Description

At the start of the new year, I am putting on a fresh pair of glasses, so to speak, and looking at the people and places around me that I sometimes forget to see… I am surrounded by a city of green and warm summer air, and special people, whose names I may not know, but from whom I always get a smile. In this issue, we take a stroll through some of SA’s major cities to feel the unique heartbeat of every place.

It is true that ‘a place is only as good as its people’.  A celebration of our urban sprawls, to me, is also a celebration of our people. But as a society we have to face some hard truths. Ant visits Australia to report on the bushfires that have ravaged the country and saddened the world. The Australian people have lost so much in this devastating tragedy, including much of their natural environment and its unique species. This year let’s resolve to be responsible citizens of the earth who act against climate change and take care of our environment and its most special gift, its biodiversity.

Happy reading!
