The locals from way back kick up a stink about coal-muppets Adani in Australia

From Stop Adani:

“Last Thursday, senior cultural leader Adrian Burragubba issued Adani with an eviction notice, demanding the company cease and desist all mining and extractive activities on Wangan and Jagalingou Country. Adani didn’t comply. 

“So now, for nearly two days, Wangan and Jagalingou people have shut the main road to Adani’s Carmichael Coal Mine site to protect their home lands from Adani’s irreversible destruction.”

 But, coal! How will we live without coal?

“Adani are destroying Wangan and Jagalingou culture and Country. Soon they’ll start digging the mine and damaging the water table. That’s going to drain the life out of the country and kill their dreaming.” 

The Australian dream is highly overrated.

“That’s why Wangan and Jagalingou people have intervened and launched #StandingOurGround, the next phase in their fight against Adani. They are calling on all of us to stand in solidarity with them.”
