Green EV Guide shows how to choose the most sustainable car

Open Letter To Fight Cumberland Plain Conservation Plan Reforms - Signed by 25 NGOs
Dear Local, State and Federal MP,
The Cumberland Plain Conservation Plan (CPCP) covers 200,000ha framing the entire western edge of Sydney. It could curb Sydney’s urban sprawl; protect endangered ecosystems; and help tackle killer urban heat for existing and new residents – while supplying new housing. Twenty-five national, state, and local environment groups are urging that the Plan be amended to put conservation of threatened plant and animal species securely in place before new development. You can find the statement here.
