Tom Nilsson

"I have been SPA Treasurer for the last year. During that time the organisation’s finances have improved considerably, and I hope to continue that trend. I have been the President of the Tasmanian branch since its inauguration in 2004. I have previously served as Treasurer of the Tenants' Union of Tasmania and RPH Print Radio Tasmania. I have a Diploma of Business (Administration) and I work as a bookkeeper.

"I am passionately committed to reducing population growth and educating the community about population problems. I want to raise SPA’s media profile. Given that the increasing number of humans is the main underlying cause of environmental destruction, I see converting the environmental movement to our cause as extremely important. Other priorities are to encourage childlessness (as an environmentally responsible lifestyle choice) and to increase overseas aid for family planning." [1]

Tom Nilson was a candidate for the Tasmanian Greens in the 2007 Legislative Council elections in the Division of Nelson in the state of Tasmania.[2]
