Daylesford, VIC: Guarding the Galilee - a documentary about the Adani Coal Mine

I am organising the screening of the new documentary Guarding The Galilee about Adani’s proposed coal mine which will gravely impact The Great Barrier Reef, on Thursday July 13th at Daylesford Cinema, Vincent Street, Daylesford at 6pm. Senator Janet Rice will be in attendance and I will be inviting other sitting members to attend also.

Presented by Queensland-born actor Michael Caton, this new 30-minute documentary shines a spotlight on the battle to stop the biggest coal mine in Australian history, Adani’s Carmichael project. The award-winning documentary team captures the raw beauty of the Queensland outback, where Adani’s mine threatens essential water resources.

Just downstream from the proposed mine site, a grazier fears for the impact on the river that quenches the thirst of his cattle, and flows through to the Coral Sea. On the coast, a boat owner operating out of the Airlie beach tourist hotspot worries about the hundreds of extra ships steaming through the Great Barrier Reef each year. Meet these and many others engaged in this fight and find out exactly what mining billionaire Adani has planned for Australia.

I’m hosting the screening in Daylesford because I’m worried about the enormous impacts of Adani’s proposed coal mine on the reef, our climate and our future. I also don’t want to see our governments give Adani a $1 billion taxpayer funded loan for this destructive coal mine.

Everyone is invited to come along to this FREE screening and find out more about this important issue that affects all Australians. I'd love the Daylesford community to be part of this growing movement across Australia to stop this happening on OUR watch.
