Rosemarie de Vries (Independent)

Western Australia is world-recognised for its extraordinary natural environment and range of globally important biodiversity hotspots. Unfortunately it is also one of the parts of the world that will be most affected by climate change*.  The impact of a warmer and drier climate is already visible in our suburbs in the large number of dead and dying trees. It is also evident on our farmlands and land and marine nature reserves.

Despite knowing the risks for decades, successive WA Liberal and Labor State Governments have not properly protected our environment or prepared for the future impacts of climate change.  WA is the only state in Australia where total emissions have been actually rising since 2005, with emissions currently 20 per cent above the 2005 baseline**. And WA has some of the most regressive environmental policy settings in the country: we do not have a 2030 emissions reduction target OR a renewable energy target.

I believe that we can and must do better.  I support initiatives that will increase use of renewables, create a better balance between the economy and the environment, and allow us to harness the economic opportunities that come from the energy transition.

I also support initiatives that will mitigate the threats that come from climate change, for example innovations in farming practices, improved bushfire resilience, better flood control measures, and ways to reduce the loss of foreshores or inundation of land.

Viv Glance (Greens)

I’m proud to be your Greens candidate for Nedlands in the upcoming state election.

Growing up in public housing, I learned the value of community, collaboration, and a strong welfare system. Studying botany at university deepened my love for ecology, but my real-world education came from standing up for workers’ rights in Thatcher’s Britain, and refusing to take a job away from workers on strike.

My career has been as varied as my passions, from computer programming and community organising to producing and performing in theatre around the world. I’ve sat on boards and management committees for creative industry groups and volunteered for not-for-profit organisations seeking to create a better future. Along the way, I’ve seen how deeply political decisions shape people’s lives, especially after moving to Australia with my family.

Since joining the Greens in 2014, I’ve served on National Council and as International Secretary, working to create a system that prioritises people and the planet.

Here in Nedlands, we face real challenges: rental stress, lack of community consultation on property developments, and the urgent need for climate resilience.

We’re stuck in a political system that refuses to act. The Greens are powered by people, not corporations, and we’re here to lead the change our community needs. 

Together, we can tackle the climate crisis, make housing affordable, and create a future that works for all of us. Join me in creating this change for Nedlands.

See you out there!
