Malcolm Turnbull’s budget puts big polluters ahead of the community and the air, water, forest and land that sustain us.

As the federal budget approaches, new polling shows the Turnbull government is out of touch with Australians on environmental issues.

Adani has today contradicted its advice to the Queensland government.

The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) and the Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS) say a major environmental breach at the Abbot Point terminal shows Adani cannot be trusted with coal infrastructure and have called on the Queensland Government to seek the maximum penalty possible. 

Funding for Victoria’s parks, reserves and new tree plantations is welcome. The Andrews Government must also create the Great Forest National Park.

The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) says the release of the Energy Networks Australia and CSIRO energy roadmap is an embarrassing rebuke to the Turnbull government's refusal to think long term on energy and climate policy.

The company directors of the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) are likely to be in breach of their duties if they approve a loan for a controversial coal railway in Queensland, according to legal advice received by Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF).

Palaszczuk government is set to grant a water licence for Adani to suck millions of litres of groundwater for its mega-polluting Carmichael Coal Mine in secret.
