Resource Sterilisation Endangers National Security
Extreme conservation policies are sterilising so much of Australia’s resources that it is becoming a threat to our national security.
Most wars are about land and resources.
In the colonial era, aggressive Europeans swarmed into Africa, the Americas and Australia attracted by underused land, minerals and timber. More recently, Hitler invaded Eastern Europe and Russia in the search for “living space” and access to Black Sea oil and Japan went to war attracted by the resources of South East Asia and Australia.
Australia is the odd man of Asia – a huge land mass with a small population.
Our populous and rapidly developing northern neighbours need the primary products that Australia has in abundance – food, fibres, minerals and energy. So they note with disbelief the way in which Australia is sterilising these valuable resources.
