Marginal Lands re Developments=Bio Fuel Production

Hello to MP Tony Abbott and senator Nick Xenophon

The problem=to many people guided by development-financiers are choosing to live in within premium areas within the coastal and estuarine systems within Australia. This often places communities on the richest environmental hot spots and on the richest soils in the land, being the soils of the alluvial flood plains. The sediments of the wetlands and the alluvial plains are vital to the functioning of the coastal-mangrove and estuarine ecosystems. In turn the whole gulf-ecosystem system within our region could come come under threat and collapse if it is placed under greater urban stress due to negligent development without due care (based upon prior Indigenous knowledge and the dreaming).
The suggestions.
1 Nurture government-business and Indigenous partnerships
2 Use Indigenous priori rights established under the human rights act and International law to secure crown lands and rivers, used as a National and shared resource equity-base.
3 Use ILUA and genre sui agreements to establish the boundaries and the management rights of Crown lands (as a shared resource to be developed jointly to enhance biodiversity and sustainable agricultural practices)
4 Use Aboriginal traditional knowledge systems to assist with Australian farming practice
5 Encourage the development of marginal lands to enhance community dispersal away from the coastal regions ie sustainable farming practice to enhance the marginal farming areas with Government assistance to develop projects that relate to the production of bio-fuels and CO2 sequestration (Goyder's line, make it go away).
6 Develop water use technology that are friendly to marginal regional-ecologies (aquifer usage).
7 Use and develop endemic plant-animal species and useful-exotics that have adapted well, for sustainable agricultural purposes and use indigenous knowledge systems and rights to enhance and benefit our multicultural communities.
By making marginal Australia attractive to environmental-economic-rationalism the economies of those regions may develop naturally as places where populations will be engaged into successful and viable cohabitation with each other and that which is natural development.
