#Water4Life16 National Highway Action

header-Recovered2.jpgAustralia's BIGGEST Roadside Demonstration!

  • Saturday 25th June, 10am - 2pm.

Australia's water is under threat from risky gas and coal mining. Mining expansion creates a small profit for a few, yet permanently damages and contaminates water sources for many.

This Federal Election join us to DEMAND the protection of our water resources. It's time our Government stood up against big coal and risky gas projects.

On Saturday 25th June, people from all across Australia will park their cars along our national highways and make a noise that cannot be ignored. Make some signs, pack a roadside picnic, gather your friends, snap some photos and use the hashtag: #Water4Life16

From Darwin to Hobart, Cairns to Perth and everywhere in between, this election let’s make sure they know we want to protect our #Water4Life16!

This is alliance of self-organised community events right across Australia. Register below for a full list of local contact groups and existing locations.
