'The beach is coming closer': How coastal communities are dealing with the reality of sea level rise
(The tone of this article is passive - as if sea level rise & the climate damage that is driving it are beyond our control. Why @abcnews? #auspol) abc.net.au/news/2020-07-26/c…
A developer in conjunction with @delwp seeks to make a virtue out of the slaughter of a population of kangaroos 🦘 who have had the misfortune of being hemmed in by “development”. What horrors await the #Anglesea community and our local wildlife @DanielAndrewsMP? 🤔 #SaveAnglesea

Amazing how many projects claim environmental credentials but then promote commercialization and development. The conflict of interest is staggering!@surfcoastnotes

Minister, your own dept @DELWP_Vic has withheld community consultations that proved there was no support for the Anglesea Futures Land Use Plan and you haven’t called them out. You can’t have it both ways @SaveAnglesea @surfcoastnotes @MarianSmedley @LisanevilleMP @rwynnemp
You're responsible for 9,000 square km of bushfire-prone land. So where do you put the planned burn
(Responsible decision makers would also seek to avoid unnecessary developments in the line of fire @surfcoastnotes and @rwynnemp #springst) abc.net.au/news/2020-06-14/h…

Let's stop pretending this form of #growth can be managed in a sort of win-win for vested interests, ecosystems & societies.
"Growth" as currently defined, is about short term greed, nothing more. People/ecosystems are dispensable in the bigger game.
Time we all realised this!

So much truth in this piece! Our natural environments and coastal communities are suffering under these impacts – at Aireys Inlet - Fairhaven, Victoria

Eden Project expects good news in new year
(Let’s hope the New Year brings a renewed sense of commitment from @edenproject, @Alcoa & government to listen to the community & to involve it in every step of the decision making process @timpallas #springst)

A picture tells a thousand words. As someone noted at a recent community meeting, “we already live in Eden, why do we need another one?”

NIMBY definition:
"To want what's best for your #family, #community & #country. Once considered admirable traits, now rebranded (by the development lobby) as being somehow selfish".
Have I got this about right?
Maybe Local & State Government could invest in a few of these signs to help educate the irresponsible trail bike riders & four wheel drivers who leave rubbish behind & often damage the fragile Anglesea Heath as well? @surfcoastnotes @crrosehodge @LilyDAmbrosioMP @ParksVictoria
