This page needs more work to describe some of the major changes going on in this fast growing locality. The shipping coming into the bay and the air transport is set to increase dramatically over the next decade. The port for example is doubling its container handling capacity and the airport is working on the plans for a new--and contentious runway.
The fast growing population of the SE is pressing on on the Bay with boating rising by an estimated 5% per year making it a battleground between the recreational boaters and fishers wanting access and the environmentalists concerned about the biota of the bay. The current rezoning of the Marine Park is reflecting some of the impact of population on the bay.
On the more positive side, it would be good if someone would write about the strides that have been made in stopping pollution of the Bay through the HealthyWaterways programme, the likely impact of stormwater and sewerage recycling. I do not feel qualified to comment properly on these initiatives.````
- By the sound of it you have some sources for this information? Can you post them up here? Rimmeraj 22:31, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Vandalism
What's with all the references to homosexuality in the Moreton Bay article? Surely this could be cleaned up? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.25.140.101 (talk) 04:21, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
