Welcome to the July edition of the Environmental Practitioner
Over the past 3 months, Board members and other EIANZ members have been working hard to engage with leaders across Australia and New Zealand to promote the profession. Our President, Michael Chilcott reflects on achievements for the first half of 2016.
In this edition you can read about a variety of topics; from baseline radiological mapping to educating children on carbon emissions.
It is time to hear from you! Provide your feedback or share a study or project for the next edition of The Environmental Practitioner. The closing date for the next edition is 10 September 2016. Send your article to communications-editor@eianz.org.
For the next issue, I am keen to receive member snapshots (I might have to pick someone randomly!). The next photo section will have a marine theme, so if you have some good pictures, send them through.
