I've had no (or very limited) mobile reception for two days. Highlights summary: a morning dip in the #GreatAustralianBight at #Eucla; crossing the #Nullarbor from west to east; and the Bight Lookouts along the way. ❤️🚍 #vanlife #roadtrip #australia

#SouthernRightWhale numbers increase in #GreatAustralianBight #MarinePark but new threats emerge.

"With the increase in #whales in our oceans & the increase in marine-based industries — including recreation, tourism, #oil & #gas, offshore renewables and shipping — the threats the species face also grow."

The Nullarbor's rich cultural history, vast cave systems and unique animals all deserve better protection

Most of us see only the dry treeless plain and spectacular sea cliffs. But beneath the surface there’s a precious world of caves and unique species that could be lost without better protection.

STOP RELEASE OF EXPLORATION ACREAGE AT SEA FOR FOSSIL FUEL EXPANSION

At sea, iconic places like #Ningaloo and the #GreatAustralianBight need to be protected and not sacrificed to the #FossilFuel industry. Damaging their sensitive #ecosystems places protected marine life at risk, like the Australian #SeaLion and #SouthernRightWhale. The #AustralianGovernment must stop the mindless release of exploration acreage at sea for fossil fuel expansion.

Is the Nullarbor "null and a bore"? No! But it's also not exactly action packed. You don't need to spend days on it We just hit the WA border after traveling the #Nullarbor in one day and checking out the #greataustralianbight. We've still got a few mostly empty hours of this section of WA to do but we're excited to be here. Next major stop: Esperance!
