Miranda Kerr Poses Nude For Rolling Stone Magazine to Promote Koala Conservation

Koala conservation is actually something I have posted about here repeatedly and it is good to see that someone is getting of the global warming band wagon to promote real conservation:

Victoria’s Secret beauty Miranda Kerr has posed naked on the cover of
Rolling Stone. To be more precise. the nude photo of Miranda Kerr is on the cover of the Australian issue of Rolling Stone.  The stunning Miranda Kerr posed nude on the cover of Rolling Stone to raise awareness about environmental issues in general and the plight of the koalas in particular. “Something like 80 percent of the koalas’ habitat has been destroyed since Europeans arrived in Australia,” says Miranda Kerr.

To my way of thinking there is nothing particularly abhorrent about posing semi-nude for a good cause. And saving the adorable koala bear is most definitely a worthy cause. So
kudos to Miranda Kerr for using her beauty in a socially responsible way.  [Associated Content]

I haven’t read the magazine article, but judging from this above article Kerr understands that the loss of the koalas natural habitat due to land clearing is what has greatly reduced the number of koalas in the Australian bush. This fact hasn’t stopped the usual suspects to claim global warming is killing koalas. Despite the claims from the eco-loons according to the Australian Koala Foundation there are now less then 100,000 koalas left in the wild in Australia due to land clearing. That is less then the number of minke whales in the oceans that Australians get worked up over every year during the Japanese whale hunt.

The land clearing forces koalas to move long distances in search of new habitat that exposes them to feral animals and motor vehicles. Even if
the newest global warming claim is true, the koala first needs to have habitat left before global warming can even threaten it.
