The SA Government is casting you a line about marine parks.
They say they want to prepare to “leave something for your grandkids”. We all agree, but we should not swallow the Government’s proposal hook, line and sinker.
WARNING: The Government’s current proposal is not based on identifying the real threats to marine habitats.
WARNING: The Government’s current proposal does nothing to help areas already under stress.
WARNING: The Government’s current proposal does not state what could happen once outer boundaries are proclaimed. Some time in the future, you could be banned from your favourite fishing spot.
The Government’s proposal is vague, poorly considered and open to change … without consultation.
It’s not a choice about outer boundaries, but what will be lost with yet more government bureaucracy. Let’s focus on any real threats, but say NO to meaningless boundaries.
MARINE PARKS. Look deeper. Don’t just take the bait.
