Allan Rees, convenor of climate action group 350 Eurobodalla, was among a group of about 20 protestors who attended the campaign launch in Moruya, including members of Southcoast Health and Sustainability Alliance (SHASA).
"With less than an hour's notice, a number of people from Eurobodalla community groups attended the launch to highlight their concerns with the NSW Liberals and Andrew Constance's environmental performance," Mr Rees said.
"Andrew Constance supports continued over logging of our native forests, recreational fishing in the high conservation fish breeding zones of the Batemans Bay Marine Park, no renewables target for NSW, and the Eurobodalla Council's proposed Rural Lands Strategy/planning proposal which will remove a number of important environmental protections for native forests, wetlands and waterways on private land."
