Di (they-them) is there an independent RS that describes Green as a conservationist? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:03, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AirshipJungleman29 The ABC article source says that Mr Green has been widely recognised for his two decades of conservation work, including by Natural Resources Kangaroo Island. The award from the South Australian government, which can be seen at 28 seconds into the ABC video source, describes him as a dedicated, hands-on environmentalist. So, while the word "conservationist" isn't necessarily used, I think these essentially say the exact same thing. If that's an issue, I'd be fine with tweaking the hook to say "an Australian environmentalist" instead. Di (they-them) (talk) 21:22, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
