Lobbying Federal Ministers
* One of our concerns was, and still is, the development of the Galilee Basin in Queensland for coal mining, and of existing and new coal port development on The Great Barrier Reef.
* We wrote letters to politicians both as a group, and for public signing.
* We designed a special postcard for people to sign (see below).
* About 300 reef postcards and letters were posted. The members of the public we approached were shocked at the scale of development proposed, and very concerned about threats to the Reef.
