Thank you to the hundreds of supporters from all over the country who joined in activities on our National Day of Action for the Kimberley, in solidarity with the people of Broome. Watch the video here.
Thank you to everyone who prepared a submission calling on Federal Environment Minister Tony Burke to protect our amazing eastern marine environment from the Coral Sea to Lord Howe Island.
The next twelve months is crucial to deciding the future of the Cape York Peninsula. It could become yet another mining province - forever damaged and degraded, or a World Heritage Area.
So from all of the activists and supporters at the Wilderness Society, we wish Bob well in his future endeavours. We hope he enjoys a relaxing break from the environmental campaign trail.
