Celebrating 35 years covering environmental issues

摘要

This year, Ecos celebrates 35 years of publication and 150 issues, making it one of the longest running environment and sustainability magazines in Australia. We take a retrospective look at the magazine through the eyes if its editors - and a subscriber who has been reading it for 34 of those 35 years. CSIRO first published Ecos in 1974, a time when the Whitlam Government was in power and issues such as environmentalism, Aboriginal land rights, workplace equality for women, the abolition of conscription, free tertiary education and multiculturalism made the transition from fringe to mainstream.
