From Master Resource<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Robert Bradley Jr.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThere are signs that we may be reaching peak madness as opposition to cowboy renewable-energy development grows in regional and rural Australia\u2026. Anger about the rampant spread of solar, wind and transmission development proposals has galvanized communities into action.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m dismayed by the indifference of Green activists to the fate of the Greater Glider and other native wildlife that is losing its natural habitat in the rush for renewables,\u201d Nick Cater<\/a> recently posted<\/a>. He continued with the specifics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The vast hectares of native forest being destroyed to install wind turbines along the Great Dividing range is well documented in environmental impact statements for projects like the Upper Burdekin (Gawara Baya) Wind Farm in Far North Queensland.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

Here\u2019s an extract from the approval for the project given by Tanya Plibersek in April:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo avoid and mitigate harm to protected matters, the Approval Holder must not clear more than:
\u201ca) 605.3 ha of Sharman\u2019s Rock Wallaby Habitat,
\u201cb) 581 ha of Greater Glider (northern) Habitat, including:
\u201ci) no more than 331 ha of Greater Glider (northern) Denning Habitat, and
\u201cii) no more than 250 ha of Greater Glider (northern) Foraging Habitat,
\u201cc) 581 ha of Masked Owl (northern) Habitat,
\u201cd) 614 ha of Koala habitat,
\u201ce) 616 ha of Red Goshawk Habitat, including:
\u201ci) no more than 331 ha of Red Goshawk Breeding Habitat, and
\u201cii) no more than 285 ha of Red Goshawk Foraging Habitat,
\u201cf) 614 ha of Grey-headed Flying-Fox Foraging Habitat,
\u201cg) 614 ha of Spectacled Flying-Fox Foraging Habitat
\u201ch) 546 ha of Greater Large-eared Horseshoe Bat Roosting Habitat,
\u201ci) 545 ha of Bare-rumped Sheathtail Bat Habitat,
\u201cj) 614 ha of White-throated Needletail Habitat,
\u201ck) 614 ha of Fork-tailed Swift Habitat, and
\u201cl) 0 ha of occupied Magnificent Brood Frog Habitat\u201d

These are vulnerable and endangered native species. Should the developers be allowed to destroy a single hectare of their precious habitat?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Cater added in \u201cCollateral Damage<\/a>\u201d at his Substack site, Reality Bites<\/a> with the subtitle \u201cDestroying Greater Glider habitat is ok if you\u2019re trying to save the planet\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The greater glider is in pole position to win the Marsupial of the Year contest. Australia\u2019s largest gliding possum has pushed the much-fancied koala into second place in the latest rankings. Fittingly, the winner of the battle between creatures struggling for survival will be announced next week on Channel Ten\u2019s The Project, a show that has been hovering on the brink of extinction for some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Australian Conservation Foundation has been drumming up support for the panda-eyed eucalypt munchers with their teddy bear ears. \u201cIf smooth gliding, extra fluffy fur and smelly conversations are your thing, vote for the Greater Glider!\u201d It urges on its website. It claims the Greater Glider population has halved in the last 20 years because of bushfires and logging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This makes it odd, to say the least, that ACF is not raising a stink about Lotus Creek, where 310 hectares of old-growth forest are about to be bulldozed to make room for wind turbines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lotus Creek Wind Farm is 100 per cent funded by the Queensland Government<\/em> and is supported by the Commonwealth. The environmental cost of the project in the Connors Range adjacent to the Glencoe State Forest is well documented. Researchers counted 138 greater gliders during their environmental assessment. The old-growth trees provide hollow dens for the creatures to rest during the day. The area offers a rich habitat for Koalas and Squatter pigeons and is a refuge for the Powerful Owl and White-Throated Needletail, all classified as vulnerable.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The culpability is at the top of government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

An ecological assessment report listing five Matters of National Environmental Significance under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act was placed on Tanya Plibersek\u2019s desk shortly after she became Environment Minister in 2022. It gave Plibersek strong grounds to block the project as her Coalition predecessor, Sussan Ley, had done. Yet Plibersek overturned Ley\u2019s decision and sanctioned the destruction of remnant bushland on the Great Dividing Range that was virtually untouched by farming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ACF has not raised an eyebrow about the Lotus Creek atrocity. Neither has it lodged an objection to Twiggy Forrest\u2019s Upper Burdekin (Gawara Baya ) wind turbine development that received Plibersek\u2019s rubber stamp in June. Ditto the French giant Neoen\u2019s plans for Mount Hopeful 65 km west of Gladstone, approved by Plibersek in April, and the Boulder Creek Wind Farm she approved in June 2022, in which the Queensland State Government has a 50 per cent stake.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Cater continues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Wind turbine developments also threaten to destroy greater glider and koala habitat at Mount Fox north of Ingham, Moah Creek and Boulder Creek to the west of Rockhampton. The Queensland government has approved all three, and Plibersek\u2019s signature is regarded as little more than a formality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gulf between Plibersek\u2019s actions and words is wide enough to be viewed from outer space. On Friday, Plibersek announced the Government would co-host the Global Nature Positive Summit next month in Gadigal Country, or Sydney as it was once known. \u201cAustralia can be a global leader in protecting and restoring nature and stopping biodiversity loss,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cenvironmentalist\u201d movement is at fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Yet our nature-positive Environment Minster has sanctioned the destruction of at least 1260 hectares of Greater Glider habit in old-growth forests in Queensland while supine environmental bodies like the ACF, Greenpeace and the Wilderness Society urge the Government to roll out renewables faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three activist organisations, with a combined income of more than $58 million at their disposal last year, are staunch advocates of renewable energy and are strongly opposed to nuclear. None has been prepared to question the cumulative environmental damage of land-hungry wind, solar and pumped hydro schemes. They have shown little compassion for scores of rural communities with uglification forced upon them by pious city-based bureaucrats drawing lines on maps.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Continuing,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

A decree by the European Union to ban imports of beef contaminated by de-forestation has gifted the laptop activists another chance to beat up on regional Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 The ACF is running a slippery campaign of moral equivalence to portray tightly regulated rotational clearance of woody growth on well-managed Australian farms<\/strong> with illegal tree-felling by cattle ranchers in the Amazon Basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The activists want to change the definition of \u201cold-growth\u201d to anything older than 15 years. If beef farmers become collateral damage in the EU\u2019s virtue-signalling campaign, so be it. To them, anything that hastens the glorious vegan revolution must be good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Save Our Big Backyard campaign raises the green left to new level of<\/strong> unsteady, bare-faced hypocrisy. There is ample evidence to show that the biggest threat to the sanctity of our native vegetation and wildlife comes from wind and solar farmers, not the cattle industry. Vast hectares of land that have survived more than 200 years of settlement farming are being sacrificed for the sake of the planet.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Cater asks, what will Australia\u2019s future citizens and government officials think about the anti-CO2 crusade in light of its collateral damage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Future generations will look back at these people with disdain. They will gaze at scarred hillsides where dynamite was used to build access roads and clear the ground for vast concrete pads as big as a football field to erect giant wind turbines which will have long-since been removed. They will wonder how on earth an affluent, sophisticated and environmentally conscious nation could sanction such things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future anthropologists will write textbooks about the religious fervour that led early-21st-century humans to believe they could harvest energy directly from the wind and the sun. They will be puzzled as to why they didn\u2019t adopt nuclear technology, just as cultural historians of Mesoamerica are curious why the Aztecs never discovered the wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are signs that we may be reaching peak madness as opposition to cowboy renewable energy developers grows in regional and rural Australia, and people in the city begin to latch on. The backlash is particularly noticeable in Queensland, where the Labor government appears to have given up hope of retaining any seat north of Sandgate. Anger about the rampant spread of solar, wind and transmission development proposals has galvanised communities into action. Anti-renewable billboards funded by small donations have begun to appear along the Bruce Highway south of Gympie\u2026.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Final Comment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nick Cater speaks truth to wind power on ecological grounds. His persistence documents the \u201cit\u2019s hard being green\u201d quandary of the modern environmental movement, which has made a pact with the devil in its one-dimensional crusade. Will real environmentalists please stand up?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
