A local climate change action group has launched a public letter writing campaign opposing new coal projects, and is urging everyone to join in.
The Central Victoria Climate Action Group held the first in a series of group letter writing sessions in Castlemaine on August 17 in the hope of stopping any new coal mines being developed in Australia – and particularly at stopping the so-called Adani mega mine in Queensland.
“We want to send a large number of letters to Lisa Chester’s to remind her that Labor does support action on climate change and both she and her boss Bill have to get off the fence and stop the Adani mine,” group spokesman Trevor Scott said. For the full story see last Friday’s Castlemaine Mail.
