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.

Save our reef and all the living fish.
Any plan which involves coal, shipping and the Barrier Reef should be scuttled. The reef is one of the world’s 7 wonders.
What I’m wondering is who thought this was a good idea. You’ve got to be joking … the reef is dying in places already, PLEASE DO NOT hasten it’s demise!!
Get stuffed!!! Reef over coal!!!
Climate change is such a huge threat to our wonderful world … why would any decent government even CONSIDER a coal mine of this magnitude?
It also shows the utter contempt for the wishes of the Australian people .
Please protect the reef. Find another way to produce energy and jobs. Protect our underground water too. Stop mining , taking the easy way. Instead search for better ways It is possible. Ada I has such a terrible environmental reputation. Greed destroys such amazing environments. You can do this!!!
Do not mine coal, The writing is on the wall. The evidence has been proven, is the Coalition government as thick as it displays. Perhaps to much in financial payments made to the Liberal Party led by MALCOM TURNB
The reef supply’s more jobs then Ardeni will ever
U are an idiot Turnbull all it is a get rich scheme for u u wanker give the billions back to Aust
It is long past time to flirt with coal production at this mine which will destroy so much of our environment & represents a huge backward step.
Dont let adani do to us what they did in India. Our planet is more important than $$$. The reef is already struggling. This is an execution. Wake up Turnbull
