18.01.2022 BROOME ANTI-FRACKING PROTEST: Protesters marched through Broome today to oppose an oil and gas proposal in the Great Sandy Desert. The protest began at the town... oval, and marched to a nearby hotel where a meeting was taking place between Theia Energy and Karajarri native title holders. The meeting is to determine if Karajarri will accept Theia Energy's proposal to use hydraulic fracturing to extract oil and gas from an area 150 kilometres south east of Broome. Many of the protesters identified as traditional owners of areas neighbouring the Karajarri native title area. The Karajarri Traditional Land Association and Theia Energy have not yet announced what decision has been reached.

15.01.2022 BREAKING: Today, Wangan and Jagalingou senior cultural leader Adrian Burragubba has issued Adani an eviction notice at their offices in Brisbane. It is our dut...y as Wangan and Jagalingou Tribal people to resist destructive industries that seek to destroy our land and water and interfere with our ancient law and custom. Adani Australia is in clear violation of our sovereignty and territorial integrity by occupying our Tribal lands. This is our home, and we will defend our Country #StandingOurGround #EvictAdani

14.01.2022 A gold mining exploration licence is under consideration by the Victorian gov on Djab Wurrung Country that encompasses Elphinstone, Faraday, Harcourt, Metcalfe and Sutton Grange. The objection period has passed but we are emailing objections to the following addresses: [email protected] (Attn: The Manager) [email protected] [email protected]... You can also sign this petition: http://chng.it/SctrRmgWKV Here is the map of the exploration area: www.syndicateminerals.com.au/harcourt-el007262 Any help spreading the petition would be greatly appreciated. It looks like we will form a group in Metcalfe to stop these kinds of things before they start. Woodend and Lancefield residents were successful in getting exploration licences on their homes withdrawn. Let's help make the next one go away!
14.01.2022 Watching now, so good!! #Naidoc2020
12.01.2022 These burns are completely unnecessary and need to be consigned to the history books. They have nothing to do with the "reduction of fuel load" and everything to do with destroying biodiversity so a mono-culture crop can take it's place. These burns happen all over the continent so send a message to the page if you'd like to help take on the industry responsible!
12.01.2022 Update from the djab wurrung embassy, how to help, and what's needed. At the start of August, Susan Ley federal minister for environment, gave the go ahead yet ...again to Vic Roads / MRPV starting a countdown for the state to remove us and clear the embassy camps. We have time to prepare and we need your help to do that. Monday 24th August Victoria Police executed dodgey warrants to arrest key figures at the embassy, whilst taken off the land raided all the camps with a large task force recording all materials, supplies, vehicles, personnel, locations. By later the next day all arrested have been released but the magistrate refused to acknowledge the embassy as a legitimate place of residence, meaning that important members of the embassy have been coerced into signing bail agreements for various locations away from the embassy. All of these factors are things that should be taken very seriously as the state is slowly and methodically laying the groundwork or pretext to clear out the djab wurrung embassy and remaining protectors. Due to the pandemic and authoritative state response the numbers of people who have been participating on the ground here at the embassy has dropped to all but a handful of committed crew. This is largely caused by the uncertainties created by the lockdown environments, both around so called victoria and Narrm. The djab wurrung embassy is in possession of documentation that proves your residential permissions on country, and there is a lot of essential work that needs to be done. We need caretakers, builders, workers, and people who can come spend consistent amounts of time here. We also need communities and collectives to prepare themselves ahead of time to be ready to get up here as fast as possible. Make your plans and arrangements, have those discussions, and let people know. Senior tribal members request that the defense of these lands is to be lead by women; this is women's country and their strength and direction is the key to winning. In particular we call to women to come to country to talk, work, and heal. Men are also being asked to come to country but are asked to follow the direction of women whilst here. There is space for people of all genders and discrimination will be taken seriously and is not wanted here. Come work, come stay, come defend. Solidarity actions encouraged if you can't make it up, but remember the conditions of the pandemic and act accordingly. Message the djab wurrung embassy page on Facebook or Instagram for more information about documentation and travel arrangements, let us and other supporters know your plans. People of all level of ability and knowledge are appreciated and wanted, there is space here for you.

06.01.2022 In October Djab Wurrung Custodians kicked VicForests out of Bereep Bereep aka Mt Cole. They came back this week so protectors kicked them out again. The machine has left the mountain! Video to come.
06.01.2022 This week a tree sit has stopped logging in Bereep Bereep / Mt Cole in Victoria for three days, halting the desecration of Beeripmo Balug Djabwurrung country. "The Djabwurrung Peoples’ the custodians and protectors of this land give no consent for this to happen and demands that the state halts logging operations and leaves Bereep Bereep. Protests will continue for as long as there is native forestry logging and corporate desecration of country!!!" #SovereigntyNeverCeded #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe #NoConsent #DjabWurrung
05.01.2022 Awesome video from the frontline fight against Venture Minerals in takayna/Tarkine!
05.01.2022 Errinundra Forest Blockade Needs Support Now! For nearly 2 months community members have stalled logging in unburnt forest refuges on Errinundra Plateau in Far East Gippsland that are critical habitat to plants and wildlife that survived last year's horrific fires. Thanks to the blockades, one coupe has been taken off the logging schedule and logging has been halted in the active coupe next door! But support is needed now to keep going. ... Come to the Errinundra camp and help protect this incredible forest. Take part in forest surveys, learn climbing and bush skills and support the community and tree sitter blockading logging. The 2019-20 bushfires burnt more than 1.25 million ha of forest across eastern Victoria including 80% of East Gippsland’s public forest and more than two thirds of parks and reserves. We cannot let VicForests log any unburnt forest! Together we can stop the machines in their tracks and power up the campaign to end logging in East Gippsland and across Victoria. Contact Chris (0418 912 625) to get involved. Car pooling and pick ups from the train are being organised. Visit geco.org.au and Goongerah Environment Centre GECO for more info. #LoggingIsCriminal in a #ClimateEmergency
04.01.2022 This week has been an incredible week of multiple daily actions to disrupt business as usual and refuse to accept the current climate innaction and there's still more to come. Join in! Massive thanks and admiration to 17 year old tripod sitter and the incredible crew who disrupted a major Naarm (Melbourne) highway yesterday saying they refuse to be the last generation. Amazing!

01.01.2022 BREAKING: We, the Wangan and Jagalingou tribal warriors have re-established control of access to our Country leading to the Adani Carmichael Coal Mine site to e...nforce protection of our home lands. We are #StandingOurGround to evict Adani and end the desecration of our homelands. We will remain on country to enforce the eviction notice that we issued to Adani last week. Soon, Adani will start draining the water table and digging their mine, causing irreversible damage to our lands, our sites and our sacred Doongmabulla Springs. They have given us no choice but to take urgent action to protect water, defend our Country and maintain our right to preserve and practice our culture. We have been fighting against Adani’s Carmichael project for 10 years, it is our duty to continue. We demand Adani Australia abandon their Carmichael mine project immediately. #StandingOurGround #EvictAdani
01.01.2022 The 'Nannas for Native Forests' arrived in the forest before dawn, setting up camp with a marquee, colourful banners, cups of tea and picnic chairs, determined ...to stop the logging of WA's South West precious native forests. Inspired by the seven grandmothers who stopped logging earlier this month, a mass blockade is underway this morning with 40 (!!!) grandmothers and their support crew stopping logging in its tracks in Helms Forest.
01.01.2022 There are stacks of amazing sharehouses looking for housemates on eco-shout sharehousing network right now. Look for a sharehouse or post your own ad (it's free) to find like minded people to make a cosy home with. Like this one: Cosy Northcote Sharehouse Rent: $515-$680 Bond: $460 very communal, vegetarian, extra queer friendly, has a veggie patch, chemical free, no tv... We have 3 Rooms available at the Manor! We're proud to live in an extraordinary 7-person intentionally communal share home. Our house has affectionately been nicknamed The Manor because although big (8 bedrooms!), it’s hardly a manor. Rather, it’s shambly, crumbly, full of character, and very well loved by successive generations of big dreaming Manorites who have made their nest here. http://www.ecoshout.org.au/sharehousing?page=1#
