Well – that’s Christmas over and done with for another year; all that’s left is the wrapping paper, cardboard and polystyrene packaging and a dead or plastic Xmas Tree. Wait – there’s also the left-over food. At least we can snack while watching the cricket or yacht race.
We could avoid the festivities and get away to some remote location?
Our work-mate Anne is doing just that – voyaging to Antarctica, to visit the driest continent on earth and view the penguins and seals in their natural environment. We have a chat with her before she leaves as she shares the excitement of the adventure.
We are reminded about gay Bob Brown, who has his birthday on 27 December (born 1944); the Greens politician (retired) and his fight for the Tasmanian environmental wilderness. Also sharing a birthday on 27 December (but 1822), was Frenchman Louis Pasteur, biologist and chemist, who devised a theory of ‘germs’, which led him to propose the concept of purification of germ-laden matter by using a technique he called ‘Pasteurisation’ and vaccination for humans.
We are also reminded about the Tsunami which devastated the Indonesian province of Aceh in 2004 with massive loss of life and property.
Listen to these stories and more, with some merriment – presented by Chris, Gordon & Phil.
First broadcast on 26 December 2017
