Take Action: Stop Caval Ridge Mine Extension

The science is crystal clear: fossil fuel projects are unsustainable. Yet, BHP is pushing ahead with the Caval Ridge Coal mine extension. This will result in a staggering 440+ million tonnes of CO2 being emitted over the next 30 years along with a massive 545-hectare void of land that is unusable for nature or agriculture. It is simply an environmental disaster that puts profits over our planet. We can’t let this destruction continue. Join us in sending a bold message to BHP: Stop Caval Ridge Coal Mine Extension now! Together we can protect Koalas to ornamental snakes that are already facing local extinction due to past BHP mining.

Act today! Share your voice to force BHP to rethink their priorities and protect our environment.
