HELP SAVE TROPICAL SEA LIFE

Over the next few weeks, Australians have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create tropical sanctuaries for threatened turtles, whales and dolphins, dugongs, whale sharks and a host of other animals.

If you genuinely wish to preserve this habitat for future generations, to ensure fish stocks are not decimated, and care for just one very small eco system then utilise this easy 2 second page, letter already completed for you to just add your name and postcode!

Sanctuaries are places where wildlife can feed and breed without interference. Wildlife in marine sanctuaries is fully protected from the oil and gas drilling operations and from trawling and other forms of fishing.

Yet less than 1% of northern Australia is protected in sanctuary zones.

Marine scientists recommend that a proportion of habitat like shallow coral reefs, seagrass meadows and and deep underwater canyons be fully protected.

Help to demonstrate that Australians really want our magnificent and unique northern tropical wildlife protected.

Please take a few seconds to tell Minister Burke that you want him to protect our tropical wildlife. These sanctuaries will provide areas where tropical wildlife and exist naturally, undisturbed by oil and gas drilling and fishing.
