Many now flock to natural places for the best selfie background.
"Trampling plants, damaging rock art, risking your life: taking selfies in nature has a cost."
"Someone goes swimming, puts it on social media and suddenly there’s 100 people a day coming to go wild swimming where the platypus and the glow-worms live. And in a wet year, suddenly all the vegetation around the rock pool is trampled, it turns into a muddy mess."

Redesigning roads and intersections to put humans first – The Bellingen case
Bellingen just 'upgraded' Gleniffer Road (The $5.2M “gate way to the Promised Land”) and NorthBankRoad. Both put fossil fuel vehicles first and forgot emission free mobility for people.
But cyclists and foot traffic deserve the same direct routes that motorists have. Elsewhere they rethink transport planning to promote safer cycling and walking options. Another missed opportunity to put Bellingen on the map for pollution free country cruising.

Israel is back in the Promised Land – So, what’s next?
For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. ...Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. Ezekiel 36.24-28

First life cycle assessment for #dogs as #pets reveals significant impacts on the environment
"A dog weighing 15 kilograms produces some 8.2 tons of CO2 over the course of a 13-year lifespan. These 8.2 tons of CO2 are the equivalent of 13 return flights from Berlin to Barcelona and almost as much as the CO2 emitted in the production of a mid-class luxury car, such as a Mercedes C250"
“The 8.2 tons of CO2 produced over 13 years equate to an annual CO2 emission of 630 kilograms. If we place these 630 kilograms of CO2 in the context of the two tons per year indicated as environmentally acceptable for humans by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, then every dog owner can see that almost one third of their CO2 budget is already used up by their dog.”
“The ton of fecal matter and 2,000 liters of urine produced by a dog over a lifetime of 13 years further impact the environment.”

"Water samples taken on 13/03/23 at Arthur Keough Reserve and Lavenders Bridge showed “Poor” or “Bad” water quality. This means that at the time of sampling bacterial levels indicate a substantially increased risk of illness to bathers."

Roaming dogs at the sh*thole.

Road closure, increased #traffic, #pollution and vegetation (habitat) clearing for four month. Smashing a wider, straighter road through the forest will encourage increased #traffic, #speeding and #roadkill. The stated rationale is to get more visitors to the “the popular tourist destination of the #PromisedLand. ” The 'Scenic Drive' might loose some of that picturesque charm, but one can get faster to the #NeverNever loo.

The Promised Land #swimming hole near Bellingen records #faecal contamination of water. The #PromisedLand, near #Bellingen on the NSW Mid North Coast, was so well loved recently that the local council advised swimmers to stay out of the #NeverNever #River that ran through it. There are no public toilets, no rubbish bins, and minimal parking. But that hasn't stopped thousands of people from visiting the scenic swimming spot. There is an increase in litter in the region and damage to some #revegetation areas where people had parked inappropriately.
