It keeps getting worse.
Garden Island Creek, TAS
It keeps getting worse. The polluted sea, rivers, land, sky, burn offs, mining, felling…….. It was all here for tourism for people to enjoy forests and oxygen with low impact accomodation and access. Instead I’m watching the tide rise, the shores washing up rubbish, algae growing on the rocks, jet trails, traffic and lots of pretty places turned into suburbia with MacMansion’s outdoing each other. I hope all these people are convinced enough to change their lifestyle. However we need to change the desire advertising and educate people that greed is not fair to the planet. Pollution needs to be dealt with more harshly and politicians should start leading an example not flying to meetings, conventions etc. Why was the computer invented, use the public platforms and video conferencing!
