Rodential Area
Despite its name, Lower Light is not a dimmer switch, but a farming community along the Port Wakefield Road in SA, some 100kms northwest of Adelaide.
The nearest town is Dublin where a toxic dump was proposed by state government back in 2003, though not if Steve Jones has his way.
A Lower Light farmer, Jones spent weeks erecting several man-sized rats along the highway. Each mimics an evil bureaucrat with collar and tie. If provoking curiosity equates to stopping a dump, then Jones has won.
No doubt the elements have ravaged the rats, yet some may still stand. Have you spotted a pin-striped vermin down Wakefield way? Do you know of any other creative protests visible to the Australian nomad? Rat on an activist today!
