Extractions: Clean Up Australia Ltd, Sydney Australia Environmental education is no longer simply about learning or raising awareness about how the natural systems work in isolation it is about acquiring new perspectives, values knowledge and skills to equip us to change our behaviours to support an ecologically sustainable environment for now and the future. Today I will outline the changing focus of environmental education in Australia and how recent initiatives in environmental education within NSW schools will prepare our youth to not just know about or experience our environment but more importantly manage our environment sustainably for generations to come. From the 1960s through to the 1980s environmental education in Australia was conducted in either specialist environmental centres such as zoos, field study centres or limited to individual subjects such as geography or natural science. In essence environmental education was being taught in isolation from other school activities.

Extractions: Last modified: Thursday September 24th, 1999 Otaria byronia (Blainville, 1820) There is some confusion about the correct scientific name of this species. Although Otaria byronia is now widely accepted, still Otaria flavescens (Shaw, 1800) is used as an alternative (Vaz-Ferreira, 1982). Rice (1998) argues, that O. flavescens is the correct name. Common names that are used instead of Southern Sea Lion include South American Sea Lion and Patagonian Sea Lion. Males measure on average 260 cm and weigh around 300 kg. Females are usually about 200 cm and weigh 150 kg. Pups measure around 80 cm and weigh from 10 to 15 kg. Male pups are usually bigger. The Southern sea lion has a dark brown dorsal side and a yellowish brown ventral. Males have lighter coloured manes. Females have no manes, but have a lighter coloured fur in the head and neck area. Pups are born with a black coat. After a few months they have a grey coat which at the age of one year is reddish brown. The Southern sea lion can be found on both the Atlantic and Pacific shores of South America. On the Atlantic side the range stretches from Rio de Janeiro at 23S down to the southern tip of the continent at 55S. At the Pacific side it ranges as far north as Zorritos in Peru (4S). There is no obvious migration.

Extractions: "As far as I know, there is no evidence of a link to livestock as the origin of the virus," said Hugh Davies, MAF director of reference laboratories at Upper Hutt's National Centre for Disease Investigation. A leading New Zealand epidemiologist, Professor Roger Morris, of Massey University, said the killer virus which has so far killed 14 people in Asia could have started in fruit bats, and its spread could be due to deforestation. The Hong Kong claim has been backed up by a finding in Germany, where particles resembling a paramyxo virus have been found in some laboratory testing on a Sars patient.
Extractions: There were many fine local anthologies produced in the 1980s, notably Mac Jackson and Vincent O'Sullivan's New Zealand Writing Since 1945 and Marion McLeod and Bill Manhire's Some Other Country ; there was John Barnett's All the Dangerous Animals are in Zoos , Michael Morrissey's The New Fiction and a slew of women's fiction collections, including three from New Women's Press and, most recently, Lydia Wevers and Elizabeth Webby's trans-Tasman Goodbye to Romance . None, however, found the wide international circulation this will: under Penguin's reciprocal arrangements with its sister companies, copies will find their way to bookshops in Britain, Canada, the US and Australia. So how does it compare with its predecessors, and what sort of picture of our short fiction does it give to those coming to it for the first time? Going by Haley's record as a writer and Davis's as co-editor of Antic , one might have expected them to produce a more refined version of The New Fiction . Such a book would be an ideal complement to 1984's Some Other Country , whose uncompromising subtitle 'New Zealand's Best Short Stories' is undeniably accurate, allowing for the self-imposed limitation of one story for each of the 22 authors chosen, from Mansfield to Marshall. A similarly-sized selection of subsequent work, a genuinely contemporary anthology, would be more than welcome. Then again, the editors could have used
