It is widely recognised that current management is not adequate to protect WA’s precious conservation estate from threats including feral animals, weeds, inappropriate fire management and damaging, uncontrolled access. We call on the next State Government to significantly increase resourcing for the management of conservation lands in WA.
The Conservation Council of WA (CCWA), in collaboration with key member groups and partners, developed a further set of priorities for environmental reform ahead of the 2025 State Election. These priorities address some of the most imminent threats to our unique and precious nature in WA.
