Great Koala National Park 'dependent' on carbon offsets, but taxpayers will pay 95% of cost
"The NSW Government says the Great Koala National Park is “dependent” on money from carbon offsets. Media headlines suggests the offsets are “worth hundreds of millions of dollars”."
"...Over the long term, taxpayers will pay for 95% of the costs of the Great Koala National Park, while carbon offsets will pay for about 5%. Yet the public is told that it is the carbon offsets that are providing the “real money”, the park “depends” on the offsets."
"Native forests should be protected because of their ecological, environmental and social value. Not because polluters are prepared to throw in some small change." >>

🇦🇺 🐨 What is the Great Koala National Park?
It’s a plan to connect 175,000 hectares of publicly-owned state forests to existing National Parks, creating a 315,000 hectare nature reserve in the Coffs Coast Region and giving endangered species, like koalas, a safe place to live.

Ein Krokodil in der #WilhelmaStuttgart frisst #Plastik, das von Besuchern ins Gehege geworfen wurde. #Zoo-Direktor sagt: kein Problem.
Irgendwie hat er einen Punkt: die Welt ist voller Plastik ...Auch Wilhelma:
7 Koalas werden in der Terra Australis für 12 Mio € eingesperrt und mit Eukalyptus aus Florida gefüttert.
4 von ihnen sterben binnen eines Jahres.1. #Koalas sind Nahrungsspezialisten: ihr Magen ist auf eine bestimmte Umgebung optimiert. Warum weiß ein #FCKZOOs so etwas nicht? (1/3)

Creating diversified revenue streams out of 'The koala park' -
carbon credits and logging?
Nature as cash cow"A long-promised New South Wales great koala national park is set to go ahead after the Albanese government greenlit the state to receive hundreds of millions of dollars for protecting native forests previously earmarked for logging."
"...Polluting companies are allowed to buy an unlimited number of credits – also known as offsets – to count as their own cuts while continuing to pollute. Scientists have warned limiting the climate crisis requires rapid direct cuts in emissions and that carbon offsets should be used sparingly."
"NSW Greens MP Sue Higginson said the logging industry was unprofitable and the government should end it regardless of carbon credit revenue. “Reducing our forests in NSW to cash cows and offsets for climate polluters … sends a signal across the country that governments can disregard the intrinsic value of nature in favour of the latest get-out-of-jail-free card for climate polluters." >>

Lingering loopholes in the new national environment laws

"Environmentalists believe the EPBC Act has (Australia's Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation) allowed habitat to be gradually lost, with multiple projects approved within the same area. Habitat loss on the Redlands coast has contributed to an 80 per cent drop in koala numbers over the last 25 years." >>
