Fight for the Great Barrier Reef



The Great Barrier Reef is one of the natural wonders of the world. A $6 billion tourism industry and 60,000 jobs depend on a healthy Reef.

But the Reef is under threat from the most widespread, rapid and damaging set of industrial developments in Queensland’s history.

The Queensland Government is fast-tracking mega port developments, dredging and dumping of millions of tonnes of seabed and rock, and encouraging a shipping superhighway.

The Australian Government has approved the world’s biggest coal port at Abbot Point, 50 km from the Whitsunday Islands.

Help us protect the Reef by sending our politicians the urgent petition below. It’s your Reef, but you’re going to have to fight for it.
