A Rob Blakers production published by Wild Island Tasmania

A stunning publication about the Pilitika / Robbins Island and the wind farm that threatens culture, wildife and landscape alike.

Enduring cultural heritage at Pilitika / Robbins Island connects the past, present and future for First Nations people. Today, the region is also a haven for wildlife, including a host of migratory and threatened species.

The Pilitika / Robbins Island eco-region contains Tasmania's most important shorebird site and is situated on the migratory path of ornage-belliedand blue-winged parrots. It provides habitat to nesting eagles,and is frequented by migratory white-throated needletails. It supportsTasmania's largest intact wild population of diease-free Tasmanian devils and contains geological features of international significance.

There are right places and wrong places for windfarms. Pilitika / Robbins Islandis the wrong place for a wind farm.
