It's like someone pulled out a checklist for environmental crimes --
- build a climate-choking coal mine? CHECK
- put it beside the dying Great Barrier Reef? CHECK
- illegally wipe out endangered koala habitat? CHECK
But this isn’t some cartoon evil villain’s plan -- it’s real. And it might be the worst mining project in the world.
We can still stop it. Siemens is the only company that can deliver a critical piece of technology the mine needs to open. While Siemens pretends it's stuck, we know the contract has an out-clause if the mine breaks environmental laws. And now there’s proof the mine is illegally clearing forests home to endangered koalas!
Imagine being known as the company that killed off the koalas. If we make Siemens feel that pressure with a massive advertising and media campaign just as this story is breaking, they’ll do anything to save their reputation, including ditching the mine. Chip in now -- let's stop the worst mine in the world before it ever gets started.
