Trent joined Bertha the giant cow down at the Fairfield Boathouse today to lend his support to Environment Victoria’s ‘Cut the Crap‘ campaign to get livestock – and their poo and trampling hooves – out of our rivers.

“As the only electorate in Victoria bounded on three sides by waterways, it’s fitting that Bertha has come to Northcote to raise awareness about the damage cows are doing to Victoria’s rivers and river banks.” Trent said.

“And as the only party talking about the environment at this election, I’m delighted to join Bertha to call for our river banks – which are publicly owned Crown Land – to be managed responsibly in the interests of all Victorians.” Trent said.

Bertha the giant cow has been all over Victoria in recent weeks, appearing in the most inappropriate of places, to highlight how inappropriate it is that cows are still permitted to trample and pollute our waterways and clean water.
