- Summary:
-
"Developing any new thermal coalmines, particularly of the scale of the Carmichael mine in the Galilee Basin, is fundamentally at odds with protecting Australians from the impacts of climate change. Opening up the Galilee Basin undermines other industries, such as tourism and agriculture. Coal is very harmful to human health. The Carmichael mine is a risky financial investment and promises of economic benefit are overblown."--Publisher.
