Wow.
NSW Forestry Corp has been caught inflating its logging numbers.
Just like the logging lobby has been inflating the cost of establishing the crucial Great Koala National Park.
Premier Minns - deliver the full Great Koala park. It's well overdue.

[Nature Conservation Council of NSW @naturensw]

It is past time for the Minns Government to stop the logging and fulfill their original promise to create a world class Great Koala National Park.

Yesterday rallies were held in Coffs Harbour and West Pennant Hills with this important message.

[Nature Conservation Council of NSW @naturensw]

We need to fix nature restoration laws to protect and restore our rivers and wetlands.

"Dr Bell-James said that's because the existing laws were created to protect nature from excessive harm, not to improve nature."

TAKE ACTION: Under the gov’s ‘No Meter, No Pump’ policy, pumps less than 100mm and 200mm don’t require metering.

Water pumped from many of our coastal catchments continues to go unchecked.
