The Australian Conservation Foundation invites you to join us in Gerringong to watch the incredible Coral's Last Stand. A stunning a 30 minute documentary about Scott Reef featuring writer Tim Winton, musician John Butler and marine scientists as they travel to the reef and dive its waters.
Located 270 km off the Kimberley Coast in north-west Western Australia, Scott Reef is home to more than a thousand species, from the tiniest coral polyps to giant migratory whales like the endangered pygmy blue whale and the endangered dusky sea snake . Green and hawksbill turtles nest nearby during the summer months. Meanwhile the reef is under threat from a huge and unnecessary gas drilling project to create profits for global corporations.
The screening will start at 4:30PM and will be followed by light refreshments and an opportunity to discuss how you can take action. You can show your support by signing a petition, writing to our Federal MP Fiona Phillips or Environment Minister Murray Watt. You can be part of the widening effort to stop global corporation Woodside and its joint venture partners from potentially devastating the Reef by drilling for gas and oil under the reef ecosystem.
