Seems big media think Peter Garrett is going to be dogging it. We added this comment to First Dog cartoon today which got the 'under moderation treatment' so far:
Serve that dog some hot dinner.
Meanwhile those of us who like critters might want to consider this remaining to do list for Mr Garrett.
- Mitigating the $43 Billion (that a real billion not a Joyce billion) Gorgon development, class 1 nature reserve at Barrow Island etc
- Ancient rock art in the Kimberley - everywhere in a resources hot spot
- Whaling v Japanese earth rapists
- Old Growth forests in Tas, NSW, Vic under the EPBC Act
- $2B Tas pulp mill wheels falling off in a state election, while GMO plantation estate of Euc. Nitans appear be naturally toxic to waterways (Australian Story).
- Arnhem Land Aboriginal employment programme over 1 M hectares
- Cape York World Heritage negotiations with the Pearsons in a preface to Barak Obama meeting local Black jurists like … said Pearson shouter (?)
- Tillegra Dam/Kooragang Island wetlands decision, worth $500M to $1B cost to the NSW Govt
… and probably lots of other stuff I have no clue about.
But apparently this is less important than insulation according to the latte set in the big media.
