The former New South Wales premier Bob Carr has warned the environment movement is “In danger of fading” in the face of massive challenges protecting habitats from population pressures and climate change.
“I think there’s a danger in recent years of the environment movement fading,” Carr said.
Carr said he believed the best results for the environment were achieved when dedicated voluntary conservationists worked with “Sympathetic Labor governments”.
Carr said he was very confident the premier, Chris Minns, and the environment minister, Penny Sharpe, would work together with the environment movement and farmers on the issue.
A review of the state’s Biodiversity Conservation Act, led by Dr Ken Henry, found the laws were failing to protect the environment and that clearing of vegetation and intensifying land use had led to the destruction of habitat across the state.
They know what it is, but they’re too busy on the app betting about how fucked up it can get. You Aussies love those dumb apps. OK, I’m kidding, I actually think they’re too scared to protest because climate protesters are being vilified, harassed and jailed as criminals. Can’t disrupt the narrative - The beers won’t drink themselves! Won’t be long before Australia has something like Belgium’s pre-crime detention. Naughty Aussies will be rounded up and detained before they go and protest an event, and no one will give a fuck while the pubs open or Gogglebox is on. Once everyone is forced to get the Digital ID with facial recognition no one will be game to protest because they will freeze your bank accounts. And you won’t be able to transact financially because cash money is nearly dead in Australia. Last time I was there everyone did everything on their corporate tracking and advertising device (phone). You guys are so screwed and you don’t even know it. Your government does a tremendous job of projecting the illusion of freedom while you actually have none. Fuck me, your last Prime Minister gave himself four extra ministerial positions without consulting anyone, which breaks your federal laws, and no one did anything! You guys need an ICAC before anything can be remedied. Only vote for candidates willing to implement a robust ICAC.
