Vision and leadership needed for
NSW to become the clean, green
state
The NSW State election provides the

ient environment for the benefit of

according to NSW’s leading
environment groups.
The Nature Conservation Council of
NSW, National Parks Association,
Total Environment Centre, Blue
Mountains Conservation Society,
Colong Foundation for Wilderness
