📢Hi all, welcome to this new initiative from @SCBOceania seeking to raise awareness and stimulate activity in the environmental policy space in Australia.

An important opportunity to comment on the proposed 'Biodiversity Market' scheme from the Commonwealth Government.

The mechanics and potential benefits of the scheme are very unclear.

[Martine Maron @martine_maron]

Such an important thread Annica. Thank you for your courage, and also thanks to the many who struggle within the system to change what they can.
