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

The 2025 update of the "Koalas Or Coal Mines" report has found 23 proposed new coal mines that will clear important koala habitat, including 21 projects that are being assessed under the EPBC Act and seeking approval from the Federal government.

These 23 coal mining projects plan to clear a combined total of 10,284 hectares of koala habitat if granted approval.

The newly re-elected Labor Government will soon decide whether many of these coal mines can proceed.

Can you send an email to the Prime Minister and your local MP and ask them to reject these koala-killing coal mines?


The Shocking Facts

The report reveals:

Tree and Koala 23 proposed coal mining projects plan to clear a staggering 10,284 hectares of crucial koala habitat.
This loss of habitat is equivalent to over 102 square kilometres, 50 times the size of Brisbane's CBD,
Stadium or around 8,570 Suncorp stadium sized sporting fields.
Carbon Fire If these projects proceed, over 7.6 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.
