The traditional owners, Wangan and Jagalingou, have been fighting to protect their land for a decade. Now the site is in the Galilee Basin, Queensland. The big problem is Adani want to destroy this area for the Carmichael coal mine. Adani has been given approval by the Queensland and Australian federal regimes – why? This company gets tax breaks to invest here? Adani aren’t just into coal mining but also weapons manufacturing – oh great! Good onya, Queensland and Australian regime. Maybe they have a deal going with Adani to supply weapons?
I support the traditional owners by donating money to the Wangan and Jagalingou traditional owners’ corporation, BSB: 304003, Account: 278038.
I’m sure they would love you if you could make a big or small donation. Thank you.
