Environment Tasmania

@OYFallTSM We'd love to do more testing. we really need to replicate this salmon test on a larger scale. et.org.au/chip_in send us a little coin for lab fees if you like?

theaustralian.com.au/science/farmed… Health experts are concerned that salmon isn't as healthy as it's been advertised as. Time for FSANZ to take a closer look, and by closer look we mean **very** independent testing - buy it off the shelf.

@theprojecttv Thanks for a balanced report. If folks would like to sign our petition it's salmon.org.au.

Salmon farming is big business in Tassie and the industry is set to grow even bigger, with the three major salmon farmers getting the green light to expand into Storm Bay. But does the cost of that expansion come with an environmental price tag?

Did you notice Australia's Paris climate target has been slashed in half? buff.ly/2SqwOkR @Melissa4Durack @smh #Climatebreakdown #Leadershipbreakdown @lindareynoldswa @Liberalaus @Liberalswa @simonahac

@prrsimons @FoEAustralia @JoshFrydenberg @StopAdaniK @AusConservation @LiteFootPrints @_Oliver_Yates @ClimateLeaders_ @ActOnClimateVic @Yes2Renewables Too late for credible policy from this Govt

Amazing crowd gathering here outside @JoshFrydenberg's office to send a message that enough is enough, we need climate leaders #KooyongVotesClimate #KooyongVotes #auspol

@_Oliver_Yates @mavsmum Too late for a credible policy now

@PatsKarvelas Whatever climate policy the Liberals release now is and will be unbelievable.

Last night Arthur Sinodinos told me the party will and should unveil a climate change policy before the election #auspol

@WillHodgman Have you secured every possible resource to stop the world heritage and national park destruction?

Huonville this afternoon with the Bushfire Recovery Coordinator Michael Stevens and Jacquie Petrusma to meet with Mayor and amazing team volunteers at the evacuation centre and animal refuge at Ranelagh. A wonderful example of community spirit & resilience in challenging times.

@WillHodgman Will are you sure you have done everything you can to secure all available resources to prevent our National Parks being burnt?

@looksouth @TasmaniaParks Why is this not an emergency? Where is the environment minister?

#Tasmanian #WorldHeritage #Wilderness - @TasmaniaParks preparing for @Tasfires to enter national parks. Most iconic Mt Field Tarn Shelf, with its glorious deciduous beech, is getting a sprinkler line open.abc.net.au/explore/80950; Walls of Jerusalem huts to be sisalation wrapped.

@diva_ex_machina The frogs feet are in boiling water

Tasmania, a little temperate forested island at the bottom of the world, is on fire. A full quarter of the island is World Heritage listed because of our unique highland and rain-forest flora. Global warming is burning even the previously cool and damp. All bets are off.

@iratepirate @looksouth @TasFireService Because we have so dramatically affected the climate that is a discussion we should have

#GellRiver #Tasmanian #WorldHeritage #Bushfire Sad to say @TasFireService map now shows much of Denison Range covered by fire ground, including string of glacial lakes. This is precious wilderness, valued by UNESCO. We must hear from Govt on how this happened. Not later. Now.

@LEANAustralia Or more accurately defence of Christine Milne’s policy legacy brings reward

Or, more correctly as per subheading: "Decisions by *Labor and* crossbench to save clean energy agencies encouraged investment"

@TheRealEwbank @SaveWesternport @FoEAustralia @ActOnClimateVic The Conservatives war on nature being exposed

Climate change is the number 1 issue. We worry about giving our kids a decent education and we work hard to leave them some money or assets. We need to leave them a liveable planet. Next election, vote for your kids’ & grandkids’ future, so they have one

Don’t be fooled by string of surpluses — Tasmania really has cash deficits themercury.com.au/news/opinion/n… Another masterclass from John and a great expose of financial spin.
