We must act now to ensure the Albanese Labor Government does not approve any new coal mines or extensions.
On Tuesdays we remind Labor to reject new coal!
Instagram is playing an increasingly significant role in Australian politics, particularly as a platform for news consumption and political communication, especially among younger demographics.
- Since May 2022, the Albanese Labor Government has approved 12 new coal mines and extensions in NSW and Queensland. Currently, there are 46 new coal projects awaiting government approval, adding to an already vast network of operating coalmines.
- Coal exports are Australia's biggest contribution to the climate crisis. Every new coal mine will cause more intense bushfires and more powerful floods, driving up the cost of food, housing and insurance.
- The Australian Government must immediately stop all coal expansion and plan an orderly phase out to protect the community from the worsening climate crisis.
Join our broadcast channel on Instagram - and every Tuesday join our digital Drop Bears in reminding Labor to reject new coal projects!
