Membership of the EDO is open to all people who care for the environment. Current members are drawn from all walks of life and include students, lawyers, town planners, scientists, academics, and conservationists. Just fill in the attached form, and send it to the EDO with your subscription fee. However good the law is - without enforcement it is useless. The EDO helps to ensure that environmental law in Queensland is enforced and so to protect the environment itself.
All memberships are current for the calendar year only.
Yearly fees fall due each January. Recent years have seen environmental issues occupy a central position in public affairs. Organisations such as the Environmental Defenders Office have an important role in making sure that ordinary members of the community and organisations can adequately participate in the often complex business of environmental protection and enhancement. I look forward to working with the EDO and watching it achieve the same successes it has in other states and countries. Citizens and public interest groups will have a critical need for specialist legal advice and it is here that EDO's role will be crucial.
