Dear ,
After falling sharply from 2005, land clearing in Australia is once again rising dramatically thanks to the severe weakening of land clearing laws by state governments.
To understand the impact of tree clearing on climate change more clearly, we commissioned CO2 Australia to conduct a full report. The results in this report confirm that Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions from tree clearing are skyrocketing, with land-sector emissions almost doubling in the past three years.
This is outrageous! The bulldozers aren’t just destroying Australia’s precious forests and woodlands – they’re also releasing millions of tonnes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, exacerbating climate change.
If nothing is done, greenhouse gas emissions will spiral out of control. To learn more about land clearing and what you can do to make a difference, read more.
