Dear Premier Steven Miles

I wish to thank you sincerely for protecting the fragile eco systems of the Channel Country by preventing exploration and development of oil or gas projects. Thank you.

Premier, congratulations on seeing this critical protection get implemented. You’ll be in power for a long time if you continue to do what the PEOPLE want

What a great thing. Well done!

Thanks for fracking ban – Happy Xmas.

Cheers.

Thank you for protecting the Channel Counrty from. Oil & gas exploration m. It’s a step towards reducing greenhouse our emissions.

Well done Premier Miles. SUPER impressed & pleased you are the new Premier for QLD who has the intestinal fortitude to look after & protect valuable resources.

Dear Premier Miles,


Thank you sincerely for placing a ban on new oil and gas developments in the Lake Eyre basin. I’m so happy to know that the magnificent and yet delicate ecosystem and hydrology of the channel country is now protected from any further harm.


You are a legend. This, on top of your 75% emissions reduction target for Queensland, makes me feel there is some hope for Australia’s climate and environmental sustainability action after all.


Here’s hoping your example will catch on!


Kind regards,

Lyndall

Dear Steven,

Thank you for protecting the Channel Country from oil and gas and even in your first week as QLD Premier!

These rivers are some of the last free-flowing desert rivers in the world – they sustain a clean, grass-fed beef industry and hold tremendous cultural significance for the Traditional Owners of the land.

Oil and gas would have wreaked havoc on this fragile ecosystem and put precious cultural sites at risk. Without this protection, we could have seen thousands of fracking wells drilled across the landscape and millions of litres of water sucked out of groundwater systems.

With this decision, we can head into the holiday season knowing that we have stood with Traditional Owners and the farmers of South West Queensland and helped protect this unique landscape from harm.

Thank you!

Thanks you for having the foresight to protect the Channel Country from fracking. Great start to your premiership.

Great decision, leading by example.

Fantastic news that fracking has been banned in this region! Please continue and work on banning fracking across all of Queensland!! That’s what we want to see. Fracking causes earthquakes and many other environmental problems and we don’t want it to be allowed.

Dear Premier

Thank you for listening and taking action in a world that pushes fossil fuels and thinks nothing of the environment, people and Indigenous Australians

Yours faithfully

Carol Randall

Thank you Premier! Hope this is only the beginning!

Thank you for taking this important step to protect those vulnerable waters and thereby all of the water and land that they touch. You have set a sterling example for the world.

After travelling through the Channel country by vehicle and camel I gained great respect for its beauty and for its important contribution to healthy ecosystems downstream. Thank you for your recent decision to protect this vital area from fracking.

Thank you very much for protecting the unique and beautiful Channel Country from oil and gas exploration.

Thank you for protecting the Channel country from fracking.

It’s such an important ecosystem and it’s fantastic it’s protected for the future.

Thank you for the protections you have introduced to protect the Channel Country from oil and gas fracking and mining.

Thanks so much for protecting channel country rivers, it’s something we can all be proud of for protecting for generations. I’m especially thrilled that precious Aboriginal cultural sites will be safeguarded from the damage that fracking could have done to them.

This is the best news! Thank you Premier for finally protecting this beautiful region from fracking.
