Greens Member for South Metropolitan Lynn MacLaren MLC says the large turnout that mobilised at the Beeliar Wetlands this morning in a rapid response to last night’s Federal environmental approval of Roe 8 highlights the significant community opposition to the Freight Link and the preparedness of the community to make this issue the Franklin Dam of our time.
“The community have indicated they are prepared to draw a line in the sand to save the Beeliar wetlands,” Ms MacLaren said.
“The powerful commitment the people of Perth have to protecting the area displayed this morning signals that this will be Franklin Dam issue of our time.”
