    If you haven’t seen Beau Miles’ Bad River documentary I highly recommend it. He follows the Cooks River from its ‘source’ in suburbia to Botany Bay, showing the current state and historical context of one of the most polluted waterways in Australia

      I have a chuckle everytime I pass Rhodes. People fishing. The apartments without the tasteful industrial machinery bits as monuments. I wonder if any of the people there know what the site was.

        People aren’t stupid and mostly innocent new sydneysiders - it is actually because some serious green-washing to the point that it is a gov cover-up of the dark history

        Instead of eyeballing them eat/drinking lead and other poison, we should educate them by sending them the articles

        p.s. Homebush bay, Zetland, Camellia, I actually have a map of all and building an App for it
