Bring it on Shenhua !




Are you ready to join these 600 people and many others across the country to stand up and help stop Shenhua's climate, cultural and agricultural disaster?
As the world heads to the global climate summit in Paris, it's ludicrous that this senseless project is even being considered back here in Australia. But we must take this stand - there is just too much at stake.
Shenhua, with persistent support from the NSW and Federal Governments, plan to unleash 10 million tonnes of coal every year. If we want a safe climate, we simply can’t dig up more coal. The mine will wipe out sacred cultural sites and some of Australia's best koala habitat. And each pit will be dug into some of the world's best farmland, risking the precious underground water.
Over the coming months we’ll be working with the Liverpool Plains Alliance to turn up the heat on the NSW Government and Shenhua as they attempt to secure the final approvals for the mine. Though our movement will never match the financial power of a Chinese-state backed company like Shenhua, we have something even more powerful -- diverse and dignified people power!
