You simply can’t 'offset' strip mining the only jarrah forest on Earth

"If environmental protection means anything, it must protect what is rare and irreplaceable. That includes the Northern Jarrah Forest and its endangered ecosystems. Allowing its systematic dismantling under the guise of offsets, as part of critical mineral trade strategies, weakens environmental law and erodes public trust.

There is no offset for what cannot be replaced. If we continue to trade unique ecosystems for minerals trading advantage, future generations will look back on this moment not as a triumph of clever policy, but as a surrender to short-term geopolitical tensions, at nature’s expense." https://thepoint.com.au/opinions/260225-you-simply-cant-offset-strip-mining-the-only-jarrah-forest-on-earth
