This week in their weekly catch up, James and Brooke talk about EV's and siginificant natural areas.

Recent the governement has announced a discount on EV's, as well as a new fees on non-electric cars. ACT has opposed this move, due to the impact it will have on farmers and large families.

James and Brooke then talk about siginificant natural areas, which will potentially face changes as councils are currently able to take siginigcant natural areas for conservation purposes. ACT has raised concerns over the power which is given to council to take land.
