‘Apoplectic’ environment groups halt Coalition attack ads to take aim at Albanese over species’ ‘death warrant’ | Environment

The leading environmental organizations in Australia have suspended sudden advertising campaigns attacking The coalition plan to provide nuclear energy Instead, financing ads accusing Anthony Albaniz Signature of the “death note” for endangered species.

It has been agreed to shift from the coalition’s criticism to work on the threshold of an electoral campaign by the heads of green groups – including the Australian Conservation Corporation, Greenpeace, WWF Australia and the Climate Council – in what activists described as an emergency meeting on Saturday.

It reflects a widespread anger in the environmental movement about Albaniz’s plan to rush to legislation this week with the support of the coalition Protecting the salmon industry from a long -term legal challenge On its effect on endangered skiing.

One of the persons said at the meeting that the mood was “Jepletic” about what was seen as an enthusiastic governmental plan to weaken the National Environmental Law. They said that this followed the Prime Minister after he intervened to raise the commitment to establish a national agency to protect the environment in this period of Parliament.

The campaign is partially noticeable because most environmental organizations strongly prefer that the Labor Party return to the government, whether in a minority or a majority, to the Peter Dateon alliance that leads it. Also, many anti -nuclear weapons advertisements strongly support renewable energy policies in the Labor Party.

“The upcoming extinction of Australia is imminent and the signing of our Prime Minister on the death order. Not on our watch.” “Albaniz comes out everything for the extinction of species,” said the Greenpeace Australia Pacific ad.

There is a “brutal anger in society” about a change in the laws of nature to determine the priorities of industry on scientific concerns about skiing, which survived more than 60 million years. He said that the environmental advocacy groups agreed to the coordinated declaration approach “to ensure that the Prime Minister will realize the seriousness of the situation”, after the failure of the direct pressure.

“Like many other groups, Greenpeace re -focused the campaign effort immediately to ensure that the Australian public is aware of what the Prime Minister proposes and the impact that he will have – not only on MAUGEAN skiing, but an incredibly bad precedent is given a special treatment for a harmful industry and pollutants,” he said. “In our own advertisements, this issue has taken priority on invasive and medical policy, at the present time.”

Rieter said activists believed that it was not too late for Albaniz to change the path. He said: “The draft law should be delivered and a strong formation should be submitted to reform strong reforms in the Nature Law, and its independent agents to impose it, during the first 12 months of the government if it is re -elected this year.”

The leaders of the other conservation group told the government that the suspension of their anti -nuclear weapons advertisements was “open”. Some were reconsideration of where they were dedicated to resources during the campaign.

The government plans to modify environmental protection and biological diversity save (EPBC) behaves to end the official reconsideration by the Minister of Environment, Tania Bliberk, to whether it has been approved to expand fish cultivation in the port in 2012 properly. The industry and deputies have pressed in Tasmania and the liberal government of government for change.

Reconsted Causing In 2023, three organizations focused on the environment. The opinion of the Ministry of Environment, which was issued according to the laws of freedom of information, suggested that it could lead to the occurrence of salmon in the port during the preparation of an environmental impact statement.

Guardian Australia has learned that legislation would prevent requests for reviewing third parties in some cases in which developments were considered “controlled action” – and this means that they did not need a full federal environmental evaluation. It will be applied when the development was continuous or repeated, and it was underway for at least five years before submitting the application, and it was subject to control over the country or the region.

A government spokesman said on Sunday that the proposed change was “a very specific amendment to address defects” in the EPBC law.

“We will not stand and let workers lose their jobs due to a law breaking. Under the current law, the industry can be closed overnight when environmental evaluation begins. This is unacceptable to the government or society.

“We want to see the laws that provide better environmental protection and make decisions faster. We are still committed to that. We will consult on details in a second state with states, business groups and the environment.”

It was Maugean ski It is listed as threatened with extinction since 2004. Anxiety over its ordeal last year escalated when a government scientific committee said that the numbers in the wild were “very low”, and that the cultivation of fish in the port was the main cause of a significant reduction in dissolved oxygen levels and It must be limited or removed to preserve the species. It recommended that the species be considered endangered.

separate A report from the Institute of Maritime and Southern Police Studies Last month, investigative studies indicate that ski residents likely to have recovered to the 2014 levels after the last decade were disrupted. He stressed the need for continued monitoring.
