POPULARITY
On this week's show we are extremely honoured to welcome the indefatigable Laurie Levy, a man who was there during the beginnings of whale rescue in Australia in the late 1970s and who has dedicated half his life to banning duck and waterbird shooting in Australia. Before his activism, Laurie was a cameraman at GTV9 when television began and worked alongside greats such as Don Lane and Bert Newton. He watched technology change before his eyes. Laurie is a bona fide legend and should be honoured, having achieved many great changes and mobilised many people to bring about justice to some of our fellow creatures on our lands and in our seas. We thank him greatly for being our guest this week.duck.org.au1993 Lake Buloke duck recoveryFreckled duck2018 Lake Cullen

#ITC25: Laurie Levy on Levy v Victoria From the mid-1980s, Laurie Levy waged a campaign against duck shooting. In the early to mid-1990s, the High Court began to expand on the notion of an implied freedom of political communication. In 1994, Laurie Levy was charged with unlawful entry into a duck hunting area, and his campaign and the implied freedom collided in the High Court.

On this week's show we delve into the (not-so-fictional) universe of Cli-Fi, or climate change fiction. We hear from novelists Alice Robinson, and Naomi Oreskes.And later in the program, something that should be relegated to the world of fiction, but unfortunately is all too real. The duck shooting season has started again in Victoria, and so too has the campaign to stop it. We speak with Laurie Levy, long-time activist with the Coalition Against Duck Shooting.Guests: Alice Robinson (author and lecturer in creative writing at NMIT), Naomi Oreskes (author and Professor of the history of science at Harvard University), and Laurie Levy (Campaign Director at Coalition Against Duck Shooting).

He still duck hunts in certain areas that he has been hunting for years.
