Nature in Australia is in trouble. Australia has one of the worst extinction rates on Earth, and it's getting worse.
Our forests and bushland are being bulldozed at an alarming rate. Even the iconic koala is threatened in some states.
But this year, we have an incredible opportunity to halt the damage so nature can start healing.
For the first time in almost 25 years, the Australian Government is rewriting our national nature laws. Right now the laws are broken. But with your support, we can call on our government to create strong laws that actually protect nature and an independent regulator to enforce them.
Donate today, and together we'll:
- Keep up the public pressure on the PM and the Environment Minister so they deliver on their commitment for strong new national laws that stop the destruction and put nature on the path to recovery.
- Power bold public moments, including our biggest ever advertising campaign - sending a powerful and visible message of our communities' demand to save our Big Backyard.
- Expose the real story behind bulldozing, through Freedom of Information requests, monitoring of illegal habitat destruction and massive media investigations
- Commission reports on the extent of the crisis and provide expert input as the government rewrite our laws– so the science guides action
Together, we’ll protect the forests, rivers, deserts and wetlands we love and turn the tide on extinction.
Give now to power this and other critical work today. Your donation will be used where it's needed most – ensuring that your gift is as impactful as possible. ACF is funded by tens of thousands of Australians. This means our campaigns to protect our living world are fearless, objective and independent.
Thank you, from every living thing.
