- Summary:
-
"From koalas to the great river red gum, Australia is home to some of the most remarkable plants, animals and ecosystems on our planet. Sadly, widespread climate damage is already evident. Escalating climate change is harming our environment in many ways; and poses an unprecedented threat to the Australian plants, animals and places that our national environment law was set up to protect. Our national environment law, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, is failing. It has a massive blindspot when it comes to climate change, which is leading to perverse outcomes. As the most significant threat to our environment, limate change needs to be embedded throughout an updated law that specifically shields our precious biodiversity and nature from its impacts."--Publisher.
