Kim Peart ~ running in Prosser
Kim PEART for PROSSER your independent voice
Prosser is a newly created seat of the Legislative Council, including Campbell Town to Brighton and Sorell, but not Richmond, and runs from Bicheno to Port Arthur. As the member for Prosser I will fight for your interests. The housing crisis putting workers in tents in Hobart, is also hitting country towns, and I have proposed a working solution to fix the housing crisis: end homelessness by providing homes.
I will also be fighting for a new approach to tourism, to connect country towns with a walking and cycle trail, which will see a mini coach service evolve, connecting country towns to the cities. I love Tasmania’s amazing history and environment, the heart of our tourism. I have read widely on what is happening with climate change, and explore ways to prepare for a changing and dangerous future.
I was at the launch of the Australian Space Agency in Adelaide last year, and hunt for ways to connect Tasmania to the global space industry for work, careers and new enterprise. We have an exciting future in Tasmania, if we dare to imagine. Will you join me in this adventure, by voting me into Prosser? Ask for links to my articles. Tell me of your concerns. I look at problems, and expect to see working solutions. ~ [email protected] ~ Authorised by: J Bolton, 39A Bridge St, Ross
I can’t reach every voter in Prosser, so if you like what you read, please share this post card around.
See my article in the Tasmanian Times, for hands on action to fix the housing crisis in Tasmania, by ending homelessness ~

Should the voters in Prosser run with my run, and vote me in, I would hope to be part of a Tasmanian delegation to Bremen in Germany in October, for the next International Astronautical Congress, seeking to help connect Tasmania to the global space industry.
The story of Fleet Space working with the University of Tasmania on a farm near Hamilton, truly reveals how vital space is to Tasmania. ~ Link to story below.
On that trip I would hope to visit Finland, and find out exactly how they solved homelessness.
We should be competing with the Finns, to be the happiest people on Earth.
From the grass roots to the stars, we can make Tasmania even more amazing.
If we decide to act, we can end homelessness, fixing the housing crisis.
If we dare to imagine, we can hitch a ride with the stars.

WHAT COULD HAPPEN WITH SPACE IN TASMANIA?
ONE ~ A number of space centres could be developed around the island where anyone could find out what is happening in space exploration and development, what careers can be forged with space, what enterprises can be created with space, and what the future holds with space for Tasmania.
TWO ~ The space centre approach can also be set up with an inexpensive virtual world project, where anyone in Tasmania could discover what is happening with space, what is possible in the near future, work with robots in a virtual environment, and access space experiences in the virtual world. In the virtual worlds, like Second Life, participants create the contents. No older person need be on their own ever again, unless they choose to be, when they can engage in a virtual world.
THREE ~ Hold regular space forums and invite the global space industry to Tasmania, to show what is possible on this island.
FOUR ~ Begin a Tasmanian space directory, to include all institutions and businesses in Tasmania who connect to the global space industry in any way.
STEM or STEAM ~ With space we may settle the debate over STEM or STEAM. The virtual worlds are built on art, and if they become a vital tool in low-cost space development in Tasmania, then for us, it will be STEAM. As with the Renaissance, art was as vital as engineering and anatomy in discovering the new world, that we now live in. Engagement in space will inspire students to rise to and excel in all the STEAM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths).
ABOUT Kim Peart ~ Born in 1952, Kim was raised in Howrah when it was farmland, played in the old fort in Bellerive, and rode the old ferries to Hobart to go to movies. Kim plied the life of a visual artist, with a studio in the Salamanca Arts Centre, and then in Murdunna, and later in Bellerive in the old bakery. In 2007 Kim was listed among Tasmania’s top 200 movers and shakers for “An urban bushland conservationist who has worked tirelessly over the years to maintain walking tracks and protect wildlife from the encroachment of bush-front housing developments.” Kim is campaigning for an Australian Convict Trail, with the Tasmanian leg running from the ferry in Devonport to Port Arthur, along with foot and cycle paths by Tasmania’s highways and roads. After being at the launch of an Australian Space Agency last September, Kim is seeking ways to create employment, careers and new enterprise in Tasmania with the global space industry. Kim now lives in Ross, with his wife Jennifer, and a small tribe of alpacas.
