Aussie Enviro

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The environment minister, Tanya Plibersek, has given a company co-owned by Gina Rinehart approval to develop and operate up to 151 new coal seam gas wells in inland Queensland.

A spokesperson for Plibersek said the Atlas stage 3 project proposed by Senex Energy, which is jointly owned by South Korea’s steel giant Posco and Rinehart, would “primarily contribute domestic gas supply to households and Australian manufacturing – including for glass, bricks, cement and food packaging”.

The Senex CEO, Ian Davies, said the decision was timely “given the current pressures that the east coast energy system is experiencing, particularly in southern states”.

Climate campaigners called the decision a “disgrace” at a time when international science and energy agencies say there can be no more exploitation of new oil, gas and coalfields if the world is to limit global heating to 1.5C.

The last thing that the Australian economy needs is to be doubling down on fossil fuels at a time when we should be leading the world on decarbonisation.”

The Lock the Gate Alliance’s national coordinator, Ellen Roberts, accused the coal seam gas industry in Queensland of “irreversibly damaging the state’s best farmland”.

Labors maybe attempting to placate the baroney baron so she doesn't do her plutocrat thing and pump more money into the "Nuclear in a decade or two" campaign she has her lackey Dutton running around the country bleeting about.

It won't work.. plutocrats gona plutocrat until their power is broken.
