Background Information
A clearer picture of the devastating impacts of offshore gas export projects across Australia is emerging and we’d love your help to shine a spotlight on the climate, environmental and human consequences that are not getting the attention they deserve.
Australia’s LNG exports are a far bigger contributor to global emissions than those counted by the Australian government. While Australia’s 2030 national emissions target has grabbed the headlines, gas exports contribute much more significantly to climate, environmental and cultural breakdown.
These gas projects are immense in scale but far from well known, as is their support from state and federal governments. Even less well known is the fact they offer little economic benefit to our country.
Join our ACTION webinar, designed to give you the information and confidence you need to bring this critical issue to the attention of your community and federal and state MPs.
We’ll provide snapshots of gas projects from the Northern Territory to Victoria’s Otways, highlighting their scale, impacts, and the campaigns to stop them.
You’ll hear from a renowned marine scientist as well as leading first nation and key environmental campaigners from WA, NT and Western Victoria as they share accounts of the impacts offshore gas exploration is having in their communities, including the damage to climate, the environment, marine life and the lives of people living there. And there’ll be time for questions.
We look forward to seeing you online on November 3rd. You can register here to attend this free event.
