  • Ecology of Pyrmont Peninsula 1788 - 2008
    Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there.

  • Cities and Protected Areas PARKS Magazine 11.3
    Editorial JEFFREY A. MCNEELY Cities and protected areas: an oxymoron or a partnership? That the world is becoming increasingly urbanised is scarcely news. Today, half the world’s population lives in cities. It is, nonetheless, worth considering present and possible future trends, especially their implications for protected areas. For most of human history, the vast majority of people lived in sparsely-settled rural areas, often quite isolated and even at war with neighbouring populations. Under such conditions, conserving biodiversity through protected areas was hardly an issue. But as people started moving to cities, as part of an inexorable economic process of globalisation, human populations began to expand and protected areas became necessary. Urbanisation has led to the concentration of political power in cities, which has in turn tended to foster policies favouring urban over rural areas. Various forms of subsidies make food and other basic goods cheaper in the city, discourage agricultural investment, and attract rural people into urban areas. Most developing country governments have encouraged the growth of their large cities as a means of linking their domestic economy with the rest of the globe. Thus for many countries, the capital city controls the trade between urban areas and both rural and international markets, so cities like Manila, Sao Paolo and Bangkok may have more in common with Tokyo, London and Washington than with their rural hinterlands. What does all of this mean for protected areas? The urban environment includes a great diversity of habitats and many cities support abundant wildlife. In some cases these habitats play a significant role in the conservation of rare species, and the modern urban planning ethic is placing more emphasis on the maintenance of biodiversity in the urban environment.
