This event is hosted by our allies at Environmental Justice Australia (EJA), starting at 7pm AEDT. That’s 7pm in VIC, ACT, TAS, and NSW, 6pm in Queensland, 6.30pm in SA, 5.30pm in NT and 4pm in WA.
Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek just announced she will reconsider 18 coal and gas proposals currently awaiting federal approval.
These proposals – like Woodside’s North West Shelf and Whitehaven’s Narrabri mine – would each have a vast and irreversible impact on our climate and devastate thousands of nationally significant animals, plants and places.
But until now, Australia’s environment ministers have completely neglected to consider this.
Right now, we have an unmissable opportunity to change that. For the next three weeks, the Minister is inviting public comments about the environmental impact of these 18 fossil fuel projects.
Will you make a comment on some, (or all!) of the projects, and help make sure the Minister considers the impacts of each of these projects on our climate and living wonders?
Join the public comment writing party hosted by Environmental Justice Australia (EJA) to find out more, and write your submissions!
