☮ ♥ ♬ 🧑‍💻Day 14 🐨🌳🔥🚜🐄🌾“Nearly 2m hectares of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/forests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#forests</a> suitable for endangered koalas have been destroyed since the iconic species was declared a <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/ThreatenedSpecies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThreatenedSpecies</a> in 2011, according to analysis for Guardian Australia.The scale of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/habitat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#habitat</a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/destruction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#destruction</a> in <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Queensland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Queensland</a> and <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/NewSouthWales" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NewSouthWales</a> – states in which the koala is formally recognised as being at risk of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/extinction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#extinction</a> – has continued despite political promises it would be protected.Analysis by the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/AustralianConservationFoundation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AustralianConservationFoundation</a> using state and federal government <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#data</a> found 1,964,200 hectares of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/koala" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#koala</a> habitat were cleared between 2012 and 2021, the latest year for which there was complete data.The total amount of destroyed forest and bush covered an area larger than greater Sydney, taking in the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/BlueMountains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BlueMountains</a>, the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Illawarra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Illawarra</a>, the southern highlands and the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Goulburn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Goulburn</a> and <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Shoalhaven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Shoalhaven</a> regions.It is more than 10 times larger than the area the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/NSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NSW</a> government is assessing for a possible “great koala national park”. But most of the cleared area – 81% – was in Queensland.About three-quarters of the lost forest is estimated to have been cleared for agriculture, to create <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/cattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cattle</a> pasture and <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/crop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crop</a> fields. The analysis found 13% was removed by the <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/forestry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#forestry</a> industry and 5% for development of infrastructure, including <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/mining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mining</a>. Just 4% was likely due to natural causes, such as bushfire and drought.”There’s a reason the Minister for the Environment has been kept quiet. <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Auspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Auspol</a> / <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Labor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Labor</a> / <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Straya" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Straya</a> / <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/ClimateExtinction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateExtinction</a> <<a href="https://theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/apr/12/koala-habitat-destroyed-since-2011-analysis" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/apr/12/koala-habitat-destroyed-since-2011-analysis</a>>
