Environment Minister signs death warrant for Port Stephens koalas
The Environment Minister Sussan Ley has signed a death warrant for koalas by approving the extension of the Brandy Hill quarry near Port Stephens today, the Greens say.
Greens Environment Spokesperson Senator Sarah Hanson-Young said:
“It defies logic that an Environment Minister would approve the destruction of critical habitat for the koala, a species facing extinction in NSW.
“Sussan Ley has signed a death warrant for the koalas that call this place home.
