Big Businesses Are Doing Carbon Dioxide Removal All Wrong

The technology is needed to limit global warming. But corporations are supporting it in lieu of reducing emissions.

WIRED

So, we’re urgently calling on the Government for stronger national environmental laws, that:

• Enact strong and enforced National Environmental Standards that safeguard nature against further destruction.

• Properly fund #HabitatRestoration and #SpeciesRecovery.

• Create an independent Environment Protection Australia (#EPA) that will monitor and enforce these laws.

• Close legal loopholes that favour #BigBusinesses over nature.

Don't let our government back out on nature protection.

The Albanese government has committed to nature law reforms and zero new extinctions. Sign this petition to hold the government to account!
