Too many of Australia’s species, ecological communities and ecosystems are at risk of extinction, collapse or ongoing decline and degradation.
Conservation Council of WA, together with alliance partners and key groups, are calling on the WA Government to strengthen our environmental protection laws.
The four major areas of reform set out in 'WA at the Crossroads: A Protection Agenda for Nature' would deliver the mechanisms needed to protect WA’s unique environments, which are facing multiple compounding threats amid declining government attention and action.
This is not a comprehensive review of WA’s environment laws or agencies, but is a consolidation of key reforms that have been identified by the Conservation Council of WA and alliance partners.
