Synopsis

In Ten Commitments, leading environmental thinkers in Australia have written provocative chapters on environmental issues facing the country. The book is organised into three sections: by ecosystem (deserts, rangelands), by sector (fisheries, forestry), and by cross-sector and cross-ecosystem themes. Each chapter addresses the question: "What are the 10 key things that must be urgently addressed to improve Australia's environment?"
