Belair National Park (the Park) is 835 hectares of diverse habitats, supporting many threatened species. The Friends of Belair National Park play a critical role in the on-ground management of this incredible biodiversity. As a volunteer group, we simply don’t have the numbers to adequately cover the entirety of the Park, so every extra pair of hands really counts.

How you can help Join us at one of our regular bushcare sessions: Tuesday and Friday morning: every week, 8:30 am to 10:30 am, meet at the Green Shed (near Main Oval) before 8:30 am Saturday morning: on the third Saturday of every month, from 9:00 am to 11.00 am, meet at the Green Shed at 9:00 am Thursday evening: alternate weeks during daylight saving periods, any time between 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, locations vary. Adopt a block – work in your own area, in your own time. See below. Help us in other ways. We’re always seeking more hands for non-bushcare tasks. Everyone is welcome to come and try, you don’t need to make a regular commitment, and there are many benefits for the Park and for you. We provide all training and tools; you provide the enthusiasm. If you’re new to bushcare and don’t know how it works that’s fine, we can help you find some easily identified weeds and show you how we remove them without causing damage to the native plants we are trying to protect.

Resilient by Nature: Creating Climate-Resilient Native Habitats

Green Adelaide will help you discover how to create a thriving habitat for Adelaide’s native wildlife right in your own backyard!

This hands-on workshop introduces the key principles of wildlife friendly gardening, helping you discover which local animals are in your area, what they need to thrive, and how to design a space that supports them.

By choosing native plants and a smart design, you aren’t just helping local wildlife - you’re building climate resilience right where you live. Native habitats cope better with harsh summers, use less water, and provide vital cooling islands for local fauna. It’s a win-win for you and nature!

You’ll also get the chance to get your hands dirty! Participants will have the opportunity to plant local species in The Precinct’s garden, gaining practical, real-world planting skills.

What we’ll cover:

An introduction to Adelaide’s native flora and why it matters.

How to identify and protect the wildlife already visiting you.

Practical tips for a nature-rich, climate resilient garden.

Tips about nest boxes and other habitat features.

Simple ways to get started and make an immediate impact.

Come along, get inspired, and transform your backyard into a thriving, resilient haven for local wildlife!

Plus, all participants will take home their own native plant to kickstart their backyard habitat.

Afternoon tea provided.

From Compliance to Competitive Advantage: Practical ASRS Climate Disclosure for SA Businesses

South Australian businesses are entering a new era of mandatory climate-related financial disclosure under the Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS). For Group 2 entities — those with 250+ employees, $500M+ in assets, or $200M+ in revenue — obligations begin from 1 July 2026. For Group 3 entities, the clock starts ticking from 1 July 2027.

But compliance alone isn’t the goal. The businesses that thrive will be those that use climate disclosure as a strategic lever — to attract capital, manage risk, strengthen supply chain relationships, and build long-term resilience.

Join 2XE and Cowell Clarke for a practical, no-jargon session designed for South Australian business leaders, finance professionals, and sustainability managers navigating ASRS climate disclosure. Whether you’re in Group 1 preparing for Year 2 reporting, Group 2 (reporting from 1 July 2026) or preparing for Group 3 obligations, this event will equip you with the knowledge to not just comply — but to use climate disclosure as a genuine business advantage. Expect real-world frameworks, legal context, and actionable strategies you can take back to your organisation the same day.

Please RSVP by Thursday 16 July 2026.

Join ThincLab and the Innovation & Collaboration Centre at Adelaide University for a relaxed morning tea with a purpose, as part of Adelaide Climate Action Week.

We’ll be unveiling the South Australia Climate Action Map — a living, growing picture of who’s doing what on climate across our state, from energy and transport to waste, agriculture, and adaptation. Over good food and good company, you’ll get to explore what’s already happening in South Australia, add anything we’ve missed, and stick up one thing you’re doing (or planning to do) for the climate.

No expertise required, no pressure, just tea, coffee, conversation, and a chance to be part of building something the whole community can use. Open to the public, students, industry, community groups, and anyone curious about climate action in SA.

An interactive workshop with community as part of co creating SA’s statewide climate movement strategy Join us for the very first co creation workshop to help shape the South Australia’s statewide climate and environment movement strategy.

This open workshop invites everyone involved in—or passionate about— nature, biodiversity and climate to connect, collaborate and create a shared vision for a stronger movement.

Why a statewide movement strategy?

The co created statewide movement strategy brings together a diverse cohort of community members, grassroots groups, campaigners, volunteers, advocates, and organisations to create a shared vision and plan for our movement.

Through this process we

build connections and partnerships

identify our movement’s strengths and needs

define our shared priorities and goals

develop a clear, practical plan on how to achieve this together

PROTECT: Ratbag Extremists face court Ten people were arrested in May as part of the movement against the destruction in Possum Park. A number have already been settled, but two (with a possible third and fourth) are seeking your support when they appear in the Magistrates Court 260 Victoria Square, Adelaide. This is a call out for as many people as possible with banners and placards to gather at the front of the courthouse to support them. This offers another opportunity to promote the cause. 🌳 BE AWARE that court dates and times may change. We will attempt to keep you updated if this happens. 🌳

Nine people with up to ten minutes each to tell a real story from their lives. Originated in Belfast in 2011, started in Adelaide in 2017. Tenx9 stories are all true, all different, all personal. We are constantly inspired, humbled and downright entertained by our amazing storytellers… get in touch if you’d like to join them! We don’t look for professional storytellers - just real people who have a true tale to tell.

Your story can be funny, sad, challenging, different: It just has to be a true story from YOUR life, and an interpretation of the theme for this month. This month, all spots are full, but come along, see what it’s all about, and think about a story on the theme for next month! (announced tonight, at the event)

Of course, if you fancy coming along to be part of our supportive and friendly audience, we’d love to see you - no pre-booking required, free entry - just support The Jade’s generous sponsorship by buying a drink at the bar.

NOTE - MEETING POINT IS BELAIR TRAIN STATION If you’ve gazed wistfully at the hills on your evening commute home or raised an eyebrow at the word ‘gravel’ but did not know where/how/who to ride with, this is the ride for you! We’ll be travelling at a casual pace and won’t be leaving anyone behind. However, these rides have been conceived as something of a ‘step up’ from our regular social rides, so if you’re thinking of attending please keep the following in mind: - We’ll be riding into the hills, so there’ll be climbing involved. At some points it’ll be so steep there’s no choice but to push your bike! Exercise makes you live longer, right? 😅 - Ensure you’re comfortable riding your bike on loose surfaces. We recommend a bike with a tyre of 35mm width minimum for comfort and control. - Bring along a spare tube or a way to fix punctures. - Ensure you bring adequate water and sunscreen. - Get your koala-spotting eyes ready. We always see a handful. ** Subject to confirmation pending weather conditions**

Action Network For everyone everywhere interested in Extinction Rebellion this talk, ‘Heading for Extinction (and what to do about it)’ is your entry point. We are facing climate and ecological catastrophe, and time is running out. Our political system is broken and our leaders are failing to protect us.

Find out about Extinction Rebellion, an international movement using non-violent mass civil disobedience as a tried and tested way to force governments to take the action that is needed.

‘Heading for Extinction and what to do about it’ generally precedes the Non-Violent Direct Action (NVDA)/Civil Disobedience training. This introductory talk and NVDA training will help you get involved with the XR movement. We also run regular online orientation/Q&A space for new rebels, which introduces you to Extinction Rebellion, how it works, what its aims, principles and values are, and how you can get involved. NVDA training is an introduction for those who want to participate in mass actions and you can also take part in more specific action skills trainings.

‘Heading for Extinction and what to do about it’ provides an up-to-date and honest picture of what is causing the climate emergency, and what needs to happen, urgently, to prevent the worst of climate disasters. There are opportunities for questions and discussion.

Come and explore how you can be part of the rebellion, starting now! All states and countries welcome.

Please register for the session by clicking the red ‘Send RSVP’ button to get the zoom link for the talk.

SAGE is a community for all folks who love and care for our planet. Our monthly gatherings are a space to nourish each other, so that we can nourish our world. Join us for an evening of delicious food, hearty discussion and new skills. The night will start with a shared meal, then we will move into community announcements, then into open space workshops, with lots of space for social breaks throughout. — On Sunday June 28th, we’re moving into our brand new home and we are SO STOKED about it! SAGE will now be held at YouthInc, an alternative school for 18-25 yr olds in a cool converted church on Pulteney St. We’re keen to build a mutual relationship with the generous YouthInc crew and help make the space our own for the long haul. Of course, SAGE is still (& will always be) for all ages. Young or old, parent or pensioner, first-timer or seasoned activist - everyone is welcome. So, to celebrate moving to our new home, the theme this month is “PLAY: Come over to our place” 🏡 The night will be created entirely by the community - anyone can bring a workshop or a discussion idea. And if you’ve got a mate who could run a good workshop on this theme, call them up & invite them! Some ideas: ✊️ Maybe “play” makes you think of playing with the rules, playing with new worlds and systems. 🏡 Maybe “play” takes you back to your roots and reminds you of childhood games you could bring 🏸 Maybe you have an idea for an unfinished workshop that you want to experiment with running 🎷 Maybe you want to bring an instrument, or an art form ‼️Or something else entirely! As always, you can bring a workshop NOT about the theme too - all ideas welcome. – Some other things you might want to bring… 🍲 A plate of food to share for the potluck dinner 🫒 Veggies or seedlings for the produce swap 🧵 Something to mend at the mending corner 🌟 Snergy to help shape the new space and make it our own!! Run through of how the night will (roughly) go… 4:30-5:15pm: Arriving, Sharing food. 5:15-5:45pm: Welcome, Community Announcements. 5:45-7:45pm: Open Space Workshop Sessions (including a break for tea/chats). 7:45-8.00pm: Closing Circle. All welcome. Come anytime that suits you. A new accessibility guide for YouthInc will posted soon. See you there!

The next event in our movement skills training series is: Communities of Care - with Trish Hensley and her affinity group, Rakali Resolution. This workshop is for anyone who works in groups or teams and would like to explore ways of creating new ways of working together.

Coffee. Bikes. Nature. Good company. High caffeine, low stakes. Break up your working week and join us for our Coffee Outside event! Coffee Outside is an international movement that started around a decade ago in California with the aim of bringing the cycling community together to talk bikes, coffee and adventure. Since then, it has spread around the globe, and in 2025, reached Adelaide! The premise is simple. Bring yourself, your bike, and a beverage of choice to the designated meeting spot at the designated time. Hang out with other people and their bikes and drink said beverages together. That’s it. Coffee’s in the name and we encourage people to go nuts. Want to bring your camp stove, grinder and moka pot and make everything there? How about hot water and an aeropress? Instant coffee? A thermos of batch you made at home? Tea? Fruit juice? Whatever it is, we don’t care, so long as you like it. We look forwards to sharing in this new event with you and hope to see you there!

We produce a massive amount of waste each year. How can we live more intentionally and make greener choices in our everyday lives?

Join us as we explore practical, creative and community-led ways we can all take action together and avoid greenwashing.

Here’s what’s happening:

4:00 – 5:00 pm | Create Bin Stickers Start the evening with a creative session led by Kris and James from Bugs n Slugs. Design your own stickers to raise awareness and make your bins stand out. All materials provided.

Join a relaxed community conversation exploring the idea that there is no “away” when it comes to waste, and what it really means when we say “throw it away”. Facilitated by members of the local PECWRAG group, this session will encourage honest discussion about consumption, waste and responsibility.

Discover visible mending as a creative way to extend the life of your clothing, bags and fabric items. Led by Donna Gordge from Stitch Paint Burn Studio, you’ll learn different stitching techniques to repair or decorate textiles. You can create a patch to take home or bring along items you’d like to mend or personalise. No sewing experience needed.

🌼 Free natural cleaning products to take home will be available at the end of the evening.

Belair National Park (the Park) is 835 hectares of diverse habitats, supporting many threatened species. The Friends of Belair National Park play a critical role in the on-ground management of this incredible biodiversity. As a volunteer group, we simply don’t have the numbers to adequately cover the entirety of the Park, so every extra pair of hands really counts.

How you can help Join us at one of our regular bushcare sessions: Tuesday and Friday morning: every week, 8:30 am to 10:30 am, meet at the Green Shed (near Main Oval) before 8:30 am Saturday morning: on the third Saturday of every month, from 9:00 am to 11.00 am, meet at the Green Shed at 9:00 am Thursday evening: alternate weeks during daylight saving periods, any time between 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, locations vary. Adopt a block – work in your own area, in your own time. See below. Help us in other ways. We’re always seeking more hands for non-bushcare tasks. Everyone is welcome to come and try, you don’t need to make a regular commitment, and there are many benefits for the Park and for you. We provide all training and tools; you provide the enthusiasm. If you’re new to bushcare and don’t know how it works that’s fine, we can help you find some easily identified weeds and show you how we remove them without causing damage to the native plants we are trying to protect.

If you need more information contact Catherine Miles 0408 640 377.

One Nation is dominating the narrative right now – and it’s not because Pauline Hanson is suddenly more persuasive.

The hoarding of wealth and resources by the few has caused an economic crisis for the many, and the political mainstream are failing to put forward an ambitious solution people can get behind. When we fail to articulate a believable path out of a crisis, or worse stay silent for fear of getting it wrong, a vacuum appears. Enter One Nation who have filled it and, as a result, are dominating the mainstream media with divisive messages targeting people based on their race and gender, pitting communities against each other for political gain.

While the conversation is centred around Pauline Hanson’s sudden ascension to being preferred Prime Minister, social proofing for One Nation continues to climb, we continue to cede ground, and communities of colour and immigrants are rightly feeling abandoned.

Here’s what we know:

People are angry and outraged about the economic crisis, and billionaires have succeeded in scapegoating marginalised communities (including immigrants, trans people, and working class communities). Globally, anti-immigration parties are gaining in traction as a result.

Newer One Nation supporters are generally doing it tough and are looking for a way to protest and challenge the ‘political elite’ (aka major parties – and even civil society organisations), who they feel have failed them. They don’t always support One Nation policies, but are looking for alternatives that aren’t elitist. As a result, attacking Pauline Hanson in fact moves persuadables away from our messages of fairness and justice.

The solutions to improve the lives of everyday people are our solutions – real wage rises, tackling housing inequality, stemming corporate greed, ensuring access to public health and education – yet this is the opposite of the current conversation. Put simply: our messages aren’t cutting through.

We’ve invited Anat Shenker-Osorio to host a snap briefing to share frank advice on how we turn this around. Anat has spent years figuring out how progressive movements break out of this stagnation; build solidarity across race, class and genders; and give people a vision to get excited about. The briefing will include a presentation plus Q&A with Anat.

Many of us are feeling the emotional effects of living through environmental and social change. We may feel grief for what is being lost, anxiety about the future, overwhelm, helplessness, anger, sadness, or simply a growing sense that something is deeply out of balance.

After listening to Kriss Kevorkian’s recent webinar, many people expressed a desire for spaces where these feelings can be shared openly and honestly; without judgement, pressure to “stay positive,” or the need to immediately turn feelings into action.

The HEC Environmental Grief Support Group has been created in response to that need.

These gatherings offer a supportive community space to gently explore the emotional impacts of climate change, ecological loss, and the uncertainty of our times. Together, we will create space for reflection, conversation, connection, and mutual care.

This is not therapy, nor a political strategy session or debate space. It is a facilitated community support group for people wanting companionship, understanding, and the opportunity to process difficult feelings alongside others who may feel similarly.

The groups are grounded in the understanding that grief is a natural and healthy response to loss. When grief is shared in community, it can deepen connection, resilience, compassion, and our capacity to remain present to life.

It’s Plastic Free July, which means it’s time to look around your home and ask some hard questions. Take the bin liner, for instance. That sad little plastic bag doing one job before heading straight to landfill…we can do better. And why spend money on compostable bin liners for your organics when you can make your own? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to fold newspaper into sturdy, compostable bin liners that actually work. It takes less than ten minutes to learn, which means you’ll have plenty of time to feel very smug about your life choices for the rest of the month. Come, fold, and leave whenever you’re done (hopefully with a bunch of bin liners to take away). No origami experience required. Places are limited. Grab a ticket before they’re gone. ($5)

Everyone is welcome, no prior experience needed. All you need is comfortable clothes to move freely & desire to have a good time. Voluntary contribution. Send a message to Estel to save your spot. estelcapoeira@gmail.com

How do we build a majority for transformative progressive politics?

With support for the old establishment parties crumbling and One Nation on the rise, it’s clear people are fed up with the status quo and want change. But right now it feels like we’re stuck.

Join Max Chandler-Mather, Executive Director of the Green Institute, and Melanie Selwood, Greens MLC for South Australia, to hear the plan on how we can build a movement capable of taking on the corporate and political establishment, and win real change.

We need an economy that works for people, not corporate profit. A government that represents everyone, not just a few corporate and billionaire donors. And, a movement capable of delivering it.

To win that we need to build real, meaningful connections with everyday people.

Come along and hear how you can get involved, and start taking the first big steps towards building the movement.

Belair National Park (the Park) is 835 hectares of diverse habitats, supporting many threatened species. The Friends of Belair National Park play a critical role in the on-ground management of this incredible biodiversity. As a volunteer group, we simply don’t have the numbers to adequately cover the entirety of the Park, so every extra pair of hands really counts.

How you can help Join us at one of our regular bushcare sessions: Tuesday and Friday morning: every week, 8:30 am to 10:30 am, meet at the Green Shed (near Main Oval) before 8:30 am Saturday morning: on the third Saturday of every month, from 9:00 am to 11.00 am, meet at the Green Shed at 9:00 am Thursday evening: alternate weeks during daylight saving periods, any time between 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, locations vary. Adopt a block – work in your own area, in your own time. See below. Help us in other ways. We’re always seeking more hands for non-bushcare tasks. Everyone is welcome to come and try, you don’t need to make a regular commitment, and there are many benefits for the Park and for you. We provide all training and tools; you provide the enthusiasm. If you’re new to bushcare and don’t know how it works that’s fine, we can help you find some easily identified weeds and show you how we remove them without causing damage to the native plants we are trying to protect.

If you need more information contact Catherine Miles 0408 640 377.

You’ve just been handed the top job on Earth. Your mandate: keep global warming within the Paris Agreement’s 1.5 - 2°C, protect nature, keep the economy strong, and make sure the transition is fair to everyone. No pressure.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll take the controls of En-ROADS: the world-renowned climate simulator built by MIT Sloan and Climate Interactive, used by governments, business leaders, and negotiators around the world. Pull the real levers of change: energy prices, renewables, transport, buildings, land use, population, economic growth, and watch the global temperature respond in real time.

Working in small teams, you’ll debate trade-offs, test your instincts against hard system dynamics, and discover which solutions actually move the needle, and which popular ideas barely shift the dial. Expect some surprises. Almost everyone’s first plan misses the mark, and that’s exactly where the learning starts.

Come ready to argue, experiment, and think like a planetary leader. You’ll leave with a genuine understanding of what it takes to solve climate change, and a sense of what’s truly possible.

No science background needed — just curiosity and a willingness to make some big decisions.

Agenda 1 The mission: You are now the CEO of Earth. You need to manage four goals: climate, nature, economy, and social justice.

2 Meet the simulator Live demo of En-ROADS. See how it responds and establish the baseline: where we’re heading under current policy, what you can do, and how you can see what was impacted.

3 Team huddle Groups of 3–5 form. Before touching the sim, each team debates and sketches a strategy on paper: what will they prioritise, and what will they trade off?

4 Take the controls Teams access the simulation and build their plan, testing levers against the four goals.

5 Report back Each team shares their headline result again one or more of the four goals e.g. final temperature, the economy, nature and social justice as well as one surprising thing they learned.

6 Debrief What actually worked, common traps, and how this maps to real-world action. Closing: what are we taking away?

Hosted by the Adelaide University Greens Club and Adelaide University Film Society, a screening of the latest Bob Brown Foundation film documentary on Takayna, Australia’s largest temperate rainforest.

Location; Union Cinema, (Level 5, Union House) Adelaide Univeristy City, East Campus

Doors: 6:30pm

About the Film (extracted from the official website for the movie)

Through the power of personal stories, be taken on a journey to the vast and threatened landscapes of Australia’s largest temperate rainforest in northwest Lutruwita / Tasmania.

This area, known as Takayna / Tarkine, is one of the last wild places on Earth.

‘Takayna — the Heart of Lutruwita’ is an inspiring and hopeful film about the battle to defend Takayna from mining and logging.

These people are fighting for its protection, and you can as well

Bring your friends and come along to this wonderful event to raise awareness on climate conservation.

This talk is not ticketed, please arrive early to avoid disappointment.

We live in a world of urgency, crises and finding immediate solutions. But many of the challenges we face aren’t technical, they are relational and systemic. They live in how we meet each other and how we perceive the living systems we’re part of and are in dynamic movement together.

In this Warm Data Lab*, you are invited to step out of fixing, ‘faster’, and fragmentation, into a space for collective conversation, creating conditions of the soil for new ideas and perceptions.

We won’t have panels, presentations or experts. There aren’t going to be five top actions you can take right now.

​​Just story-sharing across the many contexts that shape real life. And in this space of being together, we cultivate different conditions that may just allow some new insight or noticing.

​This is an invitation to slow down, arrive exactly as you are, with all your messy complexity, and be in the stories together. What happens if we shift the conditions that allow for possibility to emerge?

We are also hosting an event on Thursday 30th July 6.30-9pm for those unable to make this time.

Warm Data Labs were created by Nora Bateson as an approach for noticing and exploring complexity, by moving through it together.

In a Warm Data Lab, people share stories across the many contexts that shape their lives. The intention isn’t to achieve certain outcomes or solve problems, but because something often becomes visible in that crossing of perspectives that isn’t visible anywhere else. Its found in the gaps, the contradictions, the unexpected resonances between very different lives and experiences.

These labs can feel unfamiliar. As the process is both deeply familiar, and yet it doesn’t resolve to comfort or clarity. It is important to note that this is not a flaw in the design.

Warm Data itself is Nora Bateson’s term for information that is ‘alive’ and in movement. Information that keeps its context intact, the relationships, conditions and entanglements that give it meaning. Where most data strips that away, noticing warm data reveals these independencies and give us a deeper appreciation of our entanglement.

Who pays? What gets funded? Who benefits? and who decides?

Trillions of dollars are now being mobilised globally for climate action, yet many of the communities facing the greatest risks struggle to access finance. From Pacific Island nations to remote Aboriginal communities and regional Australia, climate resilience raises profound questions about equity, justice and shared prosperity.

South Australia has an opportunity not only to accelerate its own transition, but to help demonstrate how climate finance can deliver benefits for people and places often left behind.

Join influential leaders from finance, philanthropy, and academia for a panel conversation on the future of climate finance.

Our speaker lineup features leading voices driving climate action and investment, including Charles Yu, Regional Lead – Sustainable Finance, Asia and the Pacific, United Nations Development Programme and Dr Amanda Cahill, Founder of The Next Economy with more speakers to be announced.

This forum offers an exceptional opportunity to hear from experts, engage with peers across sectors, and build connections to accelerate climate action.

What to expect

Gain practical insights into the evolving climate finance landscape across Australia and the Pacific.

Hear diverse perspectives from leaders working across investment, government, philanthropy and the climate sector.

Build new relationships with decision-makers, practitioners and changemakers committed to financing climate solutions.

Ask the questions that will drive key insights to shape an ACAW Communiqué to the COP31 Taskforce.

Whether you’re an investor, policymaker, business leader, researcher, philanthropist, community advocate or interested citizen, this forum is an opportunity to be part of the conversation shaping how South Australia finances a climate-ready future.

We are proud to partner with venue host Adelaide University, whose valued support helped bring this flagship event to life.
