In response to the scientific study published in Nature on Great Barrier Reef coral death following the 2016 mass bleaching event, ACF Chief Executive Officer, Kelly O’Shanassy, said:
Climate pollution from burning the Adani coal and the suffering of our Great Barrier Reef are issues of great national and international consequence that require leadership from all our elected representatives.
The Stop Adani movement today welcomed Labor leader Bill Shorten’s position that he does not support the Adani coal mine, and the loss of bipartisan support for the project, while calling on him to take concrete steps to ensure the mine does not proceed.
Legal advice given to ACF indicates there are clear options to review and if necessary revoke the federal environmental approval for the dirty Adani coal mine.
