Inhaltsangabe
Adani's license to mine 60 million tonnes of coal for 60 years threatens Australia’s precious ancient source of groundwater in the Galillee Basin, a vast underground water reservoir, part of the Great Artesian Basin, occupying more than 20% of Australia. How could a company with a globally disastrous reputation for environmental destruction along with a dubious financial status woo an Australian Prime Minister, a State Premier and a handful of regional mayors to back a project to build Australia’s largest coalmine and the world’s largest coal terminal only kilometres from the Great Barrier Reef? This book documents the inconceivable story of how Australian governments abrogated their responsibilities to protect this world heritage icon; bypassing environmental safeguards, thereby irrevocably damaging Australia’s reputation as environmental steward of some of the world’s most valuable natural assets.

Her most recent book, published in 2014, Where is Daniel? documented the disappearance and murder of 13-year Daniel Morcombe, Australia’s largest manhunt.

Adani

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. From fishing villages in India to the tropics of North Queensland, the Adani company is building coal mines at the very time that people are demanding action on climate change. Why? Adani is planning to build Australia's largest coal mine and the world's largest coal terminal. Why, asks Lindsay Simpson, would an Australian Prime Minister, a State Premier and a handful of regional mayors back such a project, risking the future of the Great Barrier Reef and the vast underground water reservoirs in the Galilee Basin? Lindsay Simpson's personal story reveals the truth behind this controversy. As a tourist operator in the Whitsunday Islands, she is determined to expose the contribution of coal mines to global warming, which is threatening the world's largest living organism - the Great Barrier Reef - with extinction. With other activists, she travels from Adani's Indian headquarters to Parliament House in Canberra to lobby politicians, demand answers, and question motivations.She investigates the power of the social movement, Stop Adani, which has captured the public imagination, and sheds light on the workings of the coal industry and its alliances with government. In this astute analysis Lindsay Simpson argues that while Adani might have gained the political will to build the mine, it has never gained the social will of the people. So will the people win this battle over a coal mine? Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers LU-9781925581478
