Hi Penny
As a Councillor I just want everyone to get on to their local Council about
issues like this. Are they doing enough? Says who? Not just muggins that
you elected.
The effect of Camphor Laurel on birds ("very acceptable") seems likely, as
well as displacing other vegetation, to be killing some species. See ABW
March 06 "Invasive and toxic Camphor Laurel: A potential threat to native
Australian birds".
I've been at this issue for years. At least my Council now controls
bird-attracting weeds by eliminating it them where they threaten native
species and controlling them elsewhere.
And climate change? How far south is it going to go as temperatures climb?
Too far I suspect.
