The dumping of dredging waste in the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is scheduled to take place in July.

They (The Government) always find a way to make money by distorting the marine environment... Is it me or is the purpose of a marine park to have natural processes and cycles un-influenced by human activity?..

And the spearos are not up in arms; because it "isn't affecting their fish". When I wrote this 75 ppl had looked at it and no one had commented!

Stevo you might need to provide a bit more info or some links, People are lazy and don't find things out for themselves. They need to be spoonfed.

WARNING: CONTAINS CARROT

The federal government contact a wide range of groups along the GBR region asking for them to provide a letter of support. If they did this then they would be able to say that they had support to their money making cause.
The greens picked up on this issue as well and raised it in parliment. Go get them 'Greens'.

Each spear club, fishing club, conservation organisation etc should submit letters against this action of dumping in a sensitive area. If folks in the south don't unite with the north then you may not have the wonderful locations to come and visit and spear into the future.
