Meet Dani, bayside shop owner and cyclist
We don’t often think about how much impact our local environment might have on business. But scratch the surface and you discover our economy is much stronger because of it. Dani, who runs Le Knicks Cycling Outfitters in Black Rock has worked all over Melbourne and tells us there is something different about bayside. ‘I really believe the bay does contribute to how happy people are in this suburb’, says Dani. How we ‘feel’ is the key to unlocking nature-based solutions, to restore and enhance our economic resilience. This translates into better health and environment. It’s all connected.
Why are Dani’s values important?
All of our personal values depend on specific ecosystem features. And these values have a huge impact on our lives, and therefore our economy. Yet they’ve never been measured.
As we gather more information about the ways our values individually connect with the Bay’s landscapes, we will quickly work out where the greatest pathways lie. This will enable our community to identify where those values are most important, the threats to those values, and what we can do about it.
How do you connect with the Bay? We invite you to join one of our workshops to share your insights.
