation, Dr Jennifer Marohasy will debate the future of the Murray Darling Basin with commissioner of The Natural Resources Commission, Dr John Williams.
The NRC reports to the NSW Premier on a range of natural resource management issues including land, water, and biodiversity. Dr Williams is also a member of the Wentworth Group of Concerned Scientists.
Alarmed that public policy on environmental issues is increasingly driven by moral crusading rather than objective science, Jennifer seeks to provide a counterpoint in public debate.
