EDOs of Australia provides legal support in court cases on environmental matters. EDOs for Australia also plays an advocacy role, lobbying on environmental policy matters.〔EDOs of Australia, (Network policy submissions ), retrieved January 2009.〕
==EDOs of Australia and climate change==
Several major Australian NGOs, including EDOs of Australia and the Australian Conservation Foundation, have been lobbying has for some years for the inclusion of global warming as a matter of national environmental significance in Australia's main environmental protection legislation, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.〔Kirsty Ruddock, 'Does climate change litigation work?' ''National Environmental Law Review'', Summer, 2007.〕〔Lee Godden and Jacqueline Peel, 'The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth): Dark sides of virtue', ''Melbourne University Law Review'', Vol. 31, 2007.〕 This campaign was related to a range of court cases with which EDOs of Australia was involved, mostly unsuccessfully, seeking recognition of greenhouse gas emissions as a matter that should be considered in environmental impact assessment procedures. These included those known as the ''Bowen Basin'' case,〔''Wildlife Preservation Society of Queensland Proserpine/Whitsunday Branch Inc v Minister for the Environment and Heritage and Ors'', 2006 FCA 736〕 the ''Anvil Hill'' cases,〔''Anvil Hill Project Watch Association Inc v Minister for the Environment & Water Resources & Anor'', (2008 FCAFC 3 ), retrieved January 2009.〕〔''Anvil Hill Project Watch Association Inc v Minister for Environment and Water Resources & Centennial Hunter Pty Ltd'', (2007 FCA 1480 ), retrieved January 2009.〕 and the ''Gray'' case.〔''Gray v Minister for Planning'', 2006 NSWLEC 720.〕 While many of these cases were lost, they raised the profile of climate change as a legal issue, particularly in the mining industry.〔
Inclusion of greenhouse gas emissions as a trigger in the Australian legislation became a policy of the Australian Labor Party.〔Australian Labor Party, ALP National Platform and Constitution 2007, (Chapter 9: Combating Climate Change and Building a Sustainable Environment ), retrieved January 2009〕
