Can you believe it? The Albanese Labor government is considering approving the expansion of three massive climate-wrecking coal mines.

The looming approvals come as Pacific Island nations are before the International Court of Justice arguing that developed countries such as Australia have a legal responsibility to tackle the climate crisis.  

Will you stand with the Pacific and all those affected by intensifying climate impacts?

Join community members at the Prime Minister's electorate office at 12:00pm on Monday 9 December to call on Labor to show political leadership and reject these coal mines! 

WHO: Everyone who wants a good future
WHEN: Monday 9 December, 12:00pm
WHERE: Albo's office, 334A Marrickville Rd

BACKGROUND: 

This week, the Albanese government refused ‘reconsideration requests’ for three coal mines: Boggabri, Caval Ridge and Lake Vermont Meadowbrook.

The requests were made by the Environment Council of Central Queensland (ECoCeQ), represented by lawyers from Environmental Justice Australia. ECoCeQ asked the Albanese Labor government to reconsider the assessment of the coal mines, to assess their climate harm and how the climate pollution they would create could impact Australia’s environment and threatened species.

The Albanese Labor government refused. 

This paves the way for the imminent approval of these three coal mines. And we won’t stand for it! 

No one asks for coal for Christmas, but that is what the Albanese Labor government is prepared to give us. It’s time for the community to take action.
