@AlboMP The Australian Prime Minister was hounded out of a mosque and almost lynched by a mob of screaming jihadists shouting “ALLAHU AKBAR” less than 24 hours ago … and he’s already back to “Diversity is our strength” posting
Fantastic morning, gathering today at Picton. Transport was an important topic. Picton Bypass & the Dam Wall. There was also a question about Thirlmere Lakes, possible extension & accessibility. See you at Mittagong 22 Jan, at 11am. Lake Alexandra Park.
Back to the future.
The idea that we must sacrifice Nature for economic growth is a frame that I thought we’d got past.
Seems not.
Rather than writing it again, here’s a piece I did back in 2013.
Just as true now, but sadly still needing to repeat

@Julie28086389 @_LisaMCox@AmyRemeikis@GuardianAus Simply false. They are routinely bred in capitivity, just as ALL the birds exported were bred in captivity.
When I worked with Senator Robert Hill and many others to introduce the EPBC Act in the late 1990s we all thought it would put an end to Australian threatened species losing their habitat. We were wrong and this paper proves it conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
@sarahinthesen8 No wild birds, these are all captive bred by Australian aviculturists and very few of their wild cousins are threatened species. ACTP is doing magnificent work internationally to save numerous parrot species. Get a grip @sarahinthesen8 - go after illegal smugglers.
@_LisaMCox Be aware that all these birds were bred in captivity, every one of them. @_LisaMCox Why not work on exposing smugglers? And why the obsession with ACTP? And why do your articles ignore the obvious undeniable conservation efforts of ACTP with a range of threatened parrot species?
@neophema1 Best you read the article @neophema1 - the headline is just clickbait - ACTP have done everything well within the law and are making a real difference for many threatened species internationally.
