PART 2 The air we breathe - exploring air pollution issues in the city of
Melbourne
In the second part of our series exploring air pollution issues in the city
of Melbourne, today we take a closer look a Melbourne's massive road
building ventures.
The City Link project involves the construction of some 22 kilometres of
freeway, including 2 tunnels. Of particular focus, is the so-called Burnley
Tunnel, which will emit its exhaust from one solitary tunnel in Richmond.
Ruth Clemens of the Richmond Action Coalition on Freeways - or RACOF! -
joins us today on Earth Matters to explain the particular concerns about the
tunnel and its pollution emission and why Richmond residents feel frightened
and abandoned by the Environment Protection Authority (EPA).
We also hear from Public Transport User's Association Vice President, John
McPherson, and Brian Robinson, Chairman of the EPA, on how the authority is
attempting to fulfill its brief of "restoring" Melbourne's air quality.
Finally today we hear from Bronwen Machin of Environment Victoria on the
many and varied things that individuals can do, and from John about how the
ruling elite have such an obsession with the automobile.
