Congratulations and many many thanks for your far-sighted decision to prohibit gas and oil extraction projects in the Lake Eyre basin.

Thank you Premier, for banning fracking and other destructive ventures, in the Channel Country/Lake Eyre Basin.

Thank you Premier, for your actions to ban fracking in Queensland.

Please speak to your colleagues in other states, to make Australia fracking -free.

Thank you Premier Miles for protecting the channel country from new oil and gas fracking.

Onya Mate!

Well done!

Great to know someone in Government is listening and actually… Taken ACTION!

Thank you for putting the environment before profit and for standing up to lobby groups and corporate interests who seek to plunder our natural world for money. Long may you govern with the environment in mind.

Thank you Premier Steven Miles for protecting Queensland’s channel country and the Lake Eyre basin from fracking and other destructive and exploitative pursuits by multinationals for profit at the expense of nature.

Thank you Premier Miles for this first and significant step to protect the magnificent but fragile balance in the Channel Country and the Lake Eyre Catchment.

My despair at Australia’s carelessness, not protecting our natural world and environmental systems or hearing and respecting indigenous knowledge is momentarily relieved.

Keep up your firm leadership. We have reached a tipping point and every moment counts.

Thank you

I am so happy I opened this email as I usually delete because of frustration as to why Government is failing at caring for our country.

Thankyou Premier for helping to restore my faith, we need to fertilise, not add to the desert.

Thank you for taking an important step putting our environment, communities and climate before gas in the Channel Country.

Thank you so much for taking this step to protect the rivers and floodplains of the Lake Eyre Basin. Thank you for listening to the wishes of the Traditional Owners and the farmers of Southwest Queensland and protecting these important waterways.

I congratulate you on taking this stance.

Keep up the good work.

Dear Mr Miles, Thank you for protecting the channel country against oil and gas exploration.

Dear Premier Miles

I am writing to express my congratulations to your government for protecting the Channel County from oil and gas mining.

We must rapidly decrease our use of fossil fuels to have any chance of keeping global warming below 1.5C and there is no r justification for opening new areas to mining.

Unconventional gas extraction also puts our precious water resources in jeopardy which are essential for our grazing industry and people living in the area.

I also ask that you seriously consider preventing any further new fossil fuel mining projects, particularly those that would release more than the average amount of methane or carbon dioxide during the mining process.

Kind regards

Don Skerman

Thank you for taking climate change seriously – hopefully there is more to come

Well done

Keep up the good work

Stop these rogues from wrecking our country

Thank you Premier Miles for acting decisively to protect the Channel Country from oil and gas. This is wonderful news.

Water is the essence of life and we cannot afford to be risking the limited fresh water supply in the driest continent on the Earth. We need energy but we need clean water even more. Your leadership will protect both biodiversity and culturally significant land, as well as helping lead Queensland to a fossil fuel free future.

I’d like to thank you Premier Miles for bringing in protection for Queensland Channel Country Rivers. Fracking would have caused irreparable damage and your decision shows great leadership. Love your work !

Thank you so much for protecting the channel county from fracking! This shows great courage and leadership! I am really looking forward to other positive changes you will make in your new role!

Thanks you soooo much Premier Miles for showing the leadership in protecting the channel country from fracking. Water is the essence of life and we cannot afford to be risking the limited fresh water supply in the driest continent on the Earth. Yes we need energy but we need clean water even more than energy. Without water there is no life.


Well done you!
