Mighty Fitzroy’s Future – A Warning
The Fitzroy River in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia is a National Heritage listed biodiversity hotspot.

In this three-part series, centred around the second Ministerial meeting into the future of the Fitzroy River, Dylan Storer explores different issues, points of view and opinions surrounding the future of The Mighty Fitzroy.
