25.01.2022 Four years ago, Janet Rice pointed out the obvious. Last week Professor Graeme Samuel said exactly the same thing in his final report from his review of the EPBC Act.

16.01.2022 The Morrison government has had this warning for three months. How much longer will we have to wait for a serious response?

13.01.2022 STRONGER COMMUNITIES GRANTS NOW OPEN The #MightyEdenMonaro has a strong and dynamic culture of community spirit and service which is why I am pleased the... ‘Stronger Communities Grants’ are back in 2021. Grants of between $2,500 and $20,000 are available for small capital works projects and some types of equipment. Funding is available for up to 100 percent of your project costs. Eligible projects must bring social benefit to our community. In the past, these grants and volunteers on the ground have been responsible for everything from new playgrounds, to surf lifesaving equipment, to refurbished kitchens in community centres and studio upgrades for community radio. I can’t wait to see what will be achieved in 2021. You’ll find more info here - https://www.kristymcbain.com.au//stronger-communities-pro/

03.01.2022 Gutless Morrison won’t adopt Samuel forest recommendation - Bob Brown The finding of Graham Samuels that native forests logging should have its exemption from... the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act rescinded adds power to the Bob Brown Foundation’s current challenge to this arrangement in the Federal Court of Australia. Any six year old would tell us that flattening and incinerating Australia’s forests and their wildlife is a natural calamity, Bob Brown said today. However every national and state minister for the environment since the year 2000 has not only gone along with it but has obstructed environmentalists trying to rectify this disastrous Howardian fix. These have been two decades of environmental disgrace. This deliberate exclusion of forests from enforceable national environmental care will go down in history as a bloody-minded trashing of a national treasure by John Howard, largely to feed taxpayer-subsidised woodchips to the northern hemisphere. The Bob Brown Foundation’s challenge to the forest exemption was heard by the full bench of the Federal Court last December 3. Judgement is expected to be handed down within weeks. The Morrison government won’t accept the Samuel recommendation. There is little evidence that the current prime minister has an environmental bone in his body. He doesn’t have the guts to go to the forests and see for himself the national disaster of Howard’s exemption of logging from the EPBC Act. There are two peaceful forest blockades to stem the destruction in Tasmania at present. These are Australians doing Morrison’s job for him, Brown said. Photographs Blockade in Tasmania’s takayna/Tarkine on now. Blockade in Tasmania’s Wentworth Hills on now. Old growth eucalyptus logged in Wentworth Hills in the past month.

01.01.2022 The Government's own report into their environmental laws show that native forest logging MUST end for good. Join the campaign to end it here- we'll send you some stickers and a petition - together we can do this!! https://davidshoebridge.nationbuilder.com/stickers
