URGENT: One billion dollars in public funding could be used to prop up Adani's giant polluting coal mine!
PM Malcolm Turnbull appears to be preparing to give multinational mining company Adani $1 billion of public money to fund a coal-carting railway line from the Galilee Basin to the Great Barrier Reef coast.
Media reports say the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) funds are earmarked for the project.
During the election, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said – on camera – that there would be no public funding for Adani's mine.
We are holding him to that promise. And we don’t want this mega-polluting coal mine.
Billionaire polluter Gautam Adani has met the Prime Minister recently.
When Mr Adani puts on the hard word, we need Malcolm Turnbull to know – we won't accept giving a billion dollars of public funding to a billionaire's company creating billions of tonnes of pollution.
Mr Adani has a mining licence, but he has no social licence.
Sign the petition calling on Malcolm Turnbull to put Adani's requests for publicly-funded subsidies in the bin.
Together, let's call for our money to be invested in clean energy, not wrecking the Great Barrier Reef.
Prime Minister Turnbull, during the election you said there would be no public funding for Adani. Adani's Reef-killing coal mine is not public infrastructure. Don’t waste public money on it.

NO! Stop killing the reef! Allocate these funds towards saving it! Not destroying it!
Leave our barrier reef alone. Please learn by world mistakes
Our government needs to remember that money that their so fond of giving away belongs to the Australian people.We are sick of all these other countries coming in and abusing us.We don’t want to support this as it is another project that will drain our taxes and ruin our land and money not paid back to the Australian people.Enough is enough.
This is just about the Libs seeing to be doing something about employment when in reality they are going to kill a lot of jobs in the tourism industry if the reef dies.
Public funds should NEVER go to any project that is for the purpose of making a profit for private individuals. If the business model stacked up, private investment groups would fund this project; but they’re not, so what does that tell you!?
The reef !!!! It needs us to much WISE decisions.
Have our politicians have given up on the reef? – Another senseless decision-stop the Adani mine
Please don’t destroy our Reef.
We want to preserve our natural beauty this country has. Do not throw it away with short sighted decisions.
Please do not betray our country, our environment. Allowing Adani to follow through with this is a national disgrace! This is our money….we did not give you the rights to do this.
