“Looks a lot like lip service”: Local groups leave government consultation process in disgust following Labor govt coal approvals
Local community members concerned about climate change have left consultation processes with Labor MPs Peter Khalil, Alicia Payne, and Dr Daniel Mulino in protest following the government’s approval of three coal mines yesterday.

Dingo decision window dressing while wildlife suffers
The Victorian National Parks Association (VNPA) is deeply disappointed by the Victorian government's decision to continue culling native Dingoes until 2028 despite their ecological importance and cultural significance to First Nations communities.

The VNPA believes the decision was made prior to the full conclusion of the consultation process. VNPA condemns the continued…
