The fight to save Murujuga : Film screening and discussion
The fight to save Murujuga : Film screening and discussion
- presented by Stephen Long (The Australia institute)
The Murujuga Rock Art is a unique 40,000-year-old collection of rock engravings on the Dampier Archipelago in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. These irreplaceable petroglyphs are twice as old as France’s Lascaux cave paintings.
But it is facing destruction from acid rain caused by nearby gas processing. Gas processing that does not need to happen at Murujuga. Australian Environment Minister Murray Watt, has approved a 50-year extension to Woodside's North West Shelf gas project. This could have devastating consequences for the rock art.
Stephen Long, Senior Fellow and Contributing Editor at the Australia Institute on Ngarluma land will present the video report, followed by a Q&A session.
Climate in the Pub provides a regular opportunity to hear from experts on a range of climate-related topics, to meet others in Inner West Sydney who share your concern for the climate, find out what's happening to promote change and see how you can help take action on the climate crisis.
Except for film nights we generally meet at the Merton Hotel, 38 Victoria Rd, Rozelle.
Come from 6.30 for a friendly drink. The meeting will begin at 7pm, and you are welcome to join others for a reasonably priced meal at the completion of the meeting about 8.15.
