From Bungendore to Jindabyne and Eden, the tall forests, flowing rivers and plains of the electorate of Eden-Monaro are home to a vibrant diversity of life.
But because big companies are bulldozing our forests and woodlands, iconic local animals like koalas are vulnerable to extinction. State government inaction on feral horses and other introduced species is damaging the magnificent Australian Alps. Plastic pollution clogs otherwise beautiful beaches.
It’s clear we need strong new environment laws and institutions to protect our big old trees, our air, water, wildlife and our future.
The choice voters in the electorate of Eden-Monaro make is famous for matching the outcome of federal elections.
Join us at the Eden-Monaro federal election candidates’ forum to hear where the major parties stand on local environment issues and national environment laws. Which parties and candidates will champion real change?
We’re thrilled to be joined by an impressive group of panelists, including:
