Paragraph 2
Australia publishes its State of the Environment Report
five years. Each report has painted a sadder
. The Australian Conservation Foundation said Australia's
environment is suffering because the government is not taking
. It said: "There's
in this report we don't know. This is the fourth...report and every
it has told us that the environment is getting
and worse and worse because we're not taking the
of action we need." Australia has lost more mammal
than any other continent. More than 100 Australian species are now extinct. An environmentalist said the report was, "a wake-up call to the
humans are doing to the world around us".
