#PilligaPipeline Cumulative Impact Map

Narrabri Underground is missing from the EIS

This must be challenged. The underground operates in the same coal seam as the #NarrabriGas Project & it is absolutely critical that it is taken into account as a cumulative impact

'Decade overdue' salt conversion plan could rewrite coal seam gas future Five million tonnes of salt could be dumped in ponds over the life of the coal seam gas industry. Now, there could finally be a better solution.

Here we go again ... 'beneficial waste' from fracking

Billion-dollar proposal to turn coal seam gas waste into valuable chemicals

'... the CSG industry is still grappling with an uncomfortable truth: it has no long-term solution for the solid salt waste'

Santos hit by further delay on Narrabri gas ruling A traditional owner appeal over the project’s approval was due to start on Tuesday but is now expected in March 2026 after the judge recused herself.

Nannas invite you to say no to the SANTOS gas lateral pipeline - the crucial plank of Santos’ dastardly plan to drill 850 gas wells in the precious Pilliga Forest.

Visit our No Pipeline information stall @risingtideaus.bsky.social blockade we’ll help you make your submission on the spot. #Climate

#PilligaPipeline is a high pressure gas pipeline set to carve a 50m wide destructive scar running 50km+ east-west thru #Pilliga. Its formal name is the #Narrabri Lateral and it will link the #NarrabriGas Project to the Hunter Gas Pipeline. Subs are open➡️ www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au/major-projec...

UNRAVELING THE SPIN
Santos & Narrabri Council have signed a non-binding MOU for the supply of dirty #CSG.
The MR from Santos is chockas full of spin, codewords & obfuscations – we’ve decoded it in this series of graphics & asked some important❓s

After 2 complaints the EPA investigated, the second complaint was made by ACF. The Team imaged the pollution with an OGI camera.
Docs reveal GIPA1032 took 10mths, during which time the break tank was removed although nowhere in the docs is this mentioned.

There were no warnings on the fence, but as we stood here filming a noisy coal seam gas (CSG) well in the Pilliga Forest in early March 2024 we became unwell very quickly.

Tracking the Sinking Ground from Coal Seam Gas Extraction - Eos A new model shows how coal seam gas extraction causes land to sink by linking groundwater loss and coal shrinkage, helping predict impacts on farming in gas-producing areas.

In AGU's Water Resources Research, scientists present a new model that shows how coal seam gas (CSG) extraction causes land to sink by linking groundwater loss and coal shrinkage. 🏭

This is all the water and air we have. ALL OF IT. Let's try not to wreck any more of it. Stop coal seam gas mining.

Santos’ brine dams in QLD under the microscope

Produced water from #CSG extraction at Arcadia & Fairview (in Hallett State Forest) is gathered & directed to centralised water management facilities where it is stored for treatment and beneficial reuse.

There’s some really exciting work happening in #AI and #conservation. Do you use data from cameras, acoustics, drones or satellites to understand biodiversity? The Biodiversity Monitoring starter pack might be for you! Point me to your research to be added 🧪🌏

Biodiversity offsets are a scam that enriches developers by greenlighting wholesale habitat destruction☠️

Did you know that mining companies can now buy biodiversity offsets to offset their offsets?

The market-based tool intended to compensate for minings impact on nature leaves the wolf in charge of the hen house but don’t take our word for it 👀 for yourself.
