Coal – Page 2 – Sydney Knitting Nannas and Friends

It’s been a long battle against Whitehaven’s climate wrecking new mines in northern NSW and in the Bowen Basin in Queensland. The company’s mine in the Leard State Forest at Maules Creek demonstrates their environmental vandalism, water thieving and lack of care for regulations.

Support the Rylstone community by this Wednesday, 18 August. The people of the Rylstone area are strongly opposed to coal mining and exploration in their region, and they encourage us all to help. The rivers, groundwater, Aboriginal heritage sites, farms, endangered species, agriculture and tourism would be damaged or destroyed if mining goes ahead.

Anti coal and gas march led by Knitting Nannas

Sydney Knitting Nannas & Friends held a rally in Sydney on March 17 against the expansion of coal and gas mining. Nannas are particularly outraged by governments continuing to prop up coal and gas companies by spending taxpayer dollars to subsidise these industries.
