The Australian Environment Minister…3

November 22, 2007

GONE with a bit of luck in a few days, along with the other ‘environmental vandals’ (and some people say FOXism ;-).

Below is a google map showing the proposed expansion site for the Gunns Kraft Pulp Mill at Longreach on the Tamar River.

This is an amazingly scenic area full of natural wonder and beauty. The area also has huge eco-tourism potential.

However, if Gunns along with help from Malcolm Turnbull and Co, get their way there may well be an abundance of toxins spewed out into the surrounding river and estuaries, which we believe will almost certainly severely damage the local ecosystems.

Don’t let this area be destroyed by greed.
