Save our Royal National Park wildlife corridor

The future of Australia's  iconic Royal National Park , Heathcote, Dharawal, Garawarra, and the Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Areas has been in doubt for over thirty years due to the constant threat of over-development, urban sprawl and extraction industries in the essential green wildlife corridor  that connects them.
   
The Royal National Park and its adjacent State Conservation Areas  will  suffer greatly  if the wildlife habitat corridor  connecting them is eroded any further, and each parkland becomes a remote 'island'  bounded by concrete, cyclone fencing  and moonscape clearing.   Biodiversity relies on wildlife migration for feeding, breeding  and new sanctuary  areas in times of  bushfire and drought. A connecting canopy of trees is essential for many species from native insects to the much loved Koala.

Geographically compared to the whole of NSW  this southern wildlife corridor  is only small, but it is one of the most essential  and unique on the East  coast of Australia.  

Essential to
- the future and biodiversity of the national parks and state conservation areas
- protection and repopulation of  many endangered and threatened species of native fauna & flora
- tourism of NSW and  recreation of  residents
- Aboriginal culture and heritage
- our drinking water and  Port Hacking catchment
- clean naturally filtered air for Sydney & Wollongong

Premier O'Farrell, you and your cabinet now have the power to save this 'green corridor'  and create an amazing life long legacy for future NSW residents and millions of tourists. This would make yours, a government to be remembered for such a positive action towards conservation and tourism.

Please register my name, as one of the signatures required by you to raise the 'protection of the NSW green corridor between our National Parks & SCAs' as an urgent issue in  Parliament.
Dear Premier O'Farrell,

Your pre-election promise was to declare Dharawal SCA, a National Park . We all look forward to that  happening within  your current term of office
