The Sydney Morning Herald Letters: Date: 10/01/2002
When are we going to avail ourselves of the wisdom and experience being offered by Aboriginal people like Bill Lord (Letters, January 8) to solve our nation's problems? It's embarrassing that Mr Lord even has to ask permission of our Government to give advice on the bushfires in what is, after all, his people's country. Likewise with the plan approved by the Environment Minister, David Kemp, to slaughter 6.9 million kangaroos and wallabies. Let's ask how Aborigines traditionally dealt with an imbalance in species numbers. Perhaps the problem never arose when the land was managed as nature intended.
