Australia’s nature laws are silent on the urgent threats of climate damage and extreme weather to Australian wildlife and places.
Climate doesn't rate a mention in over 1000 pages of law – allowing decision makers to ignore climate harm to nature, and approve or wave through 740 coal or gas mines in just two decades.
The Albanese Government must step up to fix this huge gap harming nature.
With climate damage driving the Great Barrier Reef to bleach and die and fuelling fires and floods decimating the last refuges of endangered animals – we must speak up now to get the Albanese Government to protect nature from climate harm!
Use these points to write a quick and impactful message to the Prime Minister. Being polite and having a clear ask helps get your message across.
New laws must reject proposals that harm nature through their contribution to climate damage, including new gas wells, coal mine extensions and major land clearings.
Crucial threatened species habitat vulnerable to climate extremes must be fully protected under ‘no-go zones’ for new projects, with planning to mitigate and adapt to climate risks.
Let’s protect the ecosystems that absorb climate pollution, including by ending native forest logging.
The new environmental regulator must have full powers to investigate all matters controlled under nature laws including carbon polluting and emissions reporting.
Laws must be capable of responding to climate change impacts, like emergency uplistings of threatened species when significant habitat is impacted by climate-fuelled fires and floods.
We need clear outcomes for nature’s protection against climate destruction enshrined in strong National Standards.
Sheria za asili za Australia hazijataja vitisho vya dharura vya uharibifu wa hali ya hewa na hali ya hewa kali kwa wanyama wa porini na maeneo ya Australia. "Mapendekezo hayo yanaonekana kuwa ""yenye nguvu"" na yanawawezesha watunga maamuzi kupuuza madhara ya hali ya hewa kwa asili na kuidhinisha au kuondoa migodi ya makaa ya mawe au gesi 740 katika miongo miwili tu." Serikali ya Albania lazima ifanye hatua ya kurekebisha pengo hili kubwa linaloharibu asili. Pamoja na uharibifu wa hali ya hewa kuendesha Barrier Reef Kubwa bleach na kufa na kuchochea moto na mafuriko decimating hifadhi ya mwisho ya wanyama hatarini <unk> lazima kusema juu sasa kupata Serikali ya Albania kulinda asili kutoka uharibifu wa hali ya hewa! Tumia pointi hizi kuandika ujumbe wa haraka na wenye athari kwa Waziri Mkuu. Kuwa mwenye adabu na kuwa na swali wazi husaidia kuwasiliana na mtu. Sheria mpya lazima zikataa mapendekezo ambayo yanaharibu asili kupitia mchango wao kwa uharibifu wa hali ya hewa, pamoja na visima vipya vya gesi, upanuzi wa mgodi wa makaa ya mawe na uondoaji mkubwa wa ardhi. "Habitat muhimu ya spishi zilizo hatarini ambazo zinaathiriwa na hali ya hewa kali lazima zilindwe kikamilifu chini ya ""maeneo ya kutokuwa na kwenda"" kwa miradi mpya, na mipango ya kupunguza na kukabiliana na hatari za hali ya hewa." Hebu kulinda mifumo ya ikolojia ambayo huchukua uchafuzi wa hali ya hewa, ikiwa ni pamoja na kwa kumaliza ukataji miti ya asili. "Msimamizi mpya wa mazingira lazima awe na mamlaka kamili ya kuchunguza mambo yote yanayodhibitiwa chini ya sheria za asili, pamoja na uchafuzi wa kaboni na ripoti za uzalishaji. """ Sheria lazima ziwe na uwezo wa kukabiliana na athari za mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa, kama vile orodha ya dharura ya spishi zilizo hatarini wakati makazi muhimu yanaathiriwa na moto na mafuriko yanayotokana na hali ya hewa. Tunahitaji matokeo ya wazi kwa ajili ya ulinzi wa asili dhidi ya uharibifu wa hali ya hewa uliowekwa katika Viwango vya Kitaifa vyenye nguvu.
