The Albanese Government will finish this term with nothing to show for its 2022 election commitment to fix our broken nature laws.
Over and over, the Prime Minister has taken direction from the mining lobby, which has attacked powerful reforms so they can keep bulldozing, digging and destroying.
All eyes are turning to the election, and we can’t let a future government fail to act on the extinction crisis like the current one has.
Send a quick and sharp email to your candidates for the federal election with this key message:
I want strong nature laws that stop the bulldozers and protect wildlife, forests and reefs – and it’s an issue that will influence my vote.
Personalise your message with any of these talking points:
86% of Australians want strong laws to stop bulldozers tearing up threatened animals’ homes.
8 million hectares (the size of Tasmania) have been destroyed in the last 25 years – since the current broken laws were established.
The government's own reports say without urgent changes, most of Australia’s threatened plants, animals and ecosystems will become extinct.
We need an EPA to crack down on widespread illegal bulldozing of forests and woodlands.
Protecting the bush is wildly popular, and Parliament needs to side with the people, not polluters.
It's an urgent time to make our voices heard as candidates and parties are scrambling for votes – thanks for giving nature a voice!
