Seen anything about this in the local media? Maybe we missed it.... The longest east/west ice-free coastline in the Southern Hemisphere -- The Great Australian Bight -- and all its unique sealife are in big trouble. The Australian government has granted an oil company the rights to search for oil and gas in the middle of a breathtaking marine ecosystem. This deranged ecocide risks killing the remaining critically endangered Leatherback turtles, Great White sharks, Southern Right whales, Australian Sea Lions, Southern Bluefin tuna and the largest creatures on the globe -- majestic blue whales. The Australian continent has been battered by climate disruption. As unregulated fossil fuel emissions continue to rise seven out of Australias 10 warmest years on record have occurred since 2002. Its time to protect the Great Australian Bight not plunder it.
