[QUOTE="Kidds, post: 7685855, member: 5589"] The scale of environmental destruction by bush clearance is quite extraordinary in Australia. I have seen it in quite a few places over there. The very biggest I saw was just North of Perth where they were building a whole new suburb, amongst it was an animal sanctuary with koalas and kangaroos which were almost certainly displaced when the bush was cleared. Absolutely staggering as that was the only place any locals were ever going to see them, all as a result of their new house and new shopping centre. Not for me to be judgemental from the other side of the world but it did feel quite wrong and immoral. The other place I saw it was QLD, the government had announced there was to be no more clearance after a certain date, the obvious result was the farmers went out and cleared the lot immediately. Lots of passion about these things, Roy shows a lot in his posts but at the end of the day he too is farming cleared land, as I am too of course. [/QUOTE]
