Governments approve environmental destruction
It’s been no secret that the health of Australia’s environment is poor and has deteriorated due to deliberate habitat loss, invasive species, pollution and mining, Now t he Government’s State of the environment report – compiledby scientists reveal s the extent of abrupt changes in some ecosystems over the past five years, with at least 19 now showing signs of collapse. The report fconfirmed that past Governments have not properly funded environmental issues. Local, State and Federal Governments have collectively failed to implement effective measures. They approved the destruction of native vegetation and wildlife habitat while wasting money on meaningless photo-opportunities. Currently, Bass Coast Shire has approved the destruction of hundreds of hectares of native vegetation.
