Samantha Ratnam, Victorian Greens – Recycling Crisis & Gender Markers on Birth Certificates

Government & Organisations

Samantha Ratnam, leader of the Victorian Greens, joins Tom and Mikey to discuss some of the big issues she’s tackling in parliament right now.

• With recycling company SKM going under, a lot of recyclable materials will be dumped in landfill, so the Victorian Greens have called on the government to invest in a $50m recycling plant which could handle more than half of Victoria’s plastic recyclables.
• The Greens are supporting the current bill to simplify changing gender markers on birth certificates, which is important for trans and gender diverse Victorians.
