 GUESTS: Scot McPhie My guest in this episode, Scot McPhie, trained in anthropology, ornithology and creative arts and over time has occupied many roles as an environmental protection advocate, bird enthusiast, writer, filmmaker, performer and podcaster. One of Scot’s main nature protection advocacy actions in recent years in this region has been to support calls to local government to take a more assertive stand in managing infrastructure development proposals. So as to achieve a better balance between the closely linked needs of our human and more than human, natural world communities. So, what if we could achieve a better development balance in the years ahead? And what might it take to reach that goal?
