Threatened species across NSW face extinction if the state’s ineffective offset legislation is not scrapped and rewritten to better protect them, according to Lock the Gate Alliance.

Lock the Gate Alliance is warning against any net-zero carbon emissions deal the Coalition reaches that involves opening up a new, taxpayer subsidised coal basin via the heavily criticised Inland Rail project, that would turbo-charge climate change and hurt farmers.

Protect Country Alliance condemns in the strongest terms possible the NT Gunner Government’s approval of the Empire Energy fracking project.

Lock the Gate Alliance welcomes Arrow Energy’s decision to ditch plans to drill hundreds of coal seam gas (CSG) wells in the zone immediately surrounding the Linc Energy Underground Coal Gasification disaster site at Hopeland near Chinchilla.

This morning’s devastating Land and Environment Court judgement will only strengthen the resolve of local communities opposed to the Santos Narrabri coal seam gas project, according to Lock the Gate Alliance.
