Hi BA
The enormous, polluting Adani Carmichael coal mine proposal is possibly the
biggest threat to our birds and wildlife that we have yet seen.
The emissions from this mine will cancel out all our emissions reductions.
Basically, everything you've ever done to reduce your carbon footprint will
be a waste if this mine goes ahead.
It is predicted that the emissions from this mine will send global
temperature over 2 degrees above normal. Read more here:
http://envlaw.com.au/carmichael-coal-mine-case/ This is an impossible
scenario for many of our birds.
Luckily, Get Up are involved. As are just about every environmental
organisation in Australia including ACF, 350 Australia, Greenpeace and
traditional owners. We will need every bit of help from everyone to win
this. You can donate to Get Up here:
