The AUSTRALIAN ENVIRONMENT
I Love a Sunburnt Country...
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of drought and flooding rains,
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel sea,
Her beauty and her terror -
The wide brown land for me.
an excerpt from Dorothea MacKellar's Poem .... (1908: written 1906)
Here is a link to the NEWS.COM.AU for all the latest issues and reports on environmental issues that affect Australia.
It's only bad news really, but there is more signs that governments are taking the global environmental problems more seriously - but will it be enough and will it come soon enough?
