The Western Australian conservation movement has joined forces to produce a document titled "Getting in Step with the Environment: an Environmental Charter for Western Australia." It sets out the minimum requirements for bringing our society into line with the urgent demands of the environment. All parties in the state election will be scorecarded against the recommendations made in this document, and will be held accountable for promises made during the election campaign.
