I believe long term industries including tourism, which nurture this unique environment should be cherished. Traditional industries including mining and forestry are essential but need to adapt to modern sustainable practices which preserve the west coasts natural assets. We cannot forget nor degrade the value of the natural environment. The takayna Tarkine wilderness area exemplifies this natural asset. It inherently maintains biodiversity, clean air and water, while helping to mitigate climate change and harbours as yet undiscovered pharmaceuticals. takayna Tarkine provides a wealth of opportunity for tourism and sporting pursuits supporting long term sustainable employment. It is these things for which we are guardians for future generations. I cherish time with my family, children, and friends. Recreational pursuits include paddle boarding, kayaking, bush walking, trail running, politics, vegetable gardening and bush regeneration and of course eating out and catching up with friends. I am committed to living sustainably. Including how and where I source food, manufactured products, transport, housing, and energy choices.
