Australia's Rivers Are Being Legally Destroyed

Описание: You think polluting is illegal? Think again. In Australia, corporations can effectively buy a "license to destroy" our rivers... if they have enough cash.
In this video, I break down the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) licensing system that allows companies to discharge toxic waste into Australian waterways legally. We look at the "Polluter Pays" principle and why the fines are often just a "cost of doing business" rather than a true deterrent.
I explain the complex legal reality behind environmental licenses and expose how the system is designed to manage pollution, not stop it.
