The people vs coal seam gas mining in the Northern Rivers


In the early morning chill the choir from CSG the Musical sing up a storm against the backdrop of some heavy machinery moving earth to make way for a new toxic waste water evaporation pond near Casino NSW. The intimidating & threatening actions of the digger highlight the disregard of the CSG industry towards the welfare of the community. The choir are not trespassing; they are standing on an adjoining property with the owner's permission.

This was the final day of a week-long community vigil that succeeded in delaying construction of the pond for five days, and drew attention to desecration of our land, air and water that goes hand in hand with CSG mining.

Thanks to Alan for the footage.
