Small Hands, Big Futures: Why I’m Taking on the WWF March Challenge

Sunday 1st Mar
This week’s nature walk had a few extra team members: M7 and A5, a grabber, a very optimistic mini fox terrier, and my mum as moral support.
What started as a simple neighbourhood walk turned into something much bigger.
We moved through the streets collecting litter and ended at the local park — the same park where I spent my teenage years, now reimagined through the eyes of two little girls who were genuinely excited to clean it up. Along the way we talked about why this matters. Not in abstract climate terms, but in stories they could hold.
I told M about the koalas.
Her first birthday fell in the shadow of the 2019 bushfires. That year, in her honour, I purchased trees in Queensland that now house koalas. Being able to tell her that she already has a connection to protecting wildlife lit something in her. Suddenly, picking up rubbish wasn’t a chore — it was helping “her” koalas.
For A5, the mission was the stormwater drains. We talked about how the plastic and wrappers on the street do not just disappear — they travel through the drainage system into the Georges River and into the homes of fish, birds and other animals. Watching her carefully collect pieces that were “going to the river” was a masterclass in how quickly care grows when understanding is there.
These two girls are my why.
Not just for them, but for the many small hands and open hearts I am lucky enough to be part of. This challenge is about the world they will inherit and the one we are shaping in real time.
And the reality on the ground is confronting.
Within the first 40 minutes, the bag was full. Not because we covered a huge distance, but because there was that much to collect. Bulk rubbish had been dumped in the middle of a children’s park. In an affluent suburb. In a space meant for families.
It is easy to talk about global environmental outcomes. It is harder — and more important — to look at the condition of our own local spaces.
There is also a narrative about Western Sydney that I want to challenge. The idea that communities here are not house-proud or do not care for their environment does not reflect the people I know. We are a community made up of many cultures, and one value that cuts across all of them is respect for shared spaces.
We all come from places where clean, welcoming environments matter.
So seeing a park — a place for children — treated this way is not just an environmental issue. It is a community one.
The good news is that change is incredibly tangible.
Three people, two kids, one dog and a grabber filled a bag in under an hour. Imagine the impact if this became a normal weekend activity for more of us. Imagine the message it sends to the next generation when they see adults taking responsibility for shared spaces.
Whether someone believes in climate change or not, one thing is undeniable: the world needs a helping hand.
This is mine.
And if two small girls can see themselves as protectors of koalas, rivers and parks, then the future is not something to be anxious about — it is something to actively build

Rainy start

Sunday 1st Mar
Hello March! First day of autumn starts with rain and I am a bit nervous to walk around with garbage bag collecting rubbish. Why are we so worried about public perception? I know if I saw someone doing this Id be filled with admiration. In fact this initiative was inspired by a stranger I used to see regularly during my commute. He was an elderly man walking a jack Russell with his bag of rubbish and a grabber. He was always a great start of the day - someone who loves animal and nature.  Just like me ❤️
