Well, as it appears, the federal government is pushing forward with making life harder for primary producers to appease the UNESCO overlords.
I suspect we will see the rollout of fertiliser bans for farming like some countries in Europe has forced on their farmers.

LEAKED LETTER TO UNESCO DETAILS THE DESTRUCTION OF QLD'S PRIMARY INDUSTRIES.
Robbie Katter MP and the KAP have brought to light evidence of what could be the death knell of Queensland's primary industries.
A leaked letter, authored by Federal Environment and Water Minister Tanya Plibersek to UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay on 25 May 2023, describes in detail how far the federal government will go to appease UNESCO and how willing they are to make rural Queensland in particular the sacrificial lamb at the alter of the foreign body.
Among the measures are promises to UNESCO to:
👉 Enact, with immediate effect, a major shift in its water quality programs, specifically implementing:
1. By 31 December 2023, a complete mapping of all priority areas of grazing land for gully repairs and associated restoration and remediation activities;
2. By January 2024, double compliance activity being undertaken across the regulated reef catchment areas comparative to 2021 in order to enforce landholder compliance with reef protection regulated standards;
3. By July 2024, expand the implementation of 2018 land clearing legislation and further strengthen protection to remnant and high value conservation areas;
4. By February 2025, accelerate progress to achieve all water quality targets through a program of sediment, nutrient and pesticide reduction through combined efforts in regulation, incentives and accelerated landscape restoration programs (e.g. a further 32.3% reduction in dissolved inorganic nitrogen loads).
👉 Completely restructure access to fisheries in and around the Reef, specifically:
1. By 31 December 2023, establishing a complete net-free zone in the North third of the property (Cape Bedford to the tip of the Cape York) and establishing additional net-free zones that expand net restrictions in the Gulf of Carpentaria so to “strengthen protections for threatened species that move between the GBR and the Gulf”;
2. By 31 December 2023, finalising all harvest strategies with defined quotas for all key species and by 31 December 2027 working to achieve the target maximum economic yield of 60% biomass;
3. By 31 December 2023, introduce legislation to mandate the use of Independent Data Validation on all commercial fishing vessels.
4. By 30 June 2027, phasing out all gillnet fisheries to ensure the property as a whole will be gill-net free.
👉 Set successively more ambitious emissions reduction targets, reflecting the highest possible ambition, consistent with achieving net zero by 2050, by:
1. Ensuring emissions reductions of 43 per cent by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050;
2. Continually increasing the Government’s climate ambition by working urgently to implement its substantial and rigorous suite of new policies to maximise their emissions impact and drive Australia’s transition to net zero;
3. Increase Australia’s renewable electricity generation to 82 per cent by 2030;
4. By 2035, ensuring Queensland has no regular reliance on coal for power production.
