Labor’s ‘nature-positive’ agenda is alarming the mining industry

The term “nature positive” is a naturally appealing concept. It’s increasingly used to indicate the government’s intention to improve Australia’s natural environment, including regeneration of species and ecosystems.A final round of highly confidential consultations is scheduled for the end of this month.

Much of the mining industry is already putting pressure on the WA Labor government to do more to warn Canberra off changes they believe will damage the state’s economy and destroy any prospect of a future surge in critical minerals development. That won’t stop a torrent of criticism being unleashed once the government releases its draft legislation – assuming there’s no change in the department’s approach or cabinet’s view of the results.

Miners insist they are just as determined to protect Australia’s natural environment and biodiversity and already devote great efforts to achieving these outcomes.
