Well, humans will find out soon how stupid it is to ignore the warnings of climate change.

Yes, I think labor has misread the room on this. Australians are interested in sustainable and healthy agricultural development - not at the expense of ecosystems.

Who does the ALP government represent? It's clearly not the interests of Australian citizens with this decision.
At the upcoming election, take care to vote for representatives that work for a better future for Australians and the protection of the environment that sustains us.

I hope the politicians who passed it get to eat rotten fish and drink polluted water. They deserve it.

I hope that at the ballot box, people will show their disapproval.

Don't forget it only passed because the LNP also voted for it, and we know if the LNP get into Government they will gut environment laws even further, how do we know? Because the LNP have already told us they will, VOTE INDEPENDENT

Damn! Despite my letters to my representatives. But, hey, they don't listen to us, do they?

You all have bigots running your country as well?

trishagreenie.bsky.social•6 days ago

Yes, our two major parties are basically the same party.

nickmas.bsky.social•6 days ago

That's not good. You all going to do anything about that?

trishagreenie.bsky.social•6 days ago

I try every election by not voting for either of these parties. Unfortunately too many others vote one or the other. Last election we were very close to having a minority govt though which with Greens in balance of power would have been just what we need. Hoping for one better this year.

Absolutely the most disappointing prime minister we have ever had. Really thought he would step up on, well, lots of things, this amendment is devastating to the environment and just another reason to despair of this government. The hope we all had when Labor won has been dashed. Where to next?

The ALP are an absolute disgrace. The LNP will always be at the bottom of my vote form but the ALP will only be one step above.

Absolutely! 😡
Plibersek sold out

They are such a big disappointment 😞

@albomp.bsky.social and @australianlabor.bsky.social sacrificing the future of all Australians just so they don`t get wedged by the LNP before the election.

The electorate looked from LNP to Labor, and from Labor to LNP, and from LNP to Labor again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

I will never eat Tasmanian salmon again. There's two reasons to boycott, environmentally and for animal cruelty.

mskatfitx.bsky.social•6 days ago

I hope everyone who cares about the environment will boycott and do them right out of business. 🤞

ko-walla.bsky.social•6 days ago

And the salmon industry have been selling diseased fish.

Help Peter George's campaign for Franklin. Vote them out.
