Om denne podcast
Your insider scoop on all things cool, green and wild in metropolitan South Australia.
UPDATE: The Green Adelaide Podcast is taking a little seasonal snooze — consider it our Adelaide Rosella moment, nesting down for autumn and winter. We’ll be back chirpier than ever... just as soon as we’ve fluffed our feathers!
Do you want or have a career in South Australia’s environmental sector? Then this podcast is for you!
We are your enviro-exclusive on the people, projects and news of metropolitan SA.
The Green Adelaide Podcast is hosted by our Communication Manager, Melissa Martin.
On each episode she'll interview a local enviro-expert. From leaders and ecologists to planners and marketers to understand their career journey in and around the sector, as well as breakdown top environmental matters.
We’re not your regular environmental podcast, we’re your cool cultural podcast. How we live with our environment in Adelaide is a culture that we must talk about.
