My grandpa was part of CSIRO mostly around researching waterways and their effect on ecosystems and stuff in what must have been the 50s-90s. A rode scholar and beautiful person. Intelligent and compassionate. I’ve always been proud of Australia’s CSIRO. In the last twenty years I’m glad he’s not here to see what they’ve done to it.
It was for a while part of our Australian identity. We were engineers and scientists who make rational well informed decisions with often limited resources and an abundance of ingenuity.
That part of the Australian pride I had seems lost to time.
