About this listen

Protecting the Reef isn’t just about science. It’s about people, passion, and persistence. The fight to save the Reef started with everyday Australians who cared enough to act, and 50 years later, that same spirit is just as important. The Reef’s story is our story, and it’s still being written.

We're diving into a truly special episode, marking 50 years since the establishment of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act, a milestone in environmental protection that helped shape how we care for this natural wonder. To help us explore the deep history and human story behind one of Australia’s greatest environmental achievements, we're joined by Dr Rohan Lloyd, historian and author of Saving the Reef.

From protest movements to policy breakthroughs, Rohan brings the past to life and helps us understand how far we've come in protecting the Reef.
