“TREES add to the higher Quality Of Life, by making it an estimated 20 percent cooler in their shade, and providing Office Workers, Shoppers, Students, Elderly, and Children from being sunburnt or cooked alive.

The Baird and Turnbull Liberal Governments are planning to turn hot Sydney into a sauna. This desert of baked concrete will kill Sydney’s Liveable City Status. We believe removing transport to potentially 140,000 shoppers per day will kill Sydney’s businesses as well.

BOB BROWN WANTS TO SAVE SYDNEY TREES

Environmentalist Bob Brown, has called for a change of plan to save the threatened Anzac memorial fig trees on Sydney’s Anzac Parade. ‘Nearly a century old, these magnificent green giants are an essential feature of the idea of Sydney as a vibrant, green global city. Surely cars, not more of those remarkable trees, should be making way for the introduction of modern, pollution-free public transport.’
