Following that, we hear Phil Evans of Earth Matters, taking a dive into the renewable energy revolution happening in Australia, and asks: can offshore wind and whales co-exist? To do so Phil speaks with former Threatened Species Commissioner, Adjunct Associate Professor with the University of Canberra's Institute for Applied Ecology, and Dharawal man, Gregory Andrews, along with Dr Pete Gill, CEO and cetacean scientist with Blue Whale Study.
