National Park privatisation by stealth?
Luxury lodges and raised boardwalks developments?"The primary purpose of national parks is to conserve nature and cultural heritage. A secondary purpose is for people to engage with and enjoy nature...Tourism development in protected areas, however, needs a social license and local community engagement is an important sustainability principle...National parks belong to everyone and their management must reflect this. While tourism developments can offer benefits, they must not come at the cost of accessibility, affordability, or most importantly, environmental integrity."

"The inherited pro-extinction settings remain – bugger the country."
"If the majority of the community – by definition, the political centre – is resolutely against the destruction of the natural world, why is our political and regulatory system stuck on the “kill” setting?"
" We have the ignominious distinction of having among the highest rates of deforestation and species extinction in the world. Even the koala is listed as endangered in Queensland, New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory."

Documentation of the systematic destruction of Tuckers Nob forests
"Presentation for Friends of Tuckers Nob on the history and significance of Tuckers Nob State Forest and why it must be included in the NSW Government's proposed 'Great' Koala National Park. Based on a recent preliminary report submitted to government, showing the original forest and koala sightings, with a list of moratorium areas (including Tuckers). All the most recent developments, bringing the viewer up to date. This is why we need a #GreaterKoalaPark, with no logging."
The video has a link to the report containing the results (maps) of the investigations by Dr Tim Cadman and local community-based citizen scientists:

Forestry Corporation NSW logs 1.44 hectares within Bindarri National Park
"Bindarri National Park is home to birds, wallabies, possums, quolls, koalas, platypus, owls and bats. It lies next to Orara West State Forest, which Forestry Corporation manages and it claims the error was made because a timber plantation that sits on the border was rezoned and split between the two parks in 1999."
A "penalty will likely further hit the beleaguered state-owned company’s bottom line – on Friday, it revealed its native forestry business has lost $29 million over a single year. It said a key reason for its woes was legal action and protests against its operations. Although Victoria and Western Australia have shut down their state-owned logging companies, the Minns government has backed Forestry Corporation, which controversially logs endangered koala and greater glider habitat."

Electric vehicles, rare earth mining and consent
"The increasing global demand for rare earth elements (REE) is driven by clean energy technologies. The electric vehicle in particular, is a strong driving force. The un-ceded sovereign lands of hundreds of First Nations – now colonised and called Australia – hold at least four per cent of the world’s rare earth element reserves."
"There are no strategies in Australia’s critical minerals landscape to support First Nations negotiations. The UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP) requires that free, prior and informed consent is a minimum standard to be applied in all negotiations, including those with First Nations regarding rare earths exploitation."
"Rare earth mining will devastate and change the land forever."
