If New South Wales citizens are to avoid worsening extreme weather events, like floods, droughts and fires, then there can be no new coal mine expansions.
But coal companies want to pour fuel on the climate fire. They have plans for up to 14 new coal mine expansions in NSW.
|
* If approved, the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions from these coal expansions would be equivalent to 15 years of NSW annual emissions. (Two gigatonnes equates to two billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gases.)

NSW can’t meet climate goals, and neither can Australia or the globe, if these mines go ahead.
The NSW Premier and his Ministers can take action to ensure these projects do not go ahead.
