Great Barrier Reef ad campaign is LNP 'greenwashing' – Labor

LNP leader Tim Nicholls says the advertising plan is to 'overcome misleading green activist scare campaigns'

A Liberal National party plan to spend $4m on a Great Barrier Reef marketing campaign if it takes power in Queensland has drawn fire as an attempt at "greenwashing" in a void of climate policy.

The LNP leader, Tim Nicholls, said the advertising was to "overcome the misleading green activist scare campaigns which have talked down our greatest natural wonder".
