Today I feel like I did a good thing.

I just called minister #TanyaPlibersek's office, Federal Minister for Environment and Water regarding the #ToondahHabour development by the #WalkerCorporation.

The development would destroy 40 hectares of the treaty-listed #MoretonBay Ramsar Site.

The critically endangered Eastern Curlew juveniles spend the year there, while adults fly to the Arctic and back.

This page has a handy tool for making the call. Try it yourself!

Save Toondah Harbour — Act for Birds

This beautiful harbour is home to Critically Endangered migratory shorebirds but could soon be destroyed forever to build a luxury private apartment complex. Will you add your voice to the growing movement to Save Toondah Harbour?

Building on a burial ground

On the one hand is a $3 billion development to accommodate thousands of families; on the other is a burial site that is of immeasurable cultural significance. The problem? They are both on the same ground.
