Lismore Rally against CSG.....

The Rally against Coal Seam Gas in Lismore on Saturday was a huge success.
Around 7000 people turned up to peacefully protest against the CSG
Industry, and it is obvious there is no taking a back seat on this issue.
This was proof that if these companies want to 'Frack' with us.....BOY, will they have one hell of a fight on their hands!!
Lismore says 'NO', Dunoon says 'NO', Ewingar says 'NO', Drake says 'NO',
Goolmangar says 'NO', Coffee Camp says 'NO', The Channon says 'NO',
Keerong Valley says 'NO', Nimbin says 'NO', The Alice says 'NO',
Tabulam says 'NO' , Bonalbo says 'NO', Kyogle says 'NO',
Pillar Valley says 'NO', Mallanganee says 'NO',.......and on it goes........

The Northern Rivers says 'NO'......

 

 

We declare that we will learn from the mistakes of America, and in honour of those citizens who now have no clean drinking water, sick children and contaminated land,
we will say 'NO'.........

But more importantly in honour of our fellow Australians just over the border
in Queensland, who are right here and right now suffering under the hands
of this industry, and their failing government. Who have had to leave their homes, and watch their children get sick, and see their livelihoods disappear before their eyes.....we will say 'NO'

We will give our children a future....we will continue to grow precious
food and respect our vital, pristine, life giving water, and in honour of 
our suffering fellow countrymen, and our generations to come
we will say.....

........'NO'.......

 

The areas that have declared themselves CSG free areas, handed their 
declarations to the Mayors.  And now we will have signs 
declaring our Roads Gasfield Free!!.

If you think this doesn't affect you, think again.  Just imagine what an already
parched country like Australia would be like with little to no groundwater,
or contaminated water that is unusable for any purpose.
I implore you to join the Lock the Gate Alliance, and to educate
yourselves on the most insidious threat to us human beings
that is taking place under your nose.  Please, be aware
of what will happen to us all if this industry is allowed 
to go on.  Australia.....we need to say 'NO'
