Protest the Pipeline & Gas Conference: Don’t frack-up the NT! (SA action)
Schedule
Mon Oct 14 2024 at 06:30 am to 09:30 am
UTC+09:30Location
Adelaide Convention Centre | Adelaide, SA
The Australian Pipeline and Gas Association (APGA) is being held at the Adelaide Convention Centre from 12 – 15 October. Join us for a creative, noisy and impactful protest on the first day of the conference to demand: leave killer gas in the ground! All welcome – there will be a role for everyone 💚
APA (owner member of APGA) plan to build pipelines to transport gas from the controversial Beetaloo Basin fracking project in the NT. The project is a climate disaster, set to unleash emissions equivalent to 2.3 billion tonnes of CO2, as well as posing unacceptable risks to water and country.
Help send the clear message to APA: Beetaloo is a climate bomb - don’t light the fuse!💣
Many other big players in the oil and gas industry will also attend the APGA Conference, including companies like Santos, Woodside and Chevron, as well as government agencies. SA Energy & Mining Minister Tom Koutsantonis will give the keynote address on Monday.
Join us as we call out the gas industry on their lies:
🔥Gas is NOT renewable or clean (it’s a polluting fossil fuel!)
🔥We DON’T need more gas (around 80% of Australia’s gas is exported)
🔥Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) is a PIPE DREAM (the technology is unproven and has failed around the world)
🔥Gas is NOT vital for our economy (the gas & oil industry makes up a tiny 0.2% of jobs and 2.5% of GDP, with companies paying minimal taxes and royalties)
Save the date and plan to be there – more action details to come!
