Green Government Department of Environmental Law

Green Government, and the Department of Environmental Law.

If a nation was so forward-thinking as to elect a Green Government, one of the 1st measures it would have to make, is to establish a Department of Environmental Law.

This department would 1st set out which Rules of Behaviour society must observe, in terms of ensuring minimum degradation to the habitat.

As society, in Australia, is so far from being and behaving within such ideal laws, the department, or these laws which guide it's administration, would have to be hypothetical.

Serious, but hypothetical.

The point and need for such a department and for such laws, is that government, contrary to popular notions of what government is about, as we've been told to understand and expect by the last 500 years of dominant western rulers and authorities, government is about the perennial sustenance of the nation, in terms of food and habitat supplies, for and from each person up to the largest enterprise and infrastructure projects.

To now, over the last 500 years, out of the “north” or “western nations”, there has been a total neglect of the fundamental need for observance of such a thing as Environmental Law, at least in the powers controlling the expansion, and colonisation of the northern culture.

These powers have gradually coalesced into today's International Monetary Fund, the IMF, which has become so large, that it's upper management has felt they are capable of doing anything, and their global dominance will ensure they get away with it.

Clearly, climate change believer or denier or not, the effects upon the Earth's environment show the world that such IMF-type beliefs, based merely on domination, are deeply flawed.

The most important Laws they have ignored, are the perennial environmental laws. Laws which every Aborigine Nation has strictly maintained observation of, forever.

So, an hypothetical Department of Environmental Law, would set-down the Rules which society, all branches, must aspire to, be-it over time from here forward, but perhaps in generational steps, so that a future, dependent upon a healthy biosphere, can be grown closer to, for and by each generation of people from here on.
