Great article @megcevans: "Businesses and governments hold disproportionate power that can be used to either delay or accelerate transformative change."

Great write up on the big ticket environment issues for 2021 @adamlmorton and @_LisaMCox. Lots of work, opportunities and (as always), many threats on the horizon.

Surely it's well and truly time to end native forest logging and transition to sustainable jobs in Aussie forests. We lost too much habitat in the fires, save what's left.

Any system that would even consider bulldozing old growth habitat for endangered species is FLAWED.
From me - Cape York station owner refused to accept land-clearing would affect threatened species theguardian.com/environment/…
Old-growth and important forest, like that on Kingvale Station, should be protected for good and never considered for bulldozing. Hoping this decision signals a new era of federal ministers addressing Australia’s globally significant deforestation crisis?

Aus is a global deforestation hotspot along with places like the Amazon. Qld takes the trophy for bulldozing more forest and bushland than any other state. Qld election coming up. @AnnastaciaMP & @DebFrecklington - our next state leader must address with strong deforestation laws
Australia is one of the land clearing capitals of the developed world.
Our environment reporter @nkilvert broke down the "tree budget" across every state and territory.
How does your state compare? 🌲🪓📈

wilderness.good.do/2020qldel… Sign the @Wilderness_Aus pledge calling on the next Qld State Government to end deforestation with strong laws.
Deforestation kills wildlife and makes climate change worse - whether it's legal or illegal at the time. Companies shouldn't be allowed to bulldoze forests for their products. Luckily 21 other food firms including McDonalds agree with this statement.

Tune into the final episode of #FightForPlanetA tonight then check out wilderness.org.au/deforestat… for more info on deforestation in Aus.
Last Ep of #FightForPlanetA tonight. Was shocked by how much we land clear in Australia and how big a part of our emissions it was. Dwarfs our flights but not talked about as much.

The central component of Aus climate policy, the ERF, is a joke. @Wilderness_Aus found #deforestation on properties that were also receiving taxpayer money for carbon projects. #ClimateSolutionsFund #zerocredibility #auspoll smh.com.au/environment/clima…
