Legislative Issue Advertising in the 108th Congress Pluralism or Peril

Converging global indicators for sustainable forest management
An Agnostic View on Regionalism, Decentralisation and other Silver Bullets
[Extract] We welcome Bruce Thom's response to our paper on The Wentworth Group's (TWG) proposals for reforming environmental management in Australia (Lane et al ., 2004).

Since the paper was published, we have been delighted by the large number of responses we have r…
Decentralisation and Environmental Management in Australia
The prescriptions of The Wentworth Group of scientists for delivering improved environmental management and remediation are reviewed against the backdrop of international experience with decentralisation.

Five problem areas are highlighted: 1. defining…

There have…

Planning rural land development
Australia has a limited area of land suitable for the production of food, fibre and forest products and governments are under increasing pressure from relevant industry groups to release those small areas of land that are not already committed. Land use decisions of this type are predominantly political ones, but the politicians are influenced by whatever facts can be mustered to support competing interests. This article presents a number of meas…
