Keep saying no to shark nets
The science tells us repeatedly that shark spotting with drone technology on patrolled surfing beaches reduces the risk of shark encounters. I recently met with Action for Dolphins advocacy director Jordan Sosnowski, and we resolved to continue working with Sea Shepherd and No Shark Cull to fund Shark Watch for the coming summer season - something the government has refused to do.
Say no to shark nets here.
Protecting Bruns heritage trees
I asked the Environment Minister in Question Time what is being done to protect the endangered ecological community of coastal cypress pines estimated to be up to 400 years old and located on Crown land in the Terrace Caravan Park at Brunswick Heads.
Will she ensure that this precious stand of trees is protected into the future?
