'Outback Rode RAGE' is taking place between 23rd November and 9th December, with the main aims to:

• Raise awareness of everyday solutions to reducing greenhouse emissions available to everyday people.
• Raise funds for sustainable energy and food programs to assist our global neighbours who do not have the same opportunities that we do
• To draw the links between climate change and extreme poverty.

Above: STIR Editor, Nige, met up with the team at their launch in early November.

During their journey, the students will visit as many communities as possible to provide information about options that are easily available to ordinary people, groups and communities to reduce their greenhouse emissions.

The excitable crew from Ballarat did a similar event last year, riding from Sydney to Melbourne in under 24 hours. Read more about that here.

Funds raised by the Road RAGE will be donated to World Vision and will support our work against climate change through projects such as One Earth. 

They are also supporting the Alternative Technology Association
