The Alps are at risk from climate change. Without serious and concerted action now to reduce greenhouse emissions on a global scale, the future of the Alps looks very uncertain, even just a few decades into the future.
This section is unashamedly activist in it’s approach and will cover a range of issues – the natural environment, climate change, current campaigns and developments.
Park management issues, including proposals for new parks in the Alps (check the right hand CONTENTS section for extra items)

Hi
I live in Batemans Bay; and in Melbourne and overseas before that. At the moment I am writing an anthology of poems, amongst other activities, to be published during this year. One is called “Monaro Autumn” and is both an ode to the high country, and a call for its continued environmental protection. If you would like to include it in your journal I would be happy to send it on to you; pre publication.
Kind regards, sincerely, Clinton
