Australia’s biggest climate decision is imminent!
The North West Shelf (NWS) extension forms part of Woodside’s dirty Burrup Hub mega gas project. In a disastrous outcome, the WA Environment Minister put Australia’s climate last, by approving this extension of Australia’s oldest and dirtiest gas plant until 2070!
But the fight is by no means lost.
There is still a critical step ahead: the federal decision. The federal government has the ultimate say in this project, and that is where we must turn our energy now.
We need your help to email key decision-makers to reject the NWS!
Why Act?
- Extending the project to 2070 could lock in over 6 billion tonnes of climate pollution, more than 14-times Australia’s annual emissions!
- Murujuga (Burrup Peninsula) is home to over one million petroglyphs, some of which date back over 50,000 years. These beautiful and culturally significant artworks are eroding from the chemical pollution from the NWS!
- The NWS is completely at odds with the WA Government target for net-zero emissions by 2050!
- NWS will worsen climate change impacts, including jarrah forests collapse, coral bleaching, deadly heatwaves and more!
- If approved, NWS paves the way for the Browse gas project, where Woodside plans to drill 50 wells around the pristine Scott Reef.
- The NWS risks opening the pristine Kimberley region to tens of thousands of fracking wells.
