Save Our Koalas: Take Action Against New Coal Mines in NSW and QLD

A shocking new report has found there are at least 26 proposed new coal mines that will clear important koala habitat, including 23 projects that are being assessed under the EPBC Act and seeking approval from the Federal government.

These 26 coal mining projects plan to clear a combined total of 11,644 hectares of koala habitat if granted approval.

Federal Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek will soon decide whether many of these coal mines can proceed.

Can you send an email to Minister Plibersek and ask that she reject these koala-killing coal mines?

The Shocking Facts

The report reveals:

	26 proposed coal mining projects plan to clear a staggering 11,644 hectares of crucial koala habitat.
	This loss of habitat is equivalent to over 116 square kilometres, 41 times the size of Sydney’s CBD,
	or around 5,822 MCG-sized sporting fields.
	If these projects proceed, over 8.2 billion tonnes of carbon pollution will be released into the atmosphere, exacerbating climate change. That’s more than Australia’s total carbon emissions over the last decade.
