Tanya Plibersek wrote an article in this mornings SMH regarding climate
change. It can be found here if you're keen:

All very interesting, but nothing new. The one thing that stood out was this
reason given for overturning the Bald Hill Wind Farm:

"The reason given was that one endangered orange-bellied parrot might get
killed every 1000 years."

Were the numbers really that low, or is this another excellent example of
statistical bending? Can anyone confirm or deny?
