BOUT 170 people joined a protest against coal seam gas mining at the Uki Markets yesterday.
Campaigner Eddie Roberts told the gathered crowd of locals and visitors that the coal seam gas industry was representative of some big businesses being "willing to pollute our world to make money for themselves".
He said the local protest was a small part of a national campaign and urged individuals at the rally to do small things every day to continue the fight against coal seam gas mining.
Mr Roberts told the crowd that the idea that renewable energy could not be used for mainstream baseload power supply was wrong.
