Paul Peake stated in his posting:

"I am writing to ask you to help with what could be the biggest single win
in protecting nature in Australia- ever."

He is probably correct.  What is sad is that it has taken so long for
Australians to understand this.  The other states have been destroyed long
ago.  It is interesting that Queensland has taken so long to catch up in the
land clearing stakes.  The percentage of the state that has been cleared is
still way less than any of the other states.  Thank goodness that sanity has
prevailed and we are stopping before we get to their levels.
