Despite a decade+ of opposition Santos are today drilling a huge coal seam gas corehole in the middle of the #Pilliga on private property. The pad has seen gradual changes over the last week Lot 1, DP 757126

@skkoopman @BenFordhamLive John Howard signed 30 year gas deals for puny economic reward. Now we either import it back from Japan or destroy Groundwater resources by fracking, taking us further to the climate brink.
@BenFordhamLive No Ben, you are ill-informed. Gas is not the transitional fuel, it is methane and is the most warming of greenhouse gases, particularly in the short term pushing us over the edge of livable climate. Gas industry has a huge number of lobbyists & PR who have done a number on you.
@jo_noCSG “"You get up to 70 and 80 per cent mortality once you move animals away from their homes," she said.
"It's like saying to you tonight, 'I'm going to knock your home down, no worries, I'll build you another one, but just wait 20 years and in the meantime just wander around'."
@talkingkoala@jo_noCSG Maria Matthes thank you for visiting Narrabri to share your knowledge about threatened species impact assessment of #koalas, of much concern in Pilliga Forest area targeted by coal and gas industries. Your presentation has been much talked about @talkingkoala. #biodiversity
🙏🐨💖🤗 driving home yesterday after @WandoInc conference "Biodiversity Offsets problems and consequences" in Narrabri, just out of Inverell, thought that was a koala, went back to meet this beautiful girl 💕🥰
Government faces backlash as proposed animal sanctuary stuck in limbo while new threat emerges: 'We were promised a world-class national park' https://t.co/LTIQgV7vWP

Based on Santos’ equity share of the Moomba CCS project and assuming it operates at maximum capacity, emissions injected by Moomba CCS would only be equivalent to 3.27% of Santos’ 2024 overall emissions.
Santos has walked back emissions targets in its latest climate report, and is using carbon capture and storage (CCS) as a smokescreen for expanding gas production.
Any emissions captured by Moomba CCS will be a drop in the ocean compared with Santos' current annual emissions.
@capnstarlight@MaryKostakidis True, decades of dispossession, military control, and systematic degradation of Palestinians shouldn’t be ignored. Similarly, murder of 1k innocent people shouldn’t be exaggerated in comparison with genocide of Palestinians.
Incredible presentations from Ecologists Phil Sparks & Wendy Hawes on the Maules Creek (Whitehaven Coal) offsets on false mapping & the lack of ground truthing #BiodiversityOffsets
Thank you Maria Matthes @talkingkoala for visiting Narrabri to provide threatened species expertise to the Biodiversity Offsets: Problems & Consequences Conference. #koalas
The next session of the #Biodiversity Offsets conference is underway after a heart breaking talk from @talkingkoala on the plight of the #Ballina koalas after the Pacific Hwy approval and a speaker panel involving @SueHigginson_ & Kirsty Riddock @EDOLawyers
