Eco-Action Kangaroo Island
If it weren’t for Eco-Action, KI would have:
- Much less roadside vegetation
- No Fly Neighbourly Agreement
- Helicopters flying with virtually no restrictions
- No restorative work done at Pennington Bay
- Not received such good publicity with the 2009 Native Vegetation and Coastcare awards going to Eco-Action.
Eco-Action Kangaroo Island was set up by some concerned residents in about 1991. This was in response to the then Kingscote Council deciding to severely damage roadside vegetation. Eco-Action took the Council to court, won the first round but lost the appeal on a technicality. The final outcome was that some very sensible policies were established in relation to roadside vegetation control.
There have been many environmental issues which Eco-Action has supported in various ways. View the full story here.
