The issue

Join us in supporting our cause to Abolish 1080 poison and stop the ecocide on unceded a lands and waterways in so called Australia. Animals, plants, beloved pets and humans have endured horrific fatalities at the hands of this substance. There are many forms of 1080 baiting these include (but are not limited to) being dropped out of planes in abundance. These abandoned baits often become unaccounted for within water catchments, National Parks, State Forests, Nature Reserves and Private Land. Definitive research has shown 1080 poison to be extremely toxic and, in some cases, fatal and as such it is banned in most countries around the world. Alarmingly, for every bait taken by a pest species, 84 were taken by other species - http://researchportal.murdoch.edu.au/esploro/outputs/journalArticle/Fate-of-dried-meat-baits-aimed/991005540260507891

We need your signature to protect ecosystems, animals, create change, challenge systems and decisions that endorse these lethal forms of pest control. 1080 affects many vital species belonging within our ecosystems outside of it's intended use. This substance is dangerous, it cannot be accounted for and there are no systems in place to collect the carrion which results in a continuous repetition of lethal cycles.
