The Sustainable Hour

By Anthony Gleeson, Colin Mockett & Mik Aidt: The Sustainable Hour is a weekly podcast and FM radio program from Geelong, Australia, out at 11am on Wednesdays - "for a green, clean, sustainable Geelong" - since 2013. We talk about the climate, nature, energy and sustainability - about how we make our houses and apartments, gardens and streets, our neighbourhood, city or village greener, cleaner, more beautiful, nicer to live in, healthier, more economical, connected and resilient, while having good fun with it as well.
