15.01.2022 Whatever way you look at it, sinking a new gas well offshore is a dud deal. #stopPEP11 Keith Pitt John Barilaro PEP11 makes no sense environmentally, economically, socially, and there will be plenty of old gas to go around as Australia's trading partners accelerate towards net zero targets. #nomininginsydneybasin Surfrider Foundation Australia Living Ocean Save Our Coast / Stop Seismic Testing The Wilderness Society Surfrider Foundation Manly

15.01.2022 Lurking on our horizon, the menacing PEP11 lease. The Petroleum Exploration Permit 11 that is waiting for NOPTA approval to drill off our coastline between Newcastle and Manly. The decision as to whether or NOT lies with one man - the Federal Resources Minister Keith Pitt. Now, Keith and the tin pot Perth based fossil fuel prospectors are about the only ones that want this absurd project to proceed. The 6 million people who LIVE and work along this coast certainly don't and w...e have made that quite clear. This wonderfully graphic video from #fishpencil shows the consequences of oil spills from around the world. Remember, it was only 2009 when the Montaro wellhead in NW Australia blew, devasting Timorese fishing grounds. Offshore accidents around Australia are rare, but they do happen. Imagine the horrendous consequences for our precious and valuable coast. Any risk is too big a risk. We must stop PEP 11. Send an email to your local MP today.

12.01.2022 Listen to Wendy Frew from Radio Northern Beaches interview David Breeze from ADVENT ENERGY & BPH, Zali Steggall , Jason Falinski and Brendan Donohoe Surfrider Foundation Australia give their views on the issues relating to PEP11. #stopPEP11 This is not the time to start industrialising our Sydney coast with drilling for expensive, environmentally ruinous fossil fuels. https://www.mixcloud.com/TheCoastRNB/

05.01.2022 Good to hear Keith Pitt that you will be making your decision regarding the licence extension of PEP11 based on the "national interest". That means taking into account the billion dollar tourism, recreational and fishery industries, the 6 million odd people along the coast who oppose it, your own House of Representatives in Canberra, and every financial expert and economist who has stated that new offshore gas projects in the Sydney Basin are a wealth hazard! We hope common s...ense prevails over mindless devotion to the corrupt Carbon Club "gas led recovery" government narrative. PEP11 is a dud deal whatever way you look at it, it's time to take it off the table for ever. #stopPEP11 #healthyseas #healthyfutures #cleanenergyfuture #oilspoils Surfrider Foundation Australia Save Our Coast / Stop Seismic Testing Living Ocean Surfrider Foundation Manly Jason Falinski John Barilaro Scott Morrison (ScoMo) Dave Sharma MP See more

04.01.2022 Yesterday was a good day. It was an odd day, but a very good day for Australian politics and our oceans. Both in the morning and the evening MP after MP stood u...p in the House of Representatives and in the Federal Chamber to defend our coast and oppose PEP11 - Petroleum Exploration Permit 11, the drilling for gas in our Sydney Basin. They all spoke passionately, Dave Sharma MP stating that we have a unique responsibility, indeed a duty, to protect the worlds oceans. Julie Owens MP from Parramatta claiming it is nonsense to drill for oil & gas off Sydney, simply absurd. Other MPs stating they have never seen such broad opposition to a project. (Surfrider Foundation Australia Living Ocean Save Our Coast / Stop Seismic Testing ) Overwhelming bipartisan support to #STOPPEP11. But here is the thing, the decision as to whether or not Pep11 goes ahead is down to 2 people.... Keith Pitt and John Barilaro - the Joint Authorities. The Joint Authorities are the ultimate Federal and State decision makers for NOPTA offshore gas & petroleum issues. Now Keith knows perfectly well that PEP11 has no friends except for a couple of struggling mining investment companies in Perth - the current license holders Advent & Bounty Oil & Gas. No one has seen John for a while. So it’s over to you Keith, whatcha gunna do? We've had letters from Keith Pitt in the recent past stating that he is aware of the massive opposition to PEP11 but that he and his government think that new gas is very important. But we think it's time to concede this one Keith. This offshore lease should have never been granted in the first place, the 6 million people who live along this coastline will NEVER let PEP11 go ahead. #lovewhereyoulive #protectwhatyoulove #cleanseas #futuregenerations #stopPEP11 Scott Morrison (ScoMo) Anthony Albanese Adam Bandt

04.01.2022 Surfers and ocean lovers around Australia, we're calling on you to continue spreading the #stoppep11 message! (If you're a Surfrider Foundation member or branch please share this video in your story, we're counting on you!) This Monday a motion was brought before parliament with 8 federal MPs standing up in support of the motion to #stoppep11.... It's time to STOP PEP-11 & here's what you can do. PETROLEUM EXPLORATION PERMIT 11 is a licence for oil & gas exploration in our Sydney Basin due to expire in February 2021 that’s right, just off our beaches between Manly and Newcastle! Mining companies ADVENT Energy, BPH & Bounty Oil & Gas are now pushing for NOPTA (National Offshore Petroleum Titles Administrator) to approve a licence extension and change the title to allow drilling for oil & gas offshore. To add to this, there’s a motion before federal parliament to stop PEP11, which means a decision on the issue could be imminent, so we need to make some noise on this!! Join our #stopPEP11 social media campaign and stand with us in telling politicians that our communities will not let this incredible coastline we call home be put at risk and strongly oppose the industrialisation of our oceans. We have three actions you can take right here on Instagram, links are available in our bio. Using our AR-Filter, head to your local beach or a headland, take a photo and tag. #stopPEP11 @keithpittmp @johnbarilaro and @your local Federal MP. A huge shout out must go out to @Save Our Coast / Stop Seismic Testing for their ongoing efforts. And a thank you to so many people who have shared the message far and wide thank you to you all for your incredible contributions this past week.
