eaked figures
obtained by the ABC show land
clearing in Queensland last year was around 278,000 hectares — triple what it
was in 2009.
The scale of the clearing is of a size larger than the ACT
with one property alone permitted to clear 600 square kilometres.
Martin Taylor for conservation group WWF described the
increase as "meteoric and extremely alarming".
