Thanks for saving Bylong!

Please write a very short message, in your own words, to the Independent Planning Commission and the NSW Government for rejecting the risky Bylong coal mine. Congratulate them for listening to the experts and protecting this incredible area for its rich soils, precious groundwater and unique heritage values. This means the historic Tarwyn Park property, the home of Natural Sequence Farming, will not be mined.

True heartfelt thank you for protecting the farmers and the land and water from the coal mine. It worries me enormously that our precious water is under so much threat and so pleased that you have agreed and not allowed the mine in the Bylong Valley.
