Sky News contributor Dan Petrie says green law-fare "is a self-fulfilling prophecy for self-assured destruction from an economic point of view”.
The Australian is reporting “green activists are using a back door on environmental laws to delay an estimated $65 billion in projects ranging from dams to a salmon farm, with 'lawfare' forcing companies into court for more than 10,000 days in total since 2000". Mr Petrie said “the simple fact is that… the standard of living we enjoy is in large paid for by the mining industry”. “Australia at its very core, particularly from an exports base, is a farm and quarry economy,” he said.
